    I want to shop there.
    You are a bold and courageous person, afraid of nothing. High on a hill top near your home, there stands a dilapidated old mansion. Some say the place is haunted, but you don't believe in such myths. One dark and stormy night, a light appears in the topmost window in the tower of the old house. You decide to investigate... and you never return...

      oh for the days when you could walk into a toy store and find items on the shelf. Now we have Wal-Mart who rarely has anything worth playing with.

          Strong memories of remembering when stores were stocked like that, are what i always remember when I see or put together a display of packaged items.

            Nice to see the Gabriel Lone Ranger along Star Wars...proving the 70s were the best time for toys EVER.

                I love that Stretch Armstrong got top billing over Star Wars.

                  Did anyone catch the address? Next, where did I put my time machine?

                    You notice how all the isles were always packed to the ceiling with product because all the toys were packaged in such big boxes? I just loved those days.

                      I have a smiliar ad like that on tape. And I also have that Gabriel travel Othello game!

                      If your mission is magic your love will shine true."

                        What happened to Garbriel? I'm assuming it was swallowed up in a merger somewhere along the way? Much like LJN, Colleco, Kenner, etc?

                          I have that Othello game too!

                          And I really really wish I could just walk through that store just once. That Fisher Price aisle was enough to get my heart pumping!

                            I think it was Milton Bradley, Chris. My standard size Othello game is an MB game.

                              A little less singing but that's how I remember it.
                              If a Mego figure of God did not exist, it would be necessary for EMCE to invent him.
