Talk about memory lane! Used to love that comic, got it as often as possible. Had a few of the annuals too.

I'd love to get my hands on the flexi-disc or an mp3
of the 2 songs that came with Oink Issue 1!!!

I remember a flexi disc with 2 songs from Uncle Pig.
Poop Poop tinkle tinkle parp parp oink, a tiddly tiddly widdly
plop I think the chorus went.

There were transfer sets too.

Oink was one of the comics that started using coated paper
which had a sheen to it, almost high quality when compared to other comics, and had almost Hi-Def! colour.

Could not belive it when got the first issue, when it came free with Wizzer and Chips or Buster.
I think I bought Buster in the End.

(I was never a comic nerd, but I hated Beno, Hated Dandy, Loved Wizzer and Chips and Buster, 2000AD I bought
for the artwork alone, Eagle never had any interest, WildCat I loved.)

Cool thread, haven't had that memory in a long long time

Excellent comic - definitely put me in the right frame of mind for buying Viz later on! Shared a massive collection of them with my brother. Not sure where they are now though . I'm sure the somewhat scratched flexi disk is still mixed in with the old record collection!

Used to love Burp, Tom Thug and Rubbish Man!
