I'd the same issues with a lego police station.

I was listening to fix it Friday on today fm last week and they mentioned these. I couldn't picture them at all until I seen your pic. These can still be got online. From what they said on the radio, the original company no longer makes them. They pulled the whole product range a few years back due to faulty bricks that caused a choking hazard in children.
There were savage
I hate the sight of them. They were used at work one time as part of a team building/productivity enhancing yoke. People fell out that day didn't speak for years. :P0 -
I used to collecy old WWF and WCW action figures when I was a kid. I created my own fantasy wrestling federation. I also used He Man figures and cheap pound shop wrestlers and I gave them my own names and gimmicks. I had my own championships, feuds and storylines. Stinkor here from He Man was my World Champion umpteen times over and had great feuds with Hulk Hogan, Ric Flair and Macho Man Randy Savage :pac:

I did but without the cage though. I got a ring for Xmas in 1991 along with The Bushwhackers action figures and and Andre the Giant figure
Before I got my ring a handyman neighbour of mine built me one with a biscuit tin for the base, a piece of carpet for the mat and 4 small brass pipes for the ringposts and elastic twine for the ropes. I made the turnbuckles myself with paper and sellotape. I have a couple of old pics of it which I'll upload soon :pac:0 -

Main ones I remember having were hulk Hogan, ultimate warrior, big boss man, Ted dibiasi and roddy piper (the dog beat most of them in a fight )
I always wanted the ring with the spring to launch people off the top rope. Mine didn't come with it 0 -

Heh, me too. Although I used to use He-man figures and pretend the were WWF wrestlers. I'd try to match up a He-man guy with a WWF guy so that there was some sort of similarity between them. So, for instance this guy 'Tung Lashor' was my 'Brutus The Barber.....
...as...
They weren't all so perfectly matched however. For instance, for some reason I had Meckanek as "Hulk Hogan". Yeah even now I don't know how I made that connection, but there you go.0 -

Yeah, some well meaning aunt would get you one for your birthday. You'd still feel ripped off.0 -
anyone remember those slimey / sticky type yo-yo thingies that invaded classrooms in the early 90s?
there were single colour and would have a ring part to go around your finger - they you could throw the main part and see if stick on a window / wall.
nice n squishy to touch. Mad yokes!
found a pic of them here:

Anybody remember this one? "Bandit Chase" - I remember it being a Christmas present bought in Dun Laoghaire (?). I must have been about 13 at the time and really got some fun out of it. One player controlled the movement of the truck laden with stolen barrels while the other player controlled the movement of the police car. When I say controlled the movement I mean they controlled the 'points' in the track as the vehicles were not radio controlled. The objective of the game was for the police car to ram the back of the truck and cause it to shed its load. Sadly the game was left behind in one of my many moves over the years.
