Baby Alive

I remember wanting a Baby Alive doll, and I’m not sure if I ever got one. But boy, do these commercial take me back. The best line: “I made a stinky.”

Crackers in my Bed!

Crackers in my Bed was a memory-style board game in the 80s, and I used to love the hell out of it. I’d forgotten, however, about the wonderful ad (and jingle) that went along with it!

Ad of the Week: Max Skate Bike, 1989

Now I don’t really remember this product, which apparently was all the rage in the late ’80s, but it looks hilarious. The Max Skate Bike appears to be some kind of magical combination between a skateboard, a scooter, a BMX bike, and roller skates. And the ad itself is pure comic gold. Keep an eye out for the Michael Jackson impersonator (how timely).

Thanks Chris!

Toys I always wanted when I was little

If you were born in the 90s, these will take you back. Even the ABC Kids bumper at the beginning of the first video gave me a childhood flashback moment.

My Buddy & Kid Sister

Lite-Brite

Little Miss Makeup (okay, to be fair, I did get this one)

Barbie Lamborghini

Maybe this Christmas….
