Back in the late ‘70s we got our Star Wars fix any way we could get it- no matter the source. So if sitting through an episode of the Donnie and Marie variety show on September 23rd, 1977 was the only way I could again see Chewbacca, the droids and stormtroopers than so be it.

Jovan the barbarian - circa 1978

Meet one of the fastest growing hobbies in the United States - circa 1982.

@WeAreTheMutants I always associate this game with the ‘83 movie, “Joysticks.”

@MrAtomicMonster 🤷

@RetroArtBlog Mean Gene Okerlund?!

The dance sensation that took all Europe by storm and is now sweeping America - circa 1982.

“Hello dere” Marty Allen, btd in 1922.

The original LEGO Space sets were the best sets to have because of this base plate and all the triangle flat pieces and the slanty computer console bricks. Made plenty of my own custom vehicles for my STAR WARS figures with these pieces.

@jonyballistic I’ve always avoided picking up this kit. Didn’t think much of it really. But seeing this paint job and how awesome it can look makes me strongly reconsider 🤔

1939 Delahaye Pacific! Throwback Thursday! 🔙 🖤 🔥

If @subaru_usa made this today I’d buy one without a second thought.

More and more folks are discovering what we have known here for over 2 decades: we are erasing our past at a rapid rate. We are the amnesia generation and we just forgot.

@jonyballistic You’re absolutely right. (found it here- murdersville.co.uk/museum/u-f-o-p…)

@RetroArtBlog We wouldn't be disappointed...

@TabiYuzo @Titanicreations The smaller version with playset is great too!

@DrPopCultureUSA Growing up, everyone I knew had at least one in their kitchen.

We referred to these as “the good glasses” in my house.

People got smarter for awhile and now everyone's a knucklehead.

@Mark5_O The only Godzilla movie I got to see in a movie theater on first release (in the U.S. that was in 1976). Possibly the first movie I was dropped off and saw alone. I was 8.

One of the best #Godzilla movies ever made....hands down!
