this was a house in the shape of a shoe, it had a family of bears living in it. It wasn't Sylvanian Families.
Hey all, This one's been bugging me, on and off, for a few years now. Back in the mid-late 70's, I had a Horror themed money box: It was a large, black cube, with a hinged lid, and a coin 'rest' on the top (it was a very glossy, black plastic). You'd place your coin in the 'rest',...
Hi Guys been trying to track the name of a 1980s cartoon for ages but am having no luck. I know that the cartoon was merchandised because I had a toy from it. I'm not too sure what the toy was called but it was like a wind up picture/music reel. It had like a flat monitor with a button to wind...

When I was about 7 or 8 my dad bought me this little doll and I started to collect her "world". She was a cute doll and I still have her now. I've realised that she is now "vintage" (which is scary) and this has prompted me to start collecting again. I'd like to chat with any other...

The idea was that...
Hi everyone. I must say that i am becoming hooked on this site. My wife has just asked if anyone remembers a board game called 'Miss World. ???:confused:
An odd Matchbox line from 1991-1992, approximately, which rose and then vanished with little trace. I'd known it existed but had never seen or got my hands on a set until very recently, when I acquired one battered and one almost mint set (there were three of different sizes) ...
I remember this popular toy but can't think what it was called. It was a plastic tube on a base. What you did was fill it with water and pieces of plastic (underwater treasure), which fell to the bottom. When you squeezed the tube, the diving bell would go to the bottom of the tube and a...
