"Silly Putty"

Following on from my previous threads on old skool stuff, such as top trumps, trolls and old cartoons, a conversation with absolutneo reminded me of another legendary craze.

Silly Putty, it was kind of like cool play doh which you could form into a variey of shapes and when it was some where near spherical it bounced, and quite impressively too!

Was a huge "crave about" ten years ago, and i think it got killed of by "the great POG invasion of '96". Silly putty was the stuff of legends, Anyone still got any? I think mine met with a tragic accident involving the hair of a "troll" a relic left over from a previous craze.

All hail silly putty!

Oh right, sorry i misunderstood.

I just never used to play with that kind off stuff, i spent most of my time on my Atari and Amiga.

Oh how the rocked back then, i still got tones of games for the Amiga up in me garage.

i was referring to the programme, i had a load of thunder cats action figures, including a panthrow in the tank, which was quite cool but probably ended up in a carboot sale!

Na i never really played with transformers or any kind of action doll type things.

a rare occasion i admit, but i do respect her knowledge of the old skool, a valuable insight to dodgy old crazes and transformers.

Bah. I read about 150 pages of a book, then did about another 4 hours worth of homework, never mind the work in school.

You got to do childish fun things. Bah. Teen angst time.
THE WORLD IS UNFAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAIR

silly putty..


You know what i did today!?

I got the wax off a baby bel and I moulded it into funky shapes.

Sixth form truly is boring - But this reminded me of childish fun things

Me and the guys used to play pogs in work. Anyway....

I was the best. Have several 1000 in a crate in the loft. Along with multiple metal slammers.

Now that I have humiliated myself... I'll say no more.

You need Mystique?

Think she might be out on the town......

Remember a few year ago when YoYo's were in, lol, i went out and bought one of them ProYo thingys, cost about £10 wich is a fair bit when you are a little kid.

That only lasted a few months though.
