Free toys in packages of food!!! They're sturdy plastic (meaning they look NOTHING like what you see here. ) Of course I ran FREE through the inflation calculator, just for grins. FREE in 1955 is equal to "Identity Theft Scam" in 2009.

Woods Edge & Fighting Ships, two games I never owned. How awesome is that artwork though? Nazis dying, guys tossing grenades, ships exploding. Sadly the games don't look like they lived up to the hype.

MAGNETS!!!! I never ordered them but I sure thought that teacher was hawt!! Looking at this I'm surprised that I didn't recognize the artwork as being Ross Andru's earlier than today.

I had a G.I.Joe, but he was always in the Army, never the Navy or Air Force...

..except for the time I tied him to a kite, flew it over the highway and let him drop (via a secondary pull string). Poor Joe.

If all else fails, get yourself a polaris nuclear sub made out of 200lb. test material and it SHOOTS MISSLES AND TORPEDOES!!!! (Can you tell I always wanted one of these?) It also had an electrically lit instrument panel. How fantastic is this?

purchased from the Canadian Navy Surplus Store in Burnaby BC.
