| 1713 | Article | NLogan | Dancing Coke can, NES, torn knee jeans, mini trampoline seat, possible King Hiss figure or WF Wrestling Superstars Terry Funk in the basket, Power Punch Batman,two plush generic cars, generic wooden bead maze, a dead parrot or upside-down horse head behind you, and some battleship looking toy on the floor, now that is what I am talking about. It was actually a triple-dog-dare as I went straight for the throat but then backed off as I thought it might be too harsh. Nice picture. | vkimo's Christmas Special | Dec 20, 2014 |  |
| 1711 | Article | vkimo | Your double dog dare post is gone, but I accept the challenge none the less.I have one one old picture on my phone that I can find for now. Circa 1992, I'm sporting a 49ers shirt and playing Super Mario on the NES. Notice Batman and Penguin duking it out Rock 'em Sock 'em style. <img src="http://oi61.tinypic.com/m8k75y.jpg")</img> | vkimo's Christmas Special | Dec 19, 2014 | |
| 1709 | Article | NLogan | There are worse fates. Moss Man at least smells like a pine tree. Your celebrity here on the the retro boards will not be forgotten but could be cemented for ever in the halls of history with a picture to focus on. Think George Washington or Abe Lincoln. Likely no one will forget what Mona Lisa looks like. Your third eye only makes it more memorable and endearing. | vkimo's Christmas Special | Dec 19, 2014 | |
| 1708 | Article | vkimo | That is become I am an enigma...existing in all time periods, and none. Foreordained to haunt the retro message boards of the land in hopes of keeping my legacy alive. For the moment all cease to recall the name vkimo, I will be doomed to the toy clearance bin of the great beyond and forced to play endless games of Connect Four with Moss Man. | vkimo's Christmas Special | Dec 19, 2014 | |
| 1707 | Article | NLogan | One of these days vkimo will be back on the west coast. He will then have access to his childhood pictures again. I hope he chooses to use them in a future article. So that we can finally see the man behind the mask. I know that he is not pictured here because none of these pictures are of his decade. The closest one is 1985 based upon the Transformers Autobot dress up playset pictured. | vkimo's Christmas Special | Dec 19, 2014 | |
| 1706 | Article | Vaporman87 | You said it. Those items are more than the plastic and paint they are constructed of. They jump start feelings and memories that are easy to forget in our adulthood. That's why they are precious... what they represent, not what they are. | NLogan's Retro Christmas | Dec 19, 2014 | |
| 1705 | Article | NLogan | Thanks Oldschool and Vapor. Can you guys guess which of my parents gave us the BB guns and cap guns and army gear? Divorce is a hard thing on kids with parents playing for the kid's affections and using the kids to get back at the former spouse. Most kids from divorced families have a higher divorce rate themselves. I have been lucky to be married to my best friend who also comes from divorced parents (hers divorced while we were dating in college)for nearly 15 years now. If anything I learned that no matter what my parents loved me. That time spent together was precious. That feelings of love can be remembered by seeing or picking up childhood objects and remembering the circumstances and feelings when they were received. Maybe that is why I am so nostalgic. Because it is not just HE-MAN, Snake-Eyes, or Han Solo it is a reminder of my parents' sacrifice and devotion to two little boys who couldn't possibly understand what was happening and needed desperately something to cling to to make them happy. | NLogan's Retro Christmas | Dec 19, 2014 | |
| 1701 | Article | Vaporman87 | Well, now that I have some time to make a proper comment... This was a great look into your Christmases past. It was as much a look at you and your brother growing up through Christmas as can be achieved through writing and images. I can look at these images, and read about the circumstances surrounding them, and almost sense what you were feeling. Especially with your parents divorcing... I can relate to that very well. Thanks for sharing this awesome piece of NLogan history with us. It means a lot, this time of year especially. | NLogan's Retro Christmas | Dec 19, 2014 | |
| 1700 | Article | NLogan | The Life Saver Storybook is a must. Some years there was also a giant Hershey's Kiss. | Stocking Stuffers | Dec 19, 2014 | |
| 1699 | Article | OldSchool80s | Loved seeing the pictures especially the ones with the great 80s toys. Merry Christmas! | NLogan's Retro Christmas | Dec 19, 2014 | |
