You can buy the Big yellow teapot in Toys R Us..

My Gran trawled carboot sales looking for one for my DD and then posted it to me right at the same time i had found it, so we now have 2.

The Big Red fun bus is also available in TRU.

As for Jem and the holograms I never has the doll but I still have the video and sometimes find myself singing the songs from it ( how sad!)

I liked Finders Keepers too..

There is one i've seen recently that is very similar but the name is now Tiny Secrets, think it is in Argos.

I always wanted Get in Shape Girl but never got it.

A favourite of mine was Gloworm..

And, what were those things called which you help up to your eyes and you played a game through it, things like space invaders. They came in red and blue and the buttons were on the top?

my faves ever would have to be my Skeletor (it was teh christams that parents were fighting over HeMan and my dad couldnt find one anywhere so i got him instead!), Big Yellow Tea Pot, Keepsake (a swan plastic you opened its back with a key to put your treasures inside) and a Guard Dog, (you set it down and when you picket it up it barked so you were supposed to put iot on top of your secret stuff hehe!)
