Saturday, March 7, 2009. Saturday Morning Cartoons: Shirt Tales. Teams of cute, furry creatures abounded on Saturday Mornings while I was growing up. So let's add the Shirt Tales to the bunch. The Shirt Tales were a gang of cute, cuddly animals who lived in a large tree and solved mysteries. Their gimmick: Their shirts would light up with whatever they were thinking/feeling. (I wonder what my shirt would be saying right now? The gang was comprised of:. He spoke like Bogart). The Shirt Tales Game. Bad Toy...

Friday, March 27, 2009. Joe Friday: Sword Action. As a kid, I wanted to be one of two things when I grew up: Engineer or Ninja. Unfortunately, I became neither of these. However, perhaps I would now be a world class ninja, if only the following. Were available to me in the 80's:. It's a gosh darn replica of Snake Eye's sword! Imagine dressing all in black and creeping around the neighborhood with this bad boy. My foes would cower before me in terror. Version for $40.00. Labels: G.I. Joe. I had no idea ho...

Saturday, January 10, 2009. Cartoon Saturday: This is Ghostbusters? If one were to mention Ghostbusters. You would immediately think of: Ray, Winston, Peter, Egon, and Slimer. So who in the heck are these guys? I mean, a monkey in a fedora? That ain't no Ghostbuster. And what's up with that flying bat thing? A poor substitute for our junk-food binging Slimer. And what happened to Ecto-1? Having the heart of a secret agent, I did a thorough investigation of this cartoon. Alright, I went to IMDB. Who bette...

Thursday, April 2, 2009. Bad Toys: The Rock Lords. Vehicles/Dinosaurs that turn into robots = Cool. Rocks that turn into robots = Bad. I'm not sure what the Go-Bot folks were thinking when they came up with this concept. But, unfortunately, I received a bunch of these one Christmas. As robots, they could easily be played with. But turn it into a rock, and all you could do was pretty much chuck it at your sister/enemies. Labels: 80s Toy Commercial. Wednesday, April 1, 2009. I believe in my entire lifetime...

Sunday Game Day: Little Kong. Gather round all and I will tell you a tale of absolute wonder. Back when I was but a little whipper-snapper we didn't have your fancy dandy portable video games that could fit in the palm of your hand. Oh no. We had fancy dandy portable video games that looked like this:. Labels: 80s Toy Commercial.

Nerdlander: Wednesday Reminisce: A Toast to Star Trek
http://nerdlander.blogspot.com/2009/04/wednesday-reminisce-toast-to-star-trek.html
Wednesday, April 8, 2009. Wednesday Reminisce: A Toast to Star Trek. Face it. As kids we went to fast food restaurants because we either saw their commercial a billion times and wanted to fit in or we wanted to get the special toys/promotionals that were offered. And one of the greatest promtionals was Taco Bell's 1984 Star Trek the Search for Spock Glasses Set. These glass ruled the universe, and I ate for their for weeks to obtain the entire set! My stomach lining has not yet recovered.
