This barely made the cut but I think it's hilarious. Not many people had computers in the 80's, for obvious reasons.

Monitor and Mouse not included.

One of the greatest days of my life.


Right up there with waking up Christmas morning to find this under the tree...

Combat was the shite. I'm trying to think of things no one ever mentions.

I think these lost a lot of appeal when they changed the wrapping from what it was DESTINED to be. For some reason, it makes them less appealing.

Who needs an ipod when you can sport this?

Toy record player. For those that are too young, they really don't know what this is.

This thing was called Roller Racer


How many of the young kids know what this is?

I used to take my boom box and cardboard box to the park on Saturdays and breakdance with all my friends.

Great thread 76. I was born born in 74 myself. I can relate to all products shown. I think the thing I would say about the 80's at least in the Reagan years was I just felt safe. I was just 6 to 14 years old during that time but that's the way I felt. I hope my children feel the same when they are that age. Obama will be out when my oldest hits 6 so I have that going in my favor.

shite, I wish I still had some of my old stereo components. Some are worth a lot now.

I remember thinking this was the coolest car in the world, way cooler than Greased Lightning.

Anyone else have this one? Might be the worst Atari game of all time.
