I remembered all that cool crap from the 80′s. loved it. Would love to find some on ebay to show the kids how geeky we really were.

I loved Zany Zappers. I had every color they made. The black ones were my favorite. I & my friend Sheryl would wear them at night in our silver plastic sweat pants & top pretending to be aliens. We would go around the neighborhood scarring kids while looking in their windows.

Hah! I had a pair of these & I used them to frighten several people in my neighborhood (people I didn’t know) rather badly as a kid — I would put them on behind a full-head Don Post “Crimson Skull” mask (which I still have actually. Jeez.) & then peer into their windows while triggering the flasher.

Man, what a jerk of a kid I was.

Something tells me some cheap Hong Kong company still makes something similar. They just have to.

Haha, that looks kinda funny. I might buy one of those just to laugh at it then take it apart, only to be thrown in the back of my closet of no return.

You know…one day we’ll all be sitting around by the fire place surrounded by out great-grandchildren, and we’ll have to look at them and say, "Y’know…in my day…toys used wires to make them work, and we LIKED IT!"
