That's why today's young adult have no ability to innovate and adapt to adverse circumstances. You didn't have the internet then. And finding a porno tape or nudie magazine was like finding gold nugget out of the blue. So you had to make due. The ladies of the wish book, with their seductive looks were all you needed in a pinch. You bet I had $18 just burning a hole in my pocket!!!!!
Not sure what age range you fall into but assuming you're early-mid 30s like me we also had Victoria Secret sending seasonal catalogs out too. That was back when only the finest of the fine got the honor of being a VS Angel. It was hell getting those pages unstuck without tearing though.

And if it that didn't work it was time to move onto the big guns- q-tips and rubbing alcohol.

The NFL section for team clothing was so awesome in the early 1970s.
I think it could be profitable for someone to bring all of that stuff back but with a better quality and in adult sizes. I think a lot of people would buy that stuff just for nostalgic reasons.

I don't know why, but the add showing the nintendo reminded me of the time i got the game Battletoads for christmas. And below that, the time me and my brother got a sega genesis with mortal kombat. Christmas was always an awesome time of year.

Let's also not forget that McDonald's had become so big in the 80s and 90s that they fell into pop culture and ended up with toys and a clothing line
Even Barbie worked there
Kind of says a lot about where we are health wise as a country right now
McDonald's restaurants and Happy Meals also had some of the GOAT Christmas ad campaigns too.

The little school I went to for Pre-K and Kindergarten had one in one of the play/daycare rooms. It was always a mad scramble to see who get could to it first. Looking back, that school had all kinds of good shite toy wise
