BurgerKing had awesome Barnyard Commando toys!

 

[relaxor]

Not the most impressive game, but I always thought the idea of Yoda sending Luke off on random errands was a cute concept...

 

[vid]

Couldn't find a picture online, but surely someone else remembers/loved these things?

I think I'm the only one who remembers this cartoon. It had an awesome theme tune, second only to Thundercats (perhaps on par Mysterious Cities of Gold and Ulysses 31, but it's close).

The little girl, the dog, and the talking car all seem familiar, but I remember nothing else about the show.
Probably something that was on mornings for years that I would sometimes watch but not pay attention too.

I love this thread so much, so many memories going on in my head when I read it. So I will try to contribute with this gem:

funny story about this book. In first grade, we had secret santa-type thing where we all brought in gifts under $10, and exchanged with someone in the class. We sat in a circle, played hot potato with the gifts. My best friend at the time got my gift, Lyle Lyle Crocodile, and started to cry cause it wasn't "cool." Fuck him, I loved that book.

ONE MUST MOTHERFUCKING FALL!!!!

Holy shit I was amazing at that game way back when. My dad would always kick my ass until summer hit and I learned all the combos for the first bot (including all finishers) and from then on I destroyed.

I love One Must Fall soo much.

 

[AceBandage]

The young adult junior novels were great as well.

Probably the first book I read that delt with puberty and sexuality.

I owned this bad ass.

Motherfucker smelled funky tho ( Must have been the weird rubber.

I never had one as a kid (but always wanted one) so a couple of years ago my GF bought me one off eBay and it now has pride of place on the drawers in my bedroom, the funky smell long since worn off. It's everything I had hoped it would be.

Yes I am a 30yo man-child. o/

I was watching Sesame Street with my son the other day and there was a little nod to that guy. I instantly longed for old school Sesame Street.

Pole Position is unquestionably the top of 80s tv themes. I was annoying my friends at the weekend by playing it.

Man, I remember getting those books from scholastic readers in elementary school. I loved getting them just for the flip animation stuff in the corner. Didn't really read them hahaha.
Anyways, I lost so many times over.
