Damn, I remember the Toyworld in Townsville in the 80's being decked out just like the MOTU/Transformers/GI Joe/atari pics...god damn it was great being a kid in the 80s!!!!

Edit: actually it wasnt as chock a block of stuff as that, but the same on a smaller scale.
Seeing that stuff made me remember MOTU toys I had no recollection of owning until now.

I remember waking up in the dead of night before my birthday and going into my parents room to sleep with them (the night before my birthday, it turns out) only to find them awake and in the process of assembling and detailing Castle Greyskull...its a big joke in my family because of the look I had on my face seeing them playing with Castle Greyskull (mum tells me they had some of my figures there too, testing the features and what have you)...apparently it was like I had finally found out what they did at night after I was put to bed, and I knew it all along...they were playing with MY masters of the universe figures!!!!
