I loooooved those finger-man commercials, I still have the pogs he was on somewhere. I also noticed that alot of those commercials are early 90′s instead of 80′s only. That makes me very happy.

80′s commercials ruled; damn kids today just don’t seem to get nearly as much mileage out of cereal or chewing gum with "2 Flavors in 1!"

My girlfriend hurt herself on the happy meal Panthor. She laid down on it and scratched her back really badly.
Holy crap on a stick, I remember all that! Where’s the CRISPY CRITTERS cereal? OMG!
Thank you for making me feel old again. ;_;

Oh man ,seeing those photos makes me dizzy. I really dig (not Dig ‘um) the fact that you have a video section, but where can I download the vids in the pictures not in the gallery?

Commercials are a funny thing. Isn’t it weird how some commercials are just timeless (like the Indian crying at littering) and some disappear after the hype is gone (WAAAAASUP? guys, i’m looking in your direction)

Hehe, crocodile dentist, one of the many croc/gator-themed toys of the last twenty years. I think it paled in comparison to Gator Golf, and comes nowhere near Crocodile Mile, the water slide that helped you achieve your lifetime goal of injuring your kiddie sternum. Sectaurs were cool too; the villain Skulk action figure was my favorite. BTW Matt, you a fan of those wacky Powerlords toys at all? They had some pretty badass figures.

Heh, does anyone remember the ol "Bucket o’ Fun" Mr. Potato head jingle?
"Mr. Potato-head, and his bucket-o-fun … buckets-o-fun … for everyone!"
Dude, I really need to get out more.
BTW: First time I ever posted, but I’ve been a longtime fan of your site, Matt! Keep up the great job.

I am unsure how I linked here, but it was something to do with that maniac SeanBaby and his damned Super Friends page. Hemans Grayskull Castle! Glow Worms! Dream Glow Barbie! Barbie looks a lot different with all of her clothes on. I had forgotten about all of those. Keep up the nostalgic good work!

I think I have been collecting kool-aid points for too long because I have some that look like that in the picture! Eagle chips! I forgot about those my dad was upset when they took them off the market in the mid 90s. Ring pops I remember that old song "it’s a juicy jewel of flavor, ring pop it’s a lollypop without a stick" and that dumb girl in the commerical would look all supried to see the ring pop in the box. She would probaly say "hey! where’s the REAL ring!" The cpk twins I really remember because my cousin got those for christmas and my aunt hid them at my house. The raid one was funny too. I’d yell "raid!" to my grandma she thought it was so funny. I think I was 4 at the time. Dino pebbels I remember b/c my mom had those in an old magazine ad. The X-men my neighbors had those toys. Wolverene’s claws popped out!
