Funny that this thread got started cos The DW and i went to Hastings yesterday with little man and we passed one of these Retro type shops and in the front window was my favourite childhood toy, Action Man!!! I mean, hadn't even thought of it for years and then, a shop full!!!
And not like the modern (crappy) version with Sat Nav and Lasers etc. I mean the 'lever in the back of the head job that makes the eyes move'.
This shop was packed with gear, from the little guns and grenades to a scuba diving kit!!! Happy Days

Can i be a kid again? . . . . . . . . .

Dad was a teacher, so we had a BBC Model B with huge floppy discs. It was really exciting as it had a huge 32KB of RAM
