back when I was quite young, 3-5, I had a tyco motorbike ( I think that was the name) which you had to inflate with a bike pump style hand device to create compressed air inside the bike before you launched it, ahh the memories |

|
not any old bike! a raleigh chopper! |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
grifters were clearly superior because they had handlebar colour coded gears |
||||||||
|

Bikes require movement and movement sucks. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Kids usually thrive on movement! |

I had a Striker, the poor relation of the Grifter. I knew someone who had Grifter XL too. |

most of these toys take some decades to come to brazil. Stretch armstrong just came to brazil in the late 90s. It has corn stuff inside it, isnt it? |

I had both sets of the Horror Top Trumps, I liked, over the years, discovering what films they'd lifted some of the images. I was very frightened of the large corn cob, and Thor, who just looked weird. |

I used to have 1000 of little toy cars... I used to love creating traffic lines in the entire flat. Appart from that. I pretty much sticked to video games. |

yeh.. everyone had this.... EVERYONE! Evel Knievel Wind-up rightwing stuntman You won't get anyone like Evel Knievel again. A mid-western bike shop owner with a taste for self-publicity, Evel somehow managed to hold great swathes of the international media in his hand, as he set up ever more elaborate stunt jumps with his trusty bike. The famed Evel Knievel Stunt Cycle consisted of a semi-poseable Evel figure and bike which hooked up to a red plastic "energiser" with a chunky red handle with which you wound the bike's gyro. Then off he'd race, to jump over ramps, flaming hoops, cats etc. Then there was the similarly energized Stunt and Crash Car whose appeal was limited as the figure, safely ensconced inside, couldn't fall off and bend his limbs in the wrong direction in a Wembley Stadium style. Other merchandise included the Dragster, the trail bike, the scramble van, the Super Jet Cycle (daft sci-fi bike with plastic thrusters), the Fast Tracker (chunky moon buggy/quad bike affair), Escape from Skull Canyon (some green plastic rocks for Evel to jump over), and other still more esoteric stuff no one you knew ever owned. Sadly, the man's career peaked with the overblown prog stunt that was Snake Canyon and rotten film Viva Knievel, and his trans-Atlantic fame quickly faded. |

my brother had the evil knievel wind up thing. i can't remember him managing to get it to do anything except go in a straight line for about 5 yards, CERTAINLY nothing like the fucking advert said anyway. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
getting it to do wheelies was the ultimate! "big up to RDJ's little warped evil knievel vocal on "analogue Bubblebath 4" nyce. |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
haven't got that track, not on vinyl. i wonder why. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
It's only on the CD, I believe. I had the Evel Kenievel, I thought he looked, under the helmet, a bit like my mum. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
the ABB with "cuckoo" on it... maybe it ain't ABB4 |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah that it. but i still don't know which track is called what, there aren't and track names on the vinyl, not even the sides are named. |
