Super soaker commercials were great. My parents would never buy me the super soaker with a backpack attached.

The Nerf bow and arrow was incredible. Just stick a tack to the end for realistic arrow action.

I really wanted one of these fricking air conditioners from Sears.

Yep, remember that commercial well. I wonder how many of those particular ACs are still kicking out there?

I wanted a Tyco Typhoon hovercraft so badly as a kid, but my parents refused for some reason. I didn’t live near water, so I’m not sure what I was expecting. Still sort of want.

I remember one for the NES Legend of Zelda that made it look pretty epic, and it did not disappoint

Had both of these. The talkboy was legit, I remember playing with that a bunch.

Moonshoes were trash but I'll be damned if the commercial didn't make you think you could dunk

Stompers

Added extra tires to them using the foamy wheels and stick pins.

I had one. I guess it was pretty cool but I dont think it was intended to just be used in the street like I used it.

Moon Shoes: maybe I was too fat to wear these because I just sank to the ground and got no bounce.

Socker Boppers: they removed maybe 8% of the punching power and resulted in many bloody noses and real fights.

Skip it: a product I never mastered.

Damn, 90s toy jingles used to be awesome!

GI Joe Aircraft Carrier USS Flagg.

There is no close second. This was the absolute gold standard of toys.
