I did fine on both, even on ones I didn't know, but I saw this page first. Shouldn't the links to see the videos without starting be available on this page? That was the entire thing that held me up.

100% on the old quiz my first try.
80% on the Really old quiz my first try.

......Now i feel old...and im only 18!

Edit: when i was a kid i had a Batman action figure, but it was batman on his Motercycle.
You push it across the floor a little bit and it would keep going even f it hit a wall.
and of corse being the little kid i was, batman and his bike would fly across the room, fall off mountains, and emerge from underwater with a bid splash....sigh.
i miss it.
I FOUND A PIC!

Don't forget to tell us your favorite toy from when you were little! Links to pictures and/or commercials would be awesome, too.

Er, the Nintendo... I guess that was a fairly obvious answer for someone who made a profile on a gaming website. I don't think any pictures are really necessary (and I don't know how to embed stuff in posts anyways).

I guess more specifically, I remember playing Bubble-Bobble a lot when I was like 10 or so.

To hell with toys when I was a little kid! Last X-mas, my friends got me what I'd been wanting for a long time: A Cthulhu Plushie!! It was the best X-mas ever!



And I missed one on the REALLY old quiz. How annoying. My memory must finally be failing me in my old age. But the commercials were awesome! I remembered watching every single one when I was a kid.

Weird. My video stops loading at about one minute, and if I try playing it, whatever's loaded starts to be erased. (Like I lose two seconds of loaded video every second I watch.)

Edit: Saw the other links, same problem there. (Firefox browser and... I honestly have no idea what my OS is, I'm using Windows XP if that means anything.)

... All of these toys are strictly American.
I only saw like two of those ads, and the toys had different names.
For shame, Escapist.
FOR SHAAAAAME

Or, you know, maybe my memory is just awful.
Who knows?

so much memories... and to think that i owned most of these toys... i fell old...

no lite-bright ? (even if it's older than the 80's).

when i was around 6 or 7 i had some my little poney, some barbies of course, a collecovision and a few transformers too. it was also the age of the big wheels...

From that time period, i love the original add of Zelda with the guy who yell "Zelda!" (sorry i dont have access to you tube)

i missed my pound puppy, why did you remember it to me (go cry)

:D

9/10 for both of them, that's kinda scary how well I remember some of this stuff.

Transformers and Ghostbusters for me, I still have that bloody plastic proton power pack in my attic somewhere.

Same here, it's been like that for all the video's on the escapist since last thursday for me. I can get them to play but the scroll bar thing for them is messed up.

The regular posed no real problems except for a little stutter in memory, but I had never seen commercials 4, 5 or 6 before. I actually got 5 pretty easy, but 4 and 6 forced me to hit three times.

Also, I now have so many of those damned songs in my head...

Video never loaded for me. Managed to get 7/10 by guessing the names of toys I recognized, though. :/

(Only tried the "old" quiz; figured the "really old" quiz isn't worth trying if the video isn't loading.)

In both the quiz and the link to the video gallery, I just get the "click to play" screen, and when I click, the little spinner just spins indefinitely. :(

Using Firefox 3.5.5 on XP Pro, had a Flash update installed this morning, and going over an SSH proxy tunnel.
