I’ve got them on eBay for just a minimum bid of $19.99 if anyone’s interested in trying to get ‘em. CLICK HERE To bid. Share this [...]

The Snoopy Snowcone Machine
August 2nd, 2011 
rberry Remember this piece of garbage? Sure, the idea of making your own icy treats at will was alluring, but when you got the damn thing, it was so damn damn disappointing. Damn! You were pretty much just press blocks of ice against a rotating cheese grater. Great song, though. Share this article
Lite Brite Memories
July 28th, 2011 rberry One of my favorite toys in the ’70s was Hasbro’s fantastic Lite Brite. It was simply a light box that you could make pictures with by inserting different colored pegs into holes (just like your mom does every Saturday). I think I had one round 1975 and quickly learned the “delight” of mixing different colors [...]
Han Solo vs. Greedo Bookends
June 9th, 2011 rberry This wonderful pair of bookends came out in 2006, and appears to be sold out everywhere I can find it on the net at this point. I love the way Solo is just slumped down. in his chair. Wouldn’t surprise me to see this going for $500 plus now. In honor of this great work [...]
Check Out This Awesome Wood Stacking Toy

Not To Put To Fine A Point On It…
April 13th, 2011 rberry Wow! Hard to believe it took over 20 years for someone to actually make a blue canary in the outlet by the light switch! You can get one of these gems at ThinkGEEK for just $12.95. However if you’re thinking of using it as a lighthouse bulb, you’re just setting the poor guy up to [...]

January 10th, 2011 rberry This hockey game from the ’80s has to be one of the craziest toys I’ve ever seen. What a bizarre stretch to put the magic of pro wrestling with the grace of hockey! This box art is totally insane and raises so many questions. Why is Jake the Snake using his serpent for a hockey [...]
Cool Lego Video
January 4th, 2011 rberry This just makes me feel all glowy with goodness. Love the semi steampunk vibe to the music and main character. And it certainly makes me want to go and play with some Lego, as well! I wish more toy companies would make creative things like this to promote their product. Share this article
