Pee-Wee Herman Action Figure


Pee-Wee Herman Action Figure
circa 1988
purchased for $3

Still one of my favorite characters of the 80's. I have three of the "Talking Pee-Wee" dolls, but I never had any of the little action figures. I found this one still in the original package at an indoor flea market. Great show, great movie, great action figure.

Bart Simpson Burger King Toy


Bart Simpson Burger King Toy
circa 1993
purchased for $.25

No kid in the 90's didn't watch the Simpsons... as long as their parents let them! I was fully immersed in Simpson Mania. When I was on a family vacation in Niagara Falls, I convinced my parents to buy me a pair of Jams (you know..longer than shorts, shorter than pants), that said, "I'm Bart Simpson, who the hell are you?" I couldn't believe I was going to be wearing a piece of clothing with the word "hell" on it! I still love the Simpsons...well, up until season 9. After that, the show went to hell.

"Take your stinking paws off me, you damned dirty ape!" Classic film, classic cup! I found this gem at an antique mall in Nebraska.
