Thunderbirds. I remember the old show when I was tiny - man was it creepy seeing these puppet things going on missions, going underwater, etc. All with the little strings being so obvious. Don't know why, but these dudes were just creepy as hell...

What a blast from the past, said in an Wolfman Jack overtone.

Ker-fucking-plunk, sea-monkeys, too many others to mention individually.

Tried four times to upload various vids so have to settle for a still.

more to come, I'm now too busy researching some of this stuff.

FWIW, I recently found a nintendo NES (I think) and a Sega Master System II (again, not positive, same vintage as nintendo and has a built-in game Sonic the hedgehog from memory). Used as entertainment for guests kids so not in too flash condition, gamepad broken but still operational on Sega.

Anyways, of no use to me, so if any old-game freaks would like they're yours for cost of postage (from 3250 VIC)

geez u guys are cool cats!!!

i LOVED kimba the white lion

around the time of kimba the white lion was another awesome cartoon series(on channel 8 or 'prime'). for the life of me i cant remember the name.. 'the changeling'? or somthing like that.something starting with c. was quite a serious and deep cartoon, about a boy living on a farm in the country somewhere in america. was quite a deep and spiritual show to my mind back then, and i was often quite moved by the show.

im gonna keep thinkin bout this till i remember now...

i know he had a pet deer which his dad always wanted to kill to eat..

damnit!!!

read why mossman was so awesome:

slime was always a favourite for threatening my sisters

Mate, Kimba was the best

I was in a Sunday market once (broke) and what did I see but black singlets with "Who's the bravest animal in Africa?" around Kimba with raised paw (rampant, height to the dexter? anyone into heraldry?) and "KIMBA THE WHITE LION IS THE ONE" across the back.

The *only* item of clothing I've ever seen and WANTED..

Which has made me think.

Reckon something must be sortable for under thirty bucks. I'm gonna get one at last, you fucking beauty.

EG, for this alone I'd bear your children (or do my best to)

I'll post results for any other Kimba-freaks.

That ring's a bell

Was there an international spy-ring involved?

And what about Gigantor

Tra-La-La, La-La-La-La

Tra-La-La, La-La-La-La

One banana, two banana, three banana, four.

Four Bananas make a bunch and so do many more.

Over hill and highway the banana buggies go.

Comin' on to bring you the Banana Splits Show

and that's all I can remember unfortunately

what about (from memory so syntax errors may occur)

"On top of old Horror Hill, in a secret laboratory,

Professor Weirdo and Count Cook were in their monstrous glory.

Three drops of the Essence of Terror, two drops of Sinister Sauce

When the stirring's done may I lick the spoon

Of course, ahah, of course!

And now for a touch of tenderness, but I must use only a touch,

For without a touch of Tenderness he might destroy me! Woops, too much

Better hold your head, it's starting to tick,

Better hoold my hand I'm feeling sick.

Hello Dadda, I'm Milton, your brand new son."

I can do Mr Ed (of course of course) and half-a-dozen others too.

Trying to recall the good ones

What a fucking trip.

This thread is better than 99.8% of all psychedelics.

FWIW Kimba (or any pic for that matter) colour prints on front and back of t-shirt/singlet are readily custom-madeable on-line for less than $30.

Once I edit some images and get one made I'll post a pic.

i love u EG! stinkor was another fave!!!!

we should have a masters of the universe reunion!

sit back blurt doobies and wath the full series.

i loved the fact that he-man always had his moral lesson at the end of the show.

i had a just about complete collection of MOTU. snake men, evil horde all skeletors boys and he-mans possee.

had all the castles, machinery and vehicles, kept them in mint condition to in a wooden chest.

i lived for that show!!!

when i left home mum gave them all to my nephews, who swapped heads and arms and left them all over the farm to get trashed.

i almost cried.

lets not forget the A-Team.

post-781-1258814551_thumb.jpg

all the kids on my street would take turns watching a-team at each others houses. pop corn and red cordial was the score.

good times.: )

Better be paid for!

I'm not covering postage from fucking GERMANY :slap:

Might take them out bush and release them into the wild.

What size eco-threat are we looking at, should this occur?

In all seriousness, if you or any of your family were to visit Oz, I'd be honoured to look after them to the best of my abilities.

Still not paying postage though B) .

yeah man sounds like great fun. I take my Masters Toys with me when i emmigrate... :wink:

I collected them for a long time and i still have some of them that are unpunched and still in the box. You´d love them nito!

i loved the fact that he-man always had his moral lesson at the end of the show.

Totally! Thats the difference between MOTU and some nowadays shows. If He-Man kicked some ass, it always had an important moralic reason! :lol:

Thats a very kind offer Ed! I greatly appreciate that! Well, atm im seriously considering to emmigrate during the next 3-5 years. If i should be forced to sell my property in germany due to the financial crisis im having right now, germany can kiss my ass big time. Seriously. :bootyshake: Maybe i´ll suprise yall guys at the EGA one day! :wink:

Thats Mer-Man! They used the same figure for that one but with a diffrent color! I even like this color better than the one they used for stinkor!
