5491ArticleVaporman87Yeah some of these are pretty undesirable. One that I liked a great deal but just could not get enjoyment out of were Sugar Daddies. Way too chewy and hard to eat.  Sep 09, 2021View
5493ArticleMr Magic@Vapor: I couldn't chew Sugar Daddies either. WAY too tough for me!Halloween Candies That Haunted MeSep 09, 2021View
5510ArticleoniparOuch, harsh! :-p I agree on the Circus Peanuts for sure. Those Peanut Butter Kisses are pretty bad too, but I'd still eat them in a pinch. Milk Duds are definitely too hard and sticky, and yet they were such a staple in my treat bag every year that it just wouldn't be Halloween without a couple of those little boxes rattling around. Pixies Sticks are fine for straight-up sugar powder. Not the first thing I'd reach for, but also not something I'd trade away. Almond Joys and York however... those I straight up LOVE! Nice list here. Getting me excited for Halloween. Halloween Candies That Haunted MeSep 24, 2021View
5498ArticleVaporman87There is no doubt that the mid-80s (into the '90s) saw a plethora of "crazy", "wacky", and "gross" toys. Slime led the way. You had toy sets like Mad Scientist, The Slime Pit, and Creepy Crawlers. Then it spilled over into actual figures and such, like with Sectaurs, Mad Balls, and Boglins. What a time to be a kid! Great to see another article from you. The topics so far have been right down my alley.Mad Scientist: A Great Forgotten 80s ToylineSep 15, 2021View
5499ArticleBenjanimeif there was a toyline that defined "boys only" it was certainly items like this, i honestly miss these and unfortunate that the years just flew by for them to just fade into obscurity.Mad Scientist: A Great Forgotten 80s ToylineSep 15, 2021View
5508ArticleRetroOtaku620That looks awesome! Makes me wish I was born in the 80s so I could play with that.Mad Scientist: A Great Forgotten 80s ToylineSep 22, 2021View
5500ArticleJulieI never had the NES back then, but the Atari 2600 and the Master System a few years after. But when I could get my hands on the Sega Genesis in 1991, I got mindblown with its incredible titles, full of velocity thanks to the 7.8 MHz Motorola 68000 processing speed and the unforgettable sound quality from the Yamaha sound chip, giving us those magical musics from Streets of Rage just to name a brief example. I kept the Sega Genesis until I got a Sega Saturn in 1995 and didn't have a SNES until 1996, a PlayStation and a Nintendo 64 in 1998. Article full of charisma and a delicious feeling of nostalgia, the result of a heart in love with the magic of video games. You're so amazing, my sweet @Benjanime!❤❤The NES and Sega Genesis Console WarSep 15, 2021View

5531ArticleoniparNice article! Don't know how I missed this one. I had the NES and then the Genesis too. Were always late adopters, so by time I was choosing, it was between the Genesis and the SNES. For whatever reason, the Genesis really captured my attention and that was the one I begged for, finally getting it as a graduation present from elementary school. I never did own my own SNES as a kid (got one as an adult when I started collecting), but my neighbor had one, so I got to experience a little of the main games at least.

5532ArticleBenjanime@onipar oh awesome! always a nice treat to get a game console as a gift :) i can't even remember how i got my genesis really, possibly coming from my older sister's allowance, or just my stepdad buying it but i was a toddler at the time so who knows lol. thanks for reading!The NES and Sega Genesis Console WarOct 19, 2021View
