101 Dalmatian stuffed animals: In 1991 Mattel released stuffed animal puppies from 101 Dalmatians, I got all but one, on the back of the box they came in showed a picture of each plush animal, Lucky had a line through him that said unavalible, yet they had a picture of him and he was in the commercial. I have looked all over the internet and found someone selling one of the other puppies that was NOT Lucky, but it had the yellow collar that said Lucky (that I remember being on the dog listed as unavailble) why was it marked unavalible, (when obviously he was manufactured) and how can i get one?; Reply
1800’s Parker Bros. Game: I have a late 1800’s Parker Bros. game called "Krazy Konversation Kards". There are two stacks of cards. One stack are question cards, the other is answer cards. The object of the game (my guess is in a parlor setting) is to take turns drawing cards with one person asking a question and then another drawing a card and answering. It is evident that the wording is of the 1800’s era. My question is how much is a game like this worth?; Reply

1970’s Hong Kong toy livestock truck: I am looking for a toy truck that was sold in the 1970’s and was produced in Hong Kong. The truck had an orange cab and a blue box with a small opening in the back to put the horses and cows that came with it. The wheel base was white plastic and the tires were black rubber (with white in the middle). The horses were red chestnuts (I think there were 6) and very tiny (maybe 1/2 inch). The cows were grey and lying down (again I think there were 6 and they were approximately 1/4 inch tall). The truck itself was cheaply made and did not hold up well to play. I would really like to replace this truck that is from my childhood. I have searched on ebay for months to find one like it with no luck. Any ideas? Thanks so much for your help!; Reply

ACTION FIGURES: In the mid to late 80s my brother and I were addicted to a set of action figures that I am trying to identify. One of the primary features was that their vehicles or bases came with ropes or ribbons that could be clamped onto objects to make ‘zip lines’ or bridges. The ropes and nylon ribbons were very bright colored, and as I recall the actual action figures were relatively small, maybe around an inch or smaller, but my memory could be wrong on that one. I thought that these toys were associated with the TV show M.A.S.K but that does not appear to be correct, based on my limited research. I really hope that you can help me find these toys.; Reply
Action-boys: There was a toy I used to play with as a kid in the late 1980’s erarly 1990’s. And recently I started to think of what kinds of toys I used to play with. One sticks out in my head, but for the life of me, I cannot remember the name. I remember them being small, like micro-machines. It was almost all vechicals, tanks, plans, helicopters...ect. The two things I really remeber that stood out is the fact that the small action figures had magnets on their feet to stick to the vehicles, and one of the "army’s" had a symbol of a black triangle with an inverted red triangle in the center. I’ve searched google, yahoo, msn and every other search engine I could think of...and haven’t gotten any closer. I’m hoping you can help.; Reply

Cabbage Patch Recall: I have a cabbage patch doll that I have been trying to find out more about, I have recently found out that it was one of the Cabbage Patch Snacktime Kids they were vey popular in the 1980s across North America and many parts of Europe. This line of dolls was an early 1990s incarnation desighned to "eat" plastic snacks. The mechanism was a pair of one-way metal rollers behind a plastic slot and rubber lips, and there were 35 reported incidents where a childs hair or finger was caught in the mouths. On December 31, 1996 after 700,000 dolls were distributed in the U.S. in just 5 months , the CPSC along with manufacturers Mattel announced that they would place warning information labels on all unsold dolls. A week later in January 1997, CPSC and Mattel announced that all Cabbage Patch Kids Snacktime Kids Dolls were being removed from the market. I have heard that the majority of these dolls were destroyed after being recalled and that the doll I have is a rare collectors item. Can you tell me if it is and what the value of it is. DDJS; Reply

The toy is begining to show some real damage and I am looking to replace it with an exact duplicate. The problem is that I have skowered the earth in search of the same toy, but cannot find it. The toy is approx 6 inches long and and 3 inches wide. The top portion, or head of the toy is a kitten’s head with straight stiching for eyes. The lower portion of the toy is a ring for the infant to hold on to. The entire toy is pink velour like material that is stuffed with whatever it is stuffed animals are filled with. The sqeaker is embeded in the top portion of the toy. Any help would be appreciated! I can also email a picture of the toy if you have any clues.; Reply

kids reclining chairs: Same as Maggie had: Where can I find these? I bought a stuffed animal chair at Safeway grocery store sometime between 2004 & 2006 in Des Moines, Washington, a few miles south of Seattle.

They cost approximately $29.95 at the time I purchased it. The label says it is made by "Fine Toy Company, Ltd. for Safeway" but I’m having trouble finding that.

Military Theme toys - early/mid 1990s: During the early to mid 1990s, I remember having a number of toys from a futuristic military series, made primarily of plastic but with a few moving metal pieces. One of the toys I remember having looked like a 6-treaded tank with an aircraft carrier-type deck on top, with a ramp that could swing down from the middle of the deck to the base of the vehicle in the back. It had a turreted "head" in the front that could swivel from side to side and had a number of guns on it. The whole toy was about 9-10 inches long, was dark green and grey in color, and came with tiny diecast tanks and armored fighting vehicles that could fit up the ramp and on the top deck. I had a few other vehicles from the same series, such as a light blue plane, about 9 inches long, that could separate into several different components, and in the middle had a laterally rotating "landing pad" that you could attach a tiny diecast jet onto, as well as another toy from the series that looked like a cargo plane (about 5 inches long) that had twin helicopter-type rotor blades on either end of the wings, was tan in color, and the front of the plane was hinged so it could swing upward to let tiny diecast vehicles out of its interior. If you could help me find out what series of toys this was, I would be so incredibly grateful.; Reply

table hockey game: I’m looking for information on a table top rod hockey game produced and distributed in the US in the early 1990s that featured 3D figures ala current Stiga games however each figure’s control rod had a "push button" in the center of the control rod’s knob that caused the 3D figure to "shoot", with a "flipping" action, of the figure’s hockey stick. This action was independant of and augmented the normal "twisting" of the control rod knob that caused the figure to rotate on it’s position post. It was a cool feature as a figure in pocession of the puck could use the puch button to "flip" pass the puck, over a defending figure and it’s stick to a teammate figure without having to rotate the passing figure. I’m interested in discovering the manufacturer and model of this game. as well as years of manufacture.; Reply

TEDDY BEAR - LIFE SIZE, WHITE, HOLDING RED HEART: I’m trying to find a bear I had as a child. I’m guessing it was made in the late 1970’s or early 1980’s. It was "life-size", maybe three feet tall, white, and furry. It was stuffed with foam pellets, and maybe there were other kinds of stuffing inside it but I don’t remember. It had a red plastic nose (maybe it was velvety, I don’t remember) and it was holding a red heart pillow with both of its forepaws (I think the heart was a velvety material, and it was stuffed looser than the actual bear). It sat upright. I’m pretty sure it had blue eyes, and I think they were flat and white with bright blue irises and black pupils. This is all I can remember about it; it was a hand-me-down from my cousin, and it was my favorite toy when I was in preschool. One day while I was at preschool my parents gave it away without consulting me first. I have never forgiven them for that and I still think of my bear (I called him "Strawberry'se" because of his red nose; that wasn’t the name he came with) and miss him so very much. I would like to try to find a similar bear, or at least know what type of bear it is. I really hope you can help me! Thank you!; Reply

It is made of hard plastic and the cat wears a little tinkling bell around its neck.
