    1978 Toy add for a massachusetts Toy Store Featuring Star Wars

    I found this on the back of the March 19th South Middlesex News Sunday comic book. I've kept it because it's actually the very 1st edition
    Looking for Infinite Heroes Robin and Catwoman
    And Super Powers Batman

    Didn't have any Star Wars figures, but I did have Finger Pops, and my friend had the Slime w/ Worms.

      Wow, finger pops. I had completely forgot about these simple little toys. Did these sell? even if they barely moved, I'd imagine Kenner did pretty darn well with these cheap to make items.
      WANTED - Solid-Boxed WGSH's, C.8 or better.

        Ahhh...brings back memories, doesn't it?

        YouTube - 1979 Kenner Finger Pops commercial

          I'm jealous. You guys had Finger Pops!

          I'm also digging that Darth Vaders face looks more like a carved pumpkin!
          It's all good!

              Oh yeah.
              We had slime.
              And I remember finger pops, but we never had the store bought ones.
              My dad's factory made something similar that he brought home for us to play with.
