Things I miss:

-My Little Ponies
-She-Ra
-Bonkers---I LOVED THOSE SO MUCH!

I just noticed that they rereleased He-Man action figures and a new cartoon to go with it. Let me tell you how excited my boyfriend and his fraternity bros were!! I wish they would do the same with She-Ra!

Just thought of the ULTIMATE item.....remember those sticker books that you would buy and you would have to get the sticker packages to fill the album up? It was like 5 stickers for $.25 My mom would let me get $2 worth and we would have so much fun finding the areas where they fit. Anyway.......I want one!

Dzsaigirl! What grocery chain carries MaltOMeal?

Have you guys seen that Care Bears are back? I believe that the Hallmark stores are selling them! 'Course, we have 15 here at the house that never left...the little kids still have tea parties with them.

I think we have 2000 My Little Ponies. At least.

Woah, serious? I didn't know this existed. I did see 32's of OE in cans though once.

I miss PixieStix and FunDip candies. They had a flavored sweet/sour powder. Sometimes I still see them. Poprocks were also great!
Both of my favoriate perfumes are no longer available anywhere that I can find: Bill Blass Nude and Jones of New York.
On a positive note, my husband found JiffyPop!

I’m from Houston and Olde English is available in 16oz cans, 32oz cans and 40oz bottles. I actually collect 40oz bottles so I have been to several stores in the wards looking for new ones but from what I understand the 64 oz has been discontinued. I haven’t seen one for about four years.

I still have all my Care Bears and My Little Ponies.

Actually, there were some Care Bears that came out in the early 90s. Basically they were "envionment friendly" care bears. Like, Cheer Bear was happy because she recycled. And stuff like that. They didn't go over so well either.

I feel *really* old that they're bringing all this stuff back.

I loved the Popples!!! I miss my Popple, named Popcorn (so appropriate since I'm addicted to movie popcorn)!

I was soooo excited when I saw my very first Care Bear (the light blue one with the stars and moon on its tummy) in some accessories store (maybe Claire's)...I was going to get him but his eyes were closed and I was hoping that since it's their 20th anniversary, another place would be selling them...I'll have to check out Hallmark...are there any other places selling them in case they don't have the ones I want?

Does anyone remember the Wuzzles game? The Wuzzles were these cute animals...kinda forget exactly what they look like, one looked like a lion i think...but I loved that game, unfortunately I think my parents threw it out or it's lost somewhere in our basement.

Juniorgrrl, go to eBay and type in the names of the Care Bears you want! That's how we completed our collection.

Doesn't Bedtime Bear always have closed eyes?

My friend used to pick me up a 3 liter bottle of that stuff when she used to come back from trips to Florida.

I miss these too! My great grandma used to buy them for me when I went over to her house!

Flowby -- that vacuum attachment that cuts hair. I'd never use one but I do miss the infomercials for it.

AchtungBaby80 · #12 10-07-2002, 09:52 AM

Where'd my Smurf cereal go? I loved that stuff!

And also, I got hooked on Wotsits when I went home with my boyfriend a while back, and when I came back to the States I discovered, to my utmost horror, that we don't have them over here! Aaaarrrgghh! But luckily, he's going home for Christmas, so I'm going to request some more...hopefully that'll hold me over 'til the next time I go back.

DeltaSigStan · #13 10-07-2002, 09:57 AM

Although I'd never use either, I miss those ads for the pocket fisherman and the can of paint you were supposed to spray on your head and brush as hair.

ZTAMiami · #14 10-07-2002, 10:03 AM

Beside the Smurfs, Care Bears, Strawberry Shortcake, etc. I also miss Fraggle Rock and the Monchichis

I still see fun dip and pop rocks all the time and also Astro pops only they took out the wax (thank goodness)
