was captain power the one where you got a toy to shoot at the screen during the show. the enemy planes would have flashing target and you had to hit the target. but basically the shit didnt work? is that that, or something else?

here are some :

sega genesis with the MGH! multi game hunter, copied games onto 3.5" floppies.

Apple iigs

Bullshit. The 100 was a monster. Especially if you put a 50 tank in place of the pressure ball. I cry when I think of what nerf has done to the super soaker name

I had like a 5000 that had a backpack. Fucker was like a water hose. Kids quit playing water wars with me. The 50 is definitely the classic cause it was the first true badass water gun.

Same here. It was a POS but this one was even worse, we ended up taking it back after Christmas.

I had one that worked great for a long time. Then I started hitting jumps with it like they do in the commercials and the tracks started falling off. Of course the Battery Door got the Duct Tape treatment as well. Then the Scorcher came out and people started arguing over which was faster

I had this one. It worked AWESOME. It would shoot the same distance no matter how many times it was pumped. It had one problem though...It came with a big warning on it that you absolutely could not leave pressure in it without firing it. I brought it to the beach one day and forgot I had left pressure in it. A huge BANG came out of the inside of it and it never worked again...

I didn't, mine are all in storage. I have all my micro machines/TMNT action figures/Some GI Joes (original rubber band first series) that survived my murdering of them/Construx/first series transformers/entire exosquad first run mechs/hot wheels/misc stuff. I am not real sure what all I have. I have a ton of toys that I kept. Hope we have a boy, if not I will probably just start ebaying the shit when I get older.

A lot of that shit you'll find to be worthless... However, I made a fucking killing on micro machines like 6-7 years ago... Probably 20 cars, a few of the little town pieces, and the battleship.. I made almost $200. Crazy.

Then again, my sisters handheld pac man game, circa 1983, in perfect condition wouldn't bring $10 w/ free shipping.
