Nothin like GAFin' at 35000 feet
 
I was spoilt and had just about every toy you could think of. Robocop met his fate with an air rifle!
I hear that! :messenger_tears_of_joy:

My AT-AT Star Wars walkers, Darth Vader models and various others died a fiery death of nail polish remover and a magnifying glass..

A tragic battle it was. A lot of good soldiers lost that day, Tatooine sure was hot.. 🫡

Yeah! I loooved them. The car was my favourite. The truck/van has a bit that comes out which is like a prison cage for the bad guys! You can see it in this and it shows all the other toys in the set :D

I had another robocop figure this one and I took it everywhere with me. I remember I lost his helmet and I was crying and begging my dad to get me a new one but he wouldn't lol.

I actually wanna buy those again but that figure is going for like £60 lmao
Oh man, they were the nuts! I seriously never knew they were even a thing! I was probably begging my old man for Ghostbusters stuff at the time.

Yeah prices for old stuff is crazy, I keep checking up my old stuff and wishing I kept it :messenger_unamused:

I played with Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Legos and Ghostbuster toys when I was a kid. But I always found G I Joe and Transformers to be boring and lame back than

Same, though add Hot Wheels and Power Rangers to that list. The OG mega zords were so rad.
 
I'm not entirely sure about the tank itself, but I definitely had that exact Lion-O figure.

I absolutely love the packaging of those old toys, it's such a nostalgic touch
 
I'm stopping after these, but they hold a strong nostalgic value for me

Jurassic Park T-Rex:

From Independence Day:

We could talk about Lego, but a few years go my younger cunt brother sold all of my old Lego collection for practically nothing after he gained access to it when our mother passed away
 
What year were you born just out of curiosity? I was born in 1982 just so we can reference what toys we would have had. The above I've never seen or heard of before.
1979 :messenger_sunglasses:

The spacemen for that toy had magnetic feet, and the ship etc was bloody expensive at the time. I swear it was that. I was young though and even back then they were rare.

I remember kicking up a right stink once in the town centre having a tantrum for this Ghostbusters toy.. (I rarely ever did as i'd get a clout, but I needed it so bad..)

And I've still got it to this day :messenger_tears_of_joy:

Same! I still find it fascinating when you really think about it

If science is able to get to the point where we will be able to bring back extinct species, I would want them to bring back Raptors and Tyrannosaurus Rex. But than there's the issue of this becoming a possibility:

So yeah there would have to a massive amount of safeguards put into place to prevent the dinosaurs from escaping

I'm not the type of guy who says something is impossible, but this is basically impossible

We have DNA fragments from dinosaurs, but because they went extinct 60 million years ago, it's unlikely we'll ever recover usable DNA

Have you seen these birds? They're like a throwback to the dinosaurs, I find them just as fascinating

A lot of a dinosaur will be written inside a chicken bone its only a question of working out what is what

Those are some of my favorite animals due to how much they look like Dinosaurs but I would be sure to make wide berth since I'm pretty sure those are very territorial



These massive Turtles are one of my other favorite animals just due to how huge they are and how much they look like Dinosaurs

I assume you're referring to the reverse engineering idea. It's definitely not bringing full dinosaurs back. What you'd end up with is chickens with some dinosaur traits, not actual dinosaurs :messenger_pensive:

In crystal palace park dinosaurs are shown like that or something similar
