So I stepped out to take my dog on a walk last night and found this little feller on the sidewalk outside of my house. (There were a bunch of other toys too, but they were lame).

WHOA, nice garbage find! WTF, I wish people just tossed toys on the ground like used diapers where I live! This reminds me of when I was a kid and I had a "broken toy collection." Pretty much if I found the broken parts of any toy on the street, I grabbed it and kept it. |

my wife has probably thought about throwing my toys out on the sidewalk. hopefully no dog walking toy collectors will be wandering by when she does. and googly eye booska rules. |

Generally all I find are broken Henesey bottles, or greasy Popeye's containers. So Booska was like finding gold! I found a He-Man arm and an army guy (the green guys on a plastic base) while roto-tilling my backyard! Wonder if I'll find anything when I do the front yard. |

i want to see a pic of the lame toys! and yes, definitely nice find. if i found something like that in my yard, it would probably be one of my toys that my son drug out, scuffed up, filled with dirt, and left in the rain... |

If they're still there when I get home from work I'll try to remember to take a pic - the only thing I can remember is a plush car from the animated movie Cars. Oh, and a plush Banana in Pajamas. |

sweet find. I think I have the same one on my desk, bandai 1982? check the feetsies. it's a great toy too, real hard plastic with a lot of texture. edit: oops, mine says 1992 also. |

It is Bandai - I thought it was '92, but I just glanced quickly. First thing my eye picked out was the "Made in Japan" though! And yeah, tough vinyl and very textured. You could use it to sand down a rough hewn piece of lumber! |
