Action Figures and Cartoon: I want to find an action figure that had a cartoon in the 80's or early 90's. They were men that had backpacks and/or wrist mount equipment that shot out ribbons and string that they would fly across. The ones with backpacks would have the ribbon come out of the back pack. They flew over lava in the cartoon and always trying to fight the villians. They also had a verticle space ship that seemed to cling to rock face. This was their mother ship. Any ideas.; Reply
Activity Game: Do you know of a game that involved stacking shaped barrels befor the time was up? You used a vertical ball drop. The little ball went down a maze in a dropping action as you tried to stack up the shaped barrels before the ball ran into them? At the end you closed a small gate to stop the little ball. I remember this from probably the late 1970's.; Reply
Activity/Craft Kit: Approximately 1972-1977, my sister and I had a craft kit made up of small plastic discs, each with four holes in it. Little plastic clips were included to hook the discs together and make things like a purse or a poncho. We made a poncho. I think the discs were mostly yellow and orange, maybe white or red too. What was the kit called, and can I still find one somewhere?; Reply
Aircraft Carrier - 1970s: In the mid 70s, I received a toy aircraft carrier for christmas. It was about 3 feet long. It came with two foam F4U Corsairs. You could hook the planes on to the catapult, then using a handle on the deck, taxi and launch the airplane into the air. It flew pretty well; about 30-40 feet. What was this toy called and who made it?; Reply
AIRCRAFT CARRIER-FOAM RUBBER LAUNCHABLE PLANES (F4U-CORSAIRS): In the mid 1970's, I had a large aircraft carrier (3ft. long). You were able to launch the planes from two different locations (straight ahead & on an angle) just as a real carrier launches it's planes. The planes launched via a large rubber band. Each launch area had a seperate handle to pull back, which relesed the planes. Any help on the toy manufacturer, the name of the carrier or if there are any out there for purchase would be greatly appreciated. Thank you, KA-Michigan.; Reply
Airplane - Rubber Band Launched Semisoft Foam: Mattel made a toy plane launcer in the late 70's. Through extensive web research I found the patent (US patent number 4060930). Unfortunatly I can't remember what name this was marketed under. I remember there were all sorts of planes; American, Soviet, etc. madefrom a semisoft foam with hard plastic undercarrige which was the hook for the launcher and wheels for the plane. At one point in addition to the single and double hand held launchers they also had an aircraft carrier type launcher. Scoured ebay with no success but figured a product name might help target my search. Letters to Mattel have had no response.; Reply
Alien Action Figure(s): Around 1970 my brother and I had a couple alien action figures, which I've been trying to track down. Mine was about 4" tall, might have been bendy, and was a martian. My brothers was a little taller (maybe 5 1/2"), and was purple (I think) and had a kind of octopus head on a biped body. There may have been other alien figures in the set. Any idea what these were, who manufactured them? I've been wondering about it for the last 30yrs or so, as I lost mine in the snow in the early 70s.; Reply

arm-powered ride on toy: About 1978 or 1979, I received a toy that I want to share with my son, but can't recall the name of it. It was a red disc that you sat on just off the floor. It had 2 large black wheels that sat on either side of the rider. (You actually sat between the wheels) They were powered by turning their handles with your hands. You could turn them together and go straight, or just one to go in a perfect circle. Can you help me. I've looked everywhere. Thanks so much for your time and expertise. - Elizabeth; Reply

Battery Moving Exploding War Ship & submarine with 4 spring loaded torpedo: During late 60's or sometime in 70's - Battleship was battery powered and had a spring like a mouse trap on it and several pieces ontop of it that when you hit the release on the ship side; they spring let go and all the pieces flew in the air.

Car - Race Track: Back in the mid 70's i got a racing car christmas present. It was an oval track with banked corners. There was a lap counter which operated by an anntenae which you could place on the car in 1 of 4 places. The car was rechargable by charging station. The charging station had i believe 4 d cell batteries. You pushed the top of what looked like a mini fuel pump and plugged into the car with a small black wire sorta looked like a small rca jack. The cars would just race around the track (not a slot track) and when it got to the lap counter it narrowed to one lane so the antenna would hit the lap counter.

Doll-Rosie/Rosie?: Hello. I have a doll, named "Rosie/Rosey." The name, was written by the manufacturer on her collar. It has now faded, so I do not know the correct spelling.

The face, arms and legs are comprised of a thick nylon (I believe) material. Is there any hope in finding the correct name, make, and manufacturer? Thank You.; Reply

gyro top toy: Looking for a toy from early to mid 80's...(?)I believe there were two in the box...one larger, they were primary red and blue with a yellow ripcord. You fed the cord into the gear, pulled and let the top go; I think the point was to balance one top on the other; there may have been three, of decreasing size. There was no deck for the tops, these were not beyblades. You just set the base down, and tried to rip, spin and stack the tops. THese were not small toys; they were of considerable size. I don't remember the mechanism by which the tops launched, but you fed and pulled cord, and tops launched. The spinning points were metal, and somewhat large in diameter. The box was relatively large; similar to a paper quart of milk, but with a flat folding flap top. The actual tops were like two concentric circles with gear teeth sandwiched between, where you fed the rip cord...not like a traditional top. HELP! You are much appreciated! Thank you, Kathryn; Reply

Rubber Duck Squeak Toy from the early 1970's: I am looking for a white/off white rubber ducky squeak toy from the early 1970's. My mother bought it for me in early to mid 1972 in Buffalo, NY. It has a one piece base instead of two separate feet, with a squeak vent that is round with a square grid. The beak is not rounded, but a pointed shape, sort of like a pentagon, with the last side being the face of the duck. The beak is a light orange. There are molded/sculpted wings that lead into a pert tail. The duck has large blue doe-type eyes. It has a very round head tilted slightly to the side and a short neck and roundish body (kind of a compact item, maybe 6" tall). I think it could perhaps be manufactured by Rempel but this is a guess. Does anyone have info about a reference manual for vintage squeak toys, so I at least know exactly what I am looking for?; Reply

Train Set: Back in the mid to late 70s, my dad bought a train set for me. It was on a styrofoam base that measured maybe 42" by 42". It has painted mountainish landscaping. It was a simple overlapping circle layout with a tunnel and a bridge. The center was open with a small town of maybe three buildings in it. I beleive it was HO Scale. Might be made by Life-Like, may have been purchased at Sears, JCPenney or Montgomery Ward. I have been searching the internet and have'nt had any luck finding out more information about this set. Can you help? Thanks,Mike.; Reply

VEHICLE - TOY TRAIN: I am looking for a toy from my childhood, in the 90s. It was part of a series of similarly-themed toys: the hook with these was that they were medium-sized (about 6 or 7 inches long) vehicles which unfolded to reveal a small 3-D play area with a miniature version of the vehicle. I can recall one of the ones in the series was a moon rover, but the one I'm interested in was a train, I believe the only one in the series. I believe also that each came with a comic depicting an adventure each vehicle went on in the environment depicted inside the vehicle. I can recall that the train went through a sort of alien landscape. Please help!; Reply

Whirley Bird Flying Helicopter/ship: In the mid 70's i received a toy and I believe it was called a Whirley Bird.

You controlled the helicopter and it could fly forwards and backwards. It was attached to the ship. This was one of my absolute favorite toys and over the years it was destroyed. I feel pretty confident that that toy is no longer in production...what kid wants something so antiquated. But if anyone knows where I amy find this please let me know. I would love to aquire one for my collection. Thank you and have a great day.; Reply
