@griff 20 minute car rides. Those were the days. In the backseat of the station wagon with just me and my crazy imagination.😆

@he-dad I remember those days. Just looking out the window daydreaming as the soul music my mom played became its soundtrack. 🙂

@admin I miss the good old Toys R Us as well. My job was located right next to a Toys R Us so I would visit there each day on my break. I was able to score quite a few rare collectables during that time. Mostly ones in the G.I.Joe area. I remember getting some Masters of the Universe stuff but because they did not all under my poseable rule for what I would buy.

I was going through some pretty messy divorce stuff around the time the Classics line was released so I didn't pick up much during that time. Hoping they continue to make these figures. I suppose as long as they do they will be collecting money from me.

@bricrue Well the future seems bright for 2023 at least with regards to Origins and Masterverse with all the upcoming retailer info that came out. And with Revelation coming 2024, I have to imagine figure releases will continue through 2024 at least with Masterverse (but perhaps in refreshed packaging?) And we have Masterverse comics with a Trade Paperback coming in September that at least teases the possibility of more comics coming beyond the initial four issues. So the Motu resurgence continues! 🙂

In addition to missing the PS2 / early PS3 experimental era of video games (on reflection, I'd add late PS1 era as well), I miss the old video game commercials. They were just so crazy back then.

Take the Sega Genesis era:

Or the Segata Sanashiro Japanese Sega Saturn campaign:

Or even the PS1 ads with Crash, Sweet Tooth and Lara Croft:

The few we get today? Nowhere near as memorable.
