Finally! Thank you Matt for posting a picture of T.H.I.N.G.S. on here. Those were the most sought after toys in my 4th grade class. I had about 6 of them but I stupidly let one of my friends borrow all but one. Then he moved to Florida and took my T.H.I.N.G.S. with him. Ever since then I’ve been trying to remember what those toys were called. The "Lance-A-Lot-O-Rings" one was the best.

Well Matt, you’ve inspired me. I plan on attending Lazer Tag Academey next Fall. And if they won’t take me, then I’m off to Bovine University.

Bionic Six was one of the few "action" cartoons I liked. Right up there w/ Dinosaucers (another show in need of X-E treatment).
As for Fat Albert, I used to like it when I was a kid but when the Animaniacs were being "leased" out in one cartoon I enjoyed how they made fun of it.
"We preach pro-social values til they spew out your ears!".
I love Fat Albert for being funny and still dealing with issues that can not even be brought up on kid’s television today. I am sure Matt could have fun with the more extreme episodes: http://www.filmationarchives.com/sinister.htm
Unfortunately, the changes they have made with the director and star for the live-action movie took me from slightly optimistic to worried. Kenan Thompson (Saturday Night Live and Kenan & Kel) will star as Fat Albert http://filmforce.ign.com/moremovies/objects/34842.html
Yay! The Misfits! I love them almost as much as I love… Ralph Wiggum. I know Dude McGuy understands.

Most of those objects displayed are ones I remember. I’m in the mood for a MCDLT. They need to come back out with them. Those THINGS were cool had two of them. The frog one and the Gorilla under the bridge. Hope they are future reviews.

Here’s some trivia: Dinosaucers never got any toys. Isn’t that a ripoff?
Next time you’re at a cookout or buffet, try making your own McDLT. It’ll be cool. And it’ll be hot.
What does the D stand for?

Got milk?
Hey, Matt, I just came across a complete (if a bit markered up) Who Framed Roger Rabbit? coloring book. There are coloring pages, plus "exciting activities". Interested?
"D" stands for drippy. All of that fresh lettuce and tomato really made a heck of a mess when plopped onto a greasy burger.
Oh, and does anyone know how to get the smell of cat pee off of things? Our cat has some kind of incontience issues, and relieved herself in my kids’ playroom. It reeks. I tried rug shampooing, Febreeze and bleach and water. Is this one of those things you use tomato juice for? Like skunk spray?

I think #9 is Cricket. If it is, I so suck for remembering that. A guy, drawing blanks on a number of the action figures, but I sure as hell know my dolls.

"We’re the Monster Squad!
Gotta get ‘em, gotta get ‘em
We got work to do, work to do…"
"Well, there was Steve, but he doesn’t count!"
"Doesn’t count!"

Monster Squad was a decent movie. One of my favorites as a kid.
