    Raving Toy Maniac Flashback

    RTM was the spot at the start of the webs until 08 or so. Interesting to compare now to then...

    Holy cow, now that's a flashback. I was active on that board, probably starting right around 2000 but maybe a bit before. I see some names there I haven't seen in ages.

      Wow, that's a blast from the past. I don't recall ever posting there (perhaps once or twice?) but I read plenty of posts.

        Surprised my name wasn't on there.

        I'm still friends with Chip Cataldo.

          The reason the top forum is called "Mego Buzz" is because we were hosted by RTM in the late 90s. I was the moderator, I had two choices, keep everything or delete everything. That whole anonymous BS made for some really insane posts, I used to just flush the posts every other week...

            Used to be my first stop when I'd log on to the internet, good times

              My interests in customs started with Flatt's magazine profiles, then went to RTM which is where the rabbit hole opened up. I'm guessing that's where I got Doc's catalog from, unless he had ad space in Tomart's.

                RTM was where I learned that I was misremembering that Mego made a Spidervan which set me on a quest for everything Megolike that Empire made. I was big into SW back then too and used to follow Gus Lopez around to soak up all his info. When I hear the sound of a modem connecting in an old TV show or movie I get flashbacks to the newsgroups days.
