34 comments:

  1. I live in holland and they invent shit like that from the supermarkets like on an almost daily basis trying to get the kids to like em.

    and of course collect them all.

    and i dont even wanna get started about all the orange shit they invent every time a big games championship is coming.

  3. Funny...for a moment I mistook him for Bruce, the Hawaiian god of mullets.

    Also, what's that Canadian kid doing in Hawaii? Where are his parents?

  10. You can always tell who the protagonist in "boys' cartoons" because they are drawn in the most homoerotic way.

    A quasi related question: can we blame "Thundercats" for Furries?

  11. I swear there wasn't a single toy in the 1980s that didn't have its own awful cartoon. Besides the Rubik's Cube cartoon mentioned above there were:
    Madballs
    My Pet Monster
    Teddy Ruxpin
    ...and on and on.
