OMG Herself The Elf!
MAD BALLS
SEA WEES
(I'm pretty sure these came with sponges and their tails would change color with cold water)
MY PET MONSTER
(Proof that you could pretty much slap some hot-pink on anything and kids would want it in the 80's)
PILLOW PEOPLE
(I don't remember this one - seems a bit violent to me - I'm pretty sure mine involved some sort of zebra print)
WUZZLES
(These were a poor-man's Care Bear but I definitely had one ... what does that say about me?)
PUR-TENDERS
(What's with the obession over animals with an identity crisis?)
POOCHIE
POGO-BALL
HERSELF THE ELF!
(This one is mostly for my sister's sake - does anyone else remember her?)
POCKET ROCKERS
(Who needs an I-Pod when you have one of these??)
I could go on and on - its probably gotten a bit obnoxious already. Anyone remember more?

Ooh, Ooh, me...I have one! How about the Shirt Tails? Can't remember their names though.
Um ... ofcourse shirt-tales! I remember Bogey (the ape), and Pam (the panda).
These were more of my cousin's era--they all had those sea wee's and pillow people. Cracked me up to see them again. I remember them making shrinky dinks and my Grandpa "helping" them. They would kind of shrivel up before they flattened out--but he didn't know that part. When they started to wrinkle up, he grabbed them out of the oven and started pounding on them with a hammer--breaking them into bits!! All the little kids were crying! It was great.
I don't remember half of those toys. Maybe I was more deprived than I realized.
Yes! Shrinky Dinks! Loved them too - I think they still make those actually. If not they should.
@ Carrie - you were probably just deprived of girlie toys b/c you grew up with brothers.
Thanks for the blog help Bee!
