Even the failed toys of the 80s were pretty cool and creative. I'm glad I grew up back then, because we had awesome toys and cartoons.

10:08 Convertors were what you found in the smaller local grocery store's toy aisle. It was the go-to transforming toy you took when your parents didn't want to pay for Transformers.

Wow! Such a time capsule, within this video!! I was born in '79, so I was an '80s kid, and can actually remember almost all of these toys from when I was a kid. Brings back so many great memories, and fun times too!! Those were the days, and I'd give anything to go back to better, and happier, times.

I had a Spectra doll in the 80s. Loved it.

Oh my, I remember seeing some of these and being thankful my kids were more into Popples, Pound Puppies and Teddy Ruxpin. Until the late '80's. Then most of these were gone. Long live Matchbox cars and My Little Pony.

Oh my gosh, I’m cracking up!! The E. T. finger toy description is hilarious!!!

Most parents were outraged by anything skateboarder related during that decade. I spent my teenage years during the eighties and had fun. A younger friend of mine recently said the eighties was the decade of bad taste which made me laugh out loud because I had never thought of it that way but I saw his point and found a lot of truth in it.

Best decade for kids!! Thanks for bringing back some memories!!

I was definitely a Garbage Pail Kids Collector! I absolutely loved that idea, I wonder if the people that created this line had any other ideas? I bet they did, the funny thing was I also collected Cabbage Patch Dolls at the same time and there faces were so similar lol. Makes me think the cards were making fun of them?

This was awesome
I was 7 years old again for just a few minutes. You made me smile so much with this. Please do more. Thank you so much!!!

Best decade ever!! Thanks a bunch for this upload 😊 I was a teenager at this time heading to OSU, but did a lot of babysitting and remember some of these.

Man, I didn't realize that there were so many strange & weird toys back then! Very interesting stuff, thanks Rhetty!

Glad I missed these. Was in college. Too much fun with Sony Walkmans, cassette tapes, and parachute pants. Haha

[Strimbles]

I had a Rude Ralph, a Manglor, Madballs, an Ooze-it, and a Boglin.

What a lucky kid!

Wow I can't tell you how much I appreciate the nostalgia memories of all these toys in the 80s I once owned and forgot, .it makes me both glow and cringe at some of these toys I had as a young girl and loved and now can't figure out why haha 😂❤️

Mystic Warriors of Change look awesome. The 80s had such amazing toys. I was born in 86 so absolutely loved the 80s toys at 90s car boots.

The radioactive animals are awesome too.

[sallykohorst]

Yes alot of weird toys. Thanks for sharing them.

Digging up all these old commercials took some time and work, i appreciate this glimpse into my childhood!

I had a pretty extensive collection of micronauts. Although, they may have been from the 70's.

Man, how many memories! I just remembered I had 2 of those "Convertors" not counting the Valkyrie from Macross
