Here is a link to the whole article. Interesting bit about the article - it’s written by a Brit and there is a bit of language that is okay in England but not so much here. Makes for an interesting example of two peoples separated by a common language.

Of the 10, we’ve owned these…

#1. Yard darts - I loved this game. No, I would never let my kids play with it now.
#5. The Sky Dancer - I think Nana was responsible for that one.
Honorable Mention: Manley’s Disco Ball - remember these? Who’d thunk they’d explode and catch your house on fire.

    i particularly enjoyed the tagline at the end of the johnny reb commercial — ‘every boy wants a remco toy! … (and so do girls)’

    i remember making creepy crawlies at a friend’s house - and part of the memorhy is the smell of them ‘cooking’ which allows me to totally understand why my parents would NOT allow one at our house
