What were the other toys of the 80's where the figures almost looked like CP, but smaller and had magnetic feet?  Had a bunch of those too.

One other toy set that got tossed were my entire collection of Mattel food fighters. Had 'em all with boxes and everything. Bought them from a clearance shelf for about $30 total. The frying pan, the bus, the grill, all the foodies, and more I don't remember.

Okay, trying out this image posting thing for the first time. Bear with me here....

Got in Takahashi Meijin no Whatjamacallit and a fresh in-box 5-way MultiTap! Came with all the inserts and everything!

And interestingly enough, the tap may have unlocked a potentially unexplored secret within Takahashi...   8-[

EDIT: Actually, it just looks like an issue with my extension cord. Still, wicked.

My purchase this week for $15... Thank god it has training wheels :)



Ya $15 is a good price but once you find out the charger and the battery that did not come with it will run ya close to $150 you stop smiling.

Going to get a motorbike battery or an after market one for this thing as the kids are waiting with there helmets on. :(

as it won't run much faster than approx. 1.5mph anyway, tell them to use their feet instead :)

Neat little chopper.  Didn't know Peg Perego made motorized kids toys.  Wife loves Peg Perego.

That's pretty tight! Are they "glued" to the cases? do you display them at all?



No, the magnets are not glued to the metal tins. They just come packaged in them.

They will be displayed once I install the SPONTAN board (a piece of metal that can be hung on a wall like a picture frame) in my game room :D
