  • Magic Stick..... on invisible line

    Hi Guys,

    When I was a kid I had a Magic Stick. It was a yellow plastic stick with a red plastic ball at each end. It was attached to a piece of clear fishing line type stuff. It's got to be my favourite toy of the 70's. I remember the day I bought it. Does anyone have a pic of one or in fact even remember them?

          My best friend had a magic stick. I desperately wanted one. Thought it was the best thing ever, though I think I was influenced by a cool advert for it that I vaguely remember. Looking back it was a bit rubbish really.

            People have already covered the stick, but the "invisible thread" toy I most remember were "Squirmles"... nostalgic and still very much around. Infestng Youtube, too.




            Another take that has been around for a while is the "mystery UFO"

            Hawkins is a good source for retro toys games an puzzles.
