You mean not even at Celebration would you appear??? You could be sitting next to Jeremy Bulloch or Femi Taylor, just signing away!! 

Hey Jess, no big deal, it was the 80's!! I mean who here who was old enough to get it then, did not have Culture Club?? They were popular!!

I don't think anyone can say anything to anyone about music, we all have liked some groups that have had their share of criticism. I mean who here did not like Vanilla Ice when he came out??? I know I had his album, hell everyone in America did!!! 

I don't think this question has ever been asked in any forum I have ever been to, and even though there is a more mature base over here, I'm sure some of you guys and gals have posters hanging up. If so, what are they?? Pics if you have em.

The only one I have here with me is the most adorable one I could find!!!

Ahh Best Products, what an awesome catalog store.

Then you'll appreciate this story......the first Year the MOBAT was in the Catalog I got my dad to take me there before one of his 2 week trips out of town,  needless to say there were none on the shelves.  So he (being an adult and knowing these things) filled out a form at the catalog counter, took it to the cashier who took our money and put the order in the "tube"and we waited.....

Five minutes later down from the second floor on the metal roller slide came.....MOBAT. Oh my goodness. If it was only that easy these days.

That is a good story.

Oh Logray if all of us only knew. Then we would have gotten at least a couple of Storm Shadows Snake Eyes v 2, Baradas, Amanamans, and other late but limited figures!!! Oh well, at least we have most of our memories!!!!

Speaking of Barada I remember the night I got him. Of course ROTJ was well out of threatres, and were in the mall on a Friday night.  I looked in Toy Box, which I don't think anyone has mentioned yet, and saw a big metal bin with all these new Star Wars figures I had never seen before, and they all had coins!!!!! I flipped out!!! I was digging and digging and I finally found the one I wanted, Barada!!! Oh man was I happy, he was one of the coolest looking aliens and had a coin to boot!!!

Of course it was a time in which I got 20 bucks a week, and so I had money to burn, went and got a Mad Magazine as well!!! Hey I was a well read kid!!! 

Ahh Best Products, what an awesome catalog store. Of course the adults came for the jewlery and electronics, but us kids came for the toys!!! And what a selection they had!!! By the time I found about Best, I was involved with Transformers. The ones I do remember getting there were Skids, Grapple, and Sideswipe.

My biggest memory of that store was going to it with a friend before his dad would take us to Showbiz pizza every Thurdays. Why thursday, I guess so the parents could go out on Friday??? But that was an awesome lil ritual. Best and then an evening of food, game, and entertainment!!!

Ahh the good ole days when department stores still had Toy sections!!! I still remember the now defunct Montgomery Wards and thier fabulous toy section!!!! I was like only 5 or 6, but looking at what seemed to me huge pegs of Masters of the Universe, Star Wars, and by that time GI JOE!!!! I was a in kid heaven!!!! All around me nothing but toys. And then on the top shelf, the 12 inchers. Ooooh there were glorious!!! I think at that time Wards had the greatest set up.

I'm 90% sure that Mervyn's was even a pretty big player for the latter two flicks.  If not Mervyn's, then the same building our current Mervyn's was originally in.  I remember spending hours in the back corner of that store, just staring at all the new Star Wars stuff they always had.

Yea, it was Mervyns. I remember while my mom was shopping, I was in thier toy dept, like always. But when we started shopping there, I was already into Transformers or GI JOE. I still remember getting Shipwreck and Blowtorch and Mervyns on one trip. Oh and on one of my fixations, I had to get a Batman and Robin from the Super Powers line. I never got Robin, but that day I got Batman and Superman, the big two!!! For some reason Mervyns didn't have Robin??? Oh on yet another Mervyns outing I got Darkseid!!! A very cool figure, and big compared to the rest of the Super Powers line!!! I have more stories for differnet lines and different stores but will save for later!!!
