New Article: Fisher Price’s POCKET ROCKERS!

Okay, first of all, that thread about the worst movies you've seen in theaters down below is awesome, and proves that there's a lot more lurkers here than I originally thought. Maybe we should make these kinds of polls and surveys a daily thing? At least it'd let you talk about more than whatever new article there is on a particular day -- in this case, Fisher Price's Pocket Rockers, the miniature tape players from the 80's that let kids listen to Debbie Gibson in super style. You could wear the players, you could wear the tapes -- you could wear pretty much everything contained in the collection, and for my money, that was a much more poignant selling point than hearing two tracks from Tiffany. Some of you will probably remember these...

Hey Jesse and Barbie J,

I just found a Flipsiders auction on ebay and thought I’d pass it along. Enjoy!

Heh, I search for flipsiders, find this page again, find your helpful post Emily (thanks for the thought :) click through, see a picture for a flipsiders game, and look over and see the exact same object sitting next to my laptop. Came in the mail 2 days ago no doubt ;)
2 people just put up "Rock Tour" for sale on Ebay too; and I just won the first of those auctions.

All your flipsiders are belong to us :)

I remember Pocket Rockers. I had the Deluxe Black/Pink one back in ’89. Had a carrying sleeve and came with a Bangles and a Fat Boys tape. They were radio edit style versions timing in at about 3 minutes a song. Iv’e seen the players selling on Ebay now for $50 and the cassettes for about $5 to $10 each.
