I wish you have an international type of this...

I WOULD LOVE TO GET INTERNATIONAL ! <3 Ã¼

Cyndimom 04/27/2010 #

I just created an international one so have some fun! ;)

If we can think of other "80s" stuff, can we send that too? I'd like some not-so-girly stuff - A-Team, Transformers, MacGyver, He-man/She-ra, The Jackson 5, etc. What do you think? I guess it could fall into the "surpise" option?

I (heart) She-Ra

I loved the not so girly stuff too-He-man and Transformers were my favorites I just didn't know how many other people would love them too-I will add them to the list and hopefully partners will check profiles and comments before sending.

Cyndimom 04/28/2010 #

I will add Transformers, He-man, She-ra, and A team-the others can fall under a profile surprise-I thought Jackson 5 started in the 70's-I just remember Michael in the 80's-I'll add him for the 80's because of Thriller :)

you're right about the Jackson 5... doh. I guess I associate it with my childhood....I did have a bunch of Michael Jackson folders in my Trapper Keeper, though!

Cyndimom 04/29/2010 #

Trapper Keepers...I miss those. Does anyone remember the Peachee folders?

Hey what about the iron t-shirts and big hair scrunchies. Oh my fave was always the temp tattoos. Love those out of the cracker jacks.

nermalski 05/12/2010 #

Who knew it was so hard to find some of the things I thought I could. I have all my stuff now and packaging it up tomorrow.

Cyndimom 05/13/2010 #

I know, I always would see 80's stuff with my kids and chuckle...then when I went to get stuff it was hard to find it. Go figure. I definitely should have added the hair scrunchies and cracker jacks so we could get the prizes out :) Those things could fall under 80's surprise!

mizvicky 05/14/2010 #
