RE: There Was a Hugely Popular Ghostbusters Toothpaste Based on Slimer in the 80s. What the Hell Was Wrong With Kids?

in #nostalgia7 years ago (edited)

This is awesome, you brought back so many childhood memories and made me laugh. To be honest though, the idea of putting the megazord somewhere and forgetting about it, amongst other toys from that era, could have turned out to be sound financial advice. How many people tragically destroyed or tossed out toys and games now worth 2x-200x the orignal value, and then there are people paying thousands to buy back the toys they tossed out or never had as a child? Some of those dudes even have to sell their collections at a huge loss once their wives threaten to leave.

I was born in 86 and I was a huge fan of everything mentioned here as a kid.. besides this toothpaste I don't remember it, I did love the real ghostbusters and have a proton pack and drink ecto-cooler though. I was even a bigger fan of all the great toys and product tie-ins, my true love was "Muppet Baby Yogurt", it was delicious in a very artificial way and it seems like it existed for years after the show ended.

heres my vhs copies of the turtles coming out of their shells tour as well as the making of said tour, I think the name would have a weird implication in today's world. Sadly I sold my Vanilla Ice Ninja Rap tape.
