Memories of Childhood...Images only please

Action Man: I had the Land Rover. Also seen here the Talking Tank Commander and the Adventurer(which is what I got for a birthday one year).

There were two versions of the talking tank commander, the original had a backpack which played tiny discs (each about the size of an old 10p) there were 2 or 3 included I think. The second version had the voice built into the actual action man , he had a speaker on his back, you then pulled a string on his neck to hear random phrases.

My one(tractor) see the other thread for a story about it.

The tractor looks really good.I never got much Lego as a kid but I had loads of tractors and farm toys made by Britains.

The monstrosity that was Marvel skimmed milk....can still remember the taste....YUK!!!

School bunsen burners..

Many homes had at least one of these LP's... we certainly did...

(Some good stuff there, we didn't have Marvel milk though but of the sweets I liked rock hard sugar mice rather than chocolate mice, the black jack turned your tongue black, flying saucers were fun and all cost 1/2p each. Bunsen burner and the stand I remember well and you might be interested to know that those albums used to feature a Page 3 girl-that one is the gorgeous Jilly Johnson FYI.)

Remember when shops had these?

A late 70s must have for many..
