Social WR Lounge V221: Brady is an overrated can

[StoneColdSteveAustin]

No I was very protective of my Joe's and really only liked to play with them in doors

I crested mad bases jungles and assorted battled fields all across the house.

I've always been kinda obsessive and a lost weapon was a major ordeal

Losing a weapon is traumatic. Kids took great pride in their toys years ago

 

[Social Distance Warrior]

I had the tiger force version of that green boat. That was my going up river for a secret attack vehicle

hahahah I got those small boats and a thrift shop.

completely forgot about those

 

[Deleted member 405583]

This was one of my favorite ships.

Rolling Thunder

and any toy that you could bring in the bath tub was also awesome.

do kids still put their toys in the bath tub or was that an 80s thing?

I had that speed boat but I remember it being a darker and deeper red. Dropping depth charges was my shit

 

[Gutter Chris]

and this motherfucker...Serpentor.

When I play Joe's he's still the boss bad guy

 

[Social Distance Warrior]

Had to raise the stakes for the movie


I'm out of likes by the way or I'd be spamming them

same...I blew my wad.

I owe you and @StoneColdSteveAustin some

 

[Deleted member 405583]

those are great memories. Being in the tub with your toys and getting yelled at “it’s time to come out!”

Nah. I just wait until I hear "daddddddyyyy the water is cooooooooolllldddd"

 

[StoneColdSteveAustin]

yea, the first half of the film they were getting their asses kicked.

Road Block gets blinded

Duke goes into a coma.

Gung Ho, and Alpine get seriously injured.

Yeah all the main guys were almost killed. I couldn’t believe it.

 

[Social Distance Warrior]

they didn't have this in Korea or the Aircraft carrier.

I would have killed for one of these

 

[Gutter Chris]

Be prepared to shell out Lotta money if you want that one in complete condition

Road pig was my go to goon. And cobras I liked always defected

 

[StoneColdSteveAustin]

Nah. I just wait until I hear "daddddddyyyy the water is cooooooooolllldddd"

And they’re all pruned up with their fingers and toes.

You know, you are making me reminisce hard over here lol.

 

[Social Distance Warrior]

the one upside is, they introduced these guys




Look, Keith Jardine is in thee middle.

 

[StoneColdSteveAustin]

I used to make mixed teams and take my favorite thunder cats and favorite ninja Turtles and favorite Gi Joes and maybe a transformer or two would be on a team and then the bad guys would all be mixed too.


The fun was setting up tour base or battlefield. Once you got everything set up the battle was never as fun as setting everything up. That’s where the creativity came into play.

 

[Social Distance Warrior]

My friend had this really cool one...

so jealous.

 

[StoneColdSteveAustin]

You know, you are making me reminisce hard over here lol.

Those are amazing memories that’s why. Being a kid was incredible.

 

[Jack V Savage]

@Jack V Savage lol how does this happen?!

I know of a case where it was something like "50 Pt. Head." There are a lot of possibilities, but generally when you're poring over stuff looking for small mistakes, you are more susceptible to missing stuff that is incredibly obvious to people who just pick up the paper. There should be someone who looks over an early copy for obvious stuff like that and then gives the OK to let the printing go, but even that person is there late at night and in a rush to get home (or to a bar) and doesn't find anything 95% of the time. The challenge is to keep System 2 engaged.

I've been hunting for a pair of the tiger Fly version for a while now that are actually in playwithable shape

Something comes up every time I find them and cock blocks me.

how fucking stupid of me NOT to keep these toys in mint condition....and rather, keeping some stupid ass football/ baseball cards in mint conditoin

 

[Social Distance Warrior]

not to switch gears on you boys...and you may be too young for this...

but these were also in my collection

Some did. I know a buncha rich kids that trashed toys I woulda killed for. Like the space station and air craft carrier.

I member going air conditioning as a kid since our house didn't have any on real hot nights and if you kept it together there was a good chance of getting a vehicle or a handful of Joe's.
