    Wow! Thank you for posting this. Nice to see 80s toys get some love.

    So many awesome toys! MOTU, She-Ra, Care Bears, Rainbow Brite and My Little Pony. I love those toys.
    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...

      I had all the MOTU toys seen here. I was a completionist! The Bashasaurus was one of the best vehicles. The mace came down with some serious force!

      I actually had most of the Go-Bots stuff too. Sure, their cartoon was lame compared to Transformers, but Go-Bots were more affordable than TF overall.

      We had Children's Palace with the Panda mascot in Lexington. Found some old store stock in that store before it went out in the early 90s, including a carded AHI Spidey cycle!

        I never realized how expensive Robotix were.
        No wonder we never had got them for Xmas.

          I'm surprised there's no G.I.Joes or Transformers in that ad.
