Awesome stuff from my childhood poll

Oh, the happy days of my life 

Ninja Turtles is one of the best cartoons of all time.

Somebody remember Astroboy? or G-Force?

When I first saw it, it was the 2nd or 3rd rerun already (it is a German cult classic), but I was fascinated by it.

As a toy collector, I happen to have a german wood toy. Its a small wood donkey that comes with a lot of colour sticks. The donkey has a little red circle in the back, and the game consists in placing the sticks one over the other, forming a tower. I lost the box, but both the figure and the sticks are stored in perfect conditions. What I would give to be able to travel around the world to search for other toys such as the ones you describe.

Here's a picture of my trombone player cat, a priceless item of my collection, wich I found in a flea market:

Like with rock music, I feel that the golden age of TV was from the 60s through the early to mid-70s. I wasn't born until the 70s...

This should bring back memories for some of you: Land of the Lost (CLICK)
Okay, so it's cheesy, but it was standard Saturday morning fare for me.

When I was a kid in the 70's, I was biggest on Doctor Who (Pertwee) in reruns mostly, though Tom Baker was great too, reruns of The Prisoner, Star Trek, and The Avengers, and cartoons like Return to the Planet of the Apes (CLICK)

From that list, Ninja Turtles, definately.

For me though, little beats Sega Megadrive, The Animals of Farthing Wood and Count Duckula for nostalgia.

...so where's THUNDERBIRDS???? FIREBALL  XL5???? STINGRAY???

Not at all, I remember those charming animated things, though they were ancient by the 70s.
