@MLB The clock flashing at 12:00 is a nice touch.

Look here, y'all!  It’s the return of ... This Week in Baseball ⚾️

@RetroNewsNow What about Flesh and Indian Red ?

🖍️In 1990, for the first time since 1972, Crayola introduced eight new colors and for the first time since Crayola crayons were created in 1908, retired eight others (blue gray, green blue, violet blue, orange red, orange yellow, lemon yellow, maize and raw umber)

@RetroNewsNow But wait! There’s more! Act now and get the shakeweight free! ( just pay $9.99 processing and handling fee)

Thighmaster (1991)

Evan Williams announced the release of five highly limited Evan Williams Single Barrel Bourbon Nation Collegiate Edition bottles celebrating The University of Alabama, University of Florida, Syracuse University, TCU, and the University of South Carolina.

@PixelCNinja The original “Tapper” also had the “when you say Bud..” jingle for the challenge and dance parts of the game. This was also changed for Root Beer Tapper. …and I still have not made it past the punker bar to the Aliens.

Tapper was originally "Budweiser Tapper," featuring the beer's logo and actual mugs. When arcades worried about marketing alcohol to kids, Sega released "Root Beer Tapper" in 1984, swapping the logo and filling the mugs with soda!

@SerpentorsLairX Assuming this was ~1978, that is $665 today. 👀

@Charlie81062522 @80s_Kidz …and then you received 10x. And still complained about it.

@80s_Kidz Fantastic toys. I tried buying the US soldiers but there was a two year wait.

Hours of fun👌🏻

@corememunlocked Loved this game. I think I still have a tank or two left. But that’s it. It was a rough campaign…

@drpenking Americans getting to the 2:30 mark

How football is made

@Catholic_bro I’m good on crosses. …now I would like to find a video on how to make the “steeple”

You’re gonna be looking for this in the AM

@corememunlocked @toys_retro Toys, games and yo-yo’s

@Rainmaker1973 If a Cracker Jack tattoo counts, then I am at 100.

60 points to me, and I think no one will get to 100 points. How many did you get?

When I got the trak ball, I have to say that I was a little disappointed in how it somehow made missile command harder and less responsive. However, when I realized that astrosmash could also use the paddle controller, it was great. The best and most responsive controller ever!

What other games use the Atari Trak-Ball ?

Definitely not paid. ( i wish) Just a fan. The mapping sensors were impressive so I was a little surprised about the fall, which was significant on hardwood stairs, but it was fine afterwards. It usually runs at night when the lights are mostly off, so maybe it got confused. Since then, I made the stairwell a “no go zone”. Also, with multiple dogs, we are kindof demanding of our vacuums. I was wondering if it had already “given up”. lol.

@BAMA_Hound So it doesnt have a cliff sensor or is the cliff sensor trash? I had a vacumn before but I can’t remember the brand ..maybe eufy? Idk but that feature is a must for me Also thanks, assuming you aren’t a paid sponsor 😂

I need a real life opinion on the narwal robot vacuum and mop combo Still probably gonna buy it but I just want to hear from somebody lmao I don’t be trusting reviews these days …everybody’s paid off

@RetroNewsNow As a kid, I was interested in the color coded skillets on the package. Did you get one with it ?

🍴In 1971, General Mills introduced Hamburger Helper

@CatWorkers Hey… that’s a Narwal. I’m surprised that the cat doesn’t mess with the tracking.

Working the night shift.

@DudespostingWs I’m looking for part 2 where he puts his toddler in there. …hopefully with a crash helmet and a fire suit.

This man somehow fit an engine in a little tikes cozy coupe. This man is a genius

@HistoricHub @grok is this true?
