wcw43921 Posted September 5 Report Share Posted September 5 Back in the day, it was very unlikely that your parents would take you to see any of the James Bond movies. (I know my dad wouldn't take us to a James Bond double feature at the local drive-in.) But you could still have the toys. My brother had the James Bond Attache Case-- Old Man and DentArthurDent 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ternaugh Posted September 5 Report Share Posted September 5 Dad was a fan, his first date with Mom was to see Goldfinger. I remember seeing Moonraker in the theater, and I think we went to see The Spy Who Loved Me back in '77. Then again, I wasn't allowed a GI Joe figure as a young kid, but I did have the figure of Cornelius from Planet of the Apes ("He's a scientist, you know"-Mom) wcw43921 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ternaugh Posted September 14 Report Share Posted September 14 Bought myself a new toy, mainly because I wanted something that plays music with an actual headphone jack. I think the whole player is actually smaller than the cassette tape it's showing on its screen (it shows different grades of tape based upon the bitrate/encoding of the file, with HF Type I for MP3, though I usually turn it off to save battery life). It's Android, so I can also stream from a variety of sources, including my Plex server. DentArthurDent and wcw43921 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wcw43921 Posted September 24 Report Share Posted September 24 I had no idea there were WKRP toys. You would think MEGO-sized action figures were a possibility, but I imagine boys would have done some completely inappropriate things with the Jennifer Marlowe doll.

death tribble Posted Thursday at 11:17 AM Report Share Posted Thursday at 11:17 AM I will not see my colleagues in Reading until November and it all depends on them wanting to play those games. It took several years for them to select Wingspan and Mansions of Madness is still waiting a run out. I jumped on getting Viticulture after having to wait nearly a year to get Castles of the Mad King Ludwig. It was out of stock/print. The only game I have got that has not gone down that well is Villainous. Wingspan went down well but it has a simple play guide for start up and this was invaluable. I would advise people to use that first to get you used to the game. DentArthurDent, Cancer and Old Man 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a copy of Wingspan, but I've never played it. Opened it and read the rules, but haven't had opportunity to play it. Old Man 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DentArthurDent Posted Friday at 07:10 PM Report Share Posted Friday at 07:10 PM Viticulture is great! Essential Edition is even better. I love Wingspan. I like engine builders. But to be honest, my favorite part of the game is just reading the cards. An amateur birder’s dream come true. Old Man 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
