Pictures of childhood toys you miss - Page 8

Aw crap, I'd almost completely forgotten about my "Bulletman" action figure:

This.

Loved Domino Rally.

Anyone remember the toy set that you build the tracks then you hit a plunger thing to use air to move the car down the track? it was a mid 90's toy. I just can't remember it.

was that the one that was tubes?  I had one that was interconnecting tubes (like Logan's Run) and each 'car' had a plastic fill around it (that effectively filled the tibe diameter) so that it would hurtle through the set.  Actually, it won;t be that since that was a late 70s one.

Scalextrix.  I miss that.  The last time I "played" with that was a student and we got about 7 sets and built a massive track that went all through my mates flat.  His girlfriend was not pleased when she came back from her study course.

It looked mint though, 4 levels, from the dining room to kitchen, over under chairs.  Will need to tap him up to see if he's still got photos

*siiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiigh*

Some I haven't seen posted (or were broken images):

(I still have pieces of this, including the Ark. Found the head of the Swordsman the other week. Never had Marion; she was apparently mega-shortpacked.)

Still have this somewhere:

WOW. Totally forgot about that, but I had one too and loved it dearly. That line there is spot-on. 

I'm starting to by things I never had as a kid, or that I only had a few of.  Heartbroken some of them have crept up to "collector" prices, especially, Starcom

The gimmic was that the doll actually smelled bad.

 

Did any of you have a Stinkor doll?

Was the smell bad?

Yes.

Surprisingly yes.

He actually smelled? And not in the awesome new action figure plastic smell?

I wonder if the Stinkor dolls still smell 25 years later?

What did he smell like?

Pachouil oil was mixed into the plastic and yes they do still smell after all these years

Close, but the one I had was a bit more realistic. I don't know what substances they used to create the product but it was definitely sculpted to carry the facial features and the suit was made with real texture to it.

 

*edit* I think we have a winner :)

 

lol Thats the real batsuit from Returns. You had 1?

Didn't have tracks, but I used to love my Air Jammer Road Rammer
