Having failed miserably to stay awake whilst Last Action Hero was on TV I thought I'd check out old TV ads for the toys. Judging by the 4 on You Tube they must have been quite popular back in 1993. I wonder if they're collectable 25 years later?
I didn't even know these toys existed!In hindsight,1993 was at a time in my life where toys and collectables were not a big part of everyday life.It was a transitional time where I was developing a "career" as a tradesman and living on my own.I don't know how I managed rent,a vehicle,utilities, clothes and food on apprentice's pay.But, the entire time,my childhood toys were in storage,waiting to be displayed once again!
Yeah, it was complicated growing up eh Bri! You did well getting all your childhood in strorage. Hardly anything of mine survived past my childhood and I have just a few things left now. It must have been a big day when you went to get all your stuff out of storage!
Ha! I saw Last Action Hero first-run at the Drive-In! Great fun! When I read all the reviews about it, I ran to see it - and I was not disappointed! Almost as bad as Leonard Part 6!
