| 5467 | Article | twcfan92 | There's a toy that I've spent the last few years looking for with no leads. Which isn't too surprising considering that I only remember a few details. I got it for Christmas from my mom in 1989. It was my favorite present that year, and I remember taking it with me when we went to my grandparent's house later to celebrate Christmas with them. Anyway, whatever it was was in a grey box that looked like a briefcase. It had a white, plastic handle. What was inside? I have no idea! I believe it had something to do with cars, but that's just a good guess. I've done several Google searches. I also purchased and reviewed the Sears, JCPenney, Service Merchandise, and Radio Shack Christmas catalogs from that year. Nothing! At least nothing that made me think "that COULD be it." So it probably came from a local store that went out of business years ago. Damn. I did, however, find all of the Micro Machine light-up buildings and cars we got that year, but those were fairly easy to find. | Aug 09, 2021 |  | |
| 5468 | Article | onipar | @TWCFAN92 Ah, that's the hardest thing, when our own memories betray us. Your search sounds a lot like things I've done in the past to find lost things. I'll probably write an article about my search for a letter I wrote to a comic book in the 90s. The grey box thing sounds so familiar to me too. I'm going to think on it a while. It does feel like it could be a car type toy. Like maybe a little track with cars inside. | The Things We've Lost | Aug 09, 2021 | |
| 5469 | Article | echidna64 | Great idea for an article and that is an awesome picture of you as a 90's kid. | The Things We've Lost | Aug 09, 2021 | |
| 5470 | Article | onipar | Thanks, echidna64! I've used that pic a couple times now, but I'm always finding something new in it I want to talk about. Like those cases of Micro Machines behind me. I still have those! I need to write about that one day too. | The Things We've Lost | Aug 11, 2021 | |
| 5515 | Article | Benjanime | i actually didn't catch much of this show on TV airings, but i did watch various VHS tapes from my school classroom around 1996-1997, in total i think we all watched at least three of them throughout the school year, and it was the only time we saw them. i highly doubt we'll ever get a show like this ever again for a modern generation, though i don't count the netflix follow up. | Edutainment Station: The Magic School Bus | Oct 03, 2021 | |
| 5570 | Article | RetroOtaku620 | I actually have the complete series on DVD. Wish I had the Halloween special on videotape, though. | Edutainment Station: The Magic School Bus | Dec 14, 2021 | |
| 5457 | Article | Vaporman87 | Great list you have here! A nice mix of classics, oddities, and licensed properties. The Goonies II is a title I wish I would have owned back in the day. Knowing now that it was intended as a sequel to the film makes me feel like I missed out on the further adventures of the gang. I remember bits and pieces of my time playing Blaster Master with my stepbrother. Good times. Mike Tyson’s Punch-Out and Double Dragon are simply unforgettable experiences. The fights in Punch-Out still give me anxiety! I would add Ninja Gaiden, Contra, Golgo-13, Bases Loaded, Metroid, and several others to my own list. I absolutely WORE OUT Bases Loaded. Loved that game. Ninja Gaiden opened my eyes to a new type of game… a cinematic style. Really look forward to what else you may have in store for us! | The NES Games I Remember Playing:Part 1 | Aug 07, 2021 | |
| 5459 | Article | Benjanime | ah a fellow monster party player, nice! | The NES Games I Remember Playing:Part 1 | Aug 07, 2021 | |
| 5462 | Article | onipar | Really great list! It's funny, many of these were games I used to play as a kid too, and strangely (even though I own them), I haven't revisited many of them in years (like Jaws and Double Dragon). Monster Party I do pop in around October every year. | The NES Games I Remember Playing:Part 1 | Aug 07, 2021 | |
| 5465 | Article | Hsering77 | Thanks for all your feedback.I tend to write another article soon... | The NES Games I Remember Playing:Part 1 | Aug 07, 2021 | |
