orguss01 Posted April 24, 2006 Share Posted April 24, 2006 Ok guy's me my brother are tryin' to figure out whether one of our memories is real or just someting we created... In the 80's there was this figure that you could stretch and rip apart..tear the arms and legs off. Not strechArmstrong.It was soft and green..like Play doh but it "healed" it self when you put the parts back together. Then you could rip him apart aagin. I think you had to dip him in a tank of the solution that he came with.. I know somebody out there had this..help us out please....We might not get to sleep if we dont figure this line out and you know how that sucks.... Orguss01...over............csssssssssssssssssss Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wolfx Posted April 24, 2006 Share Posted April 24, 2006 Ahhh...the days when toy manufacturers didn't need to worry about safety standards and toys that mess up upholstery. *sulks at never getting a tub of Ghostbusters ectoplasmic goo* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roy Focker Posted April 24, 2006 Share Posted April 24, 2006 That's the toy and I know because I got one birth day way back then. The toy a piece of crap. After I took out of the packaging I passed it around to all my friends. After everyone had a chance to rip it apart ,put back together and drop it a few times. It looked like a hairy green ball of crap. It was thrown away 2 minutes later. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Knight26 Posted April 24, 2006 Share Posted April 24, 2006 Hey while we are on the subject of nasty 80's toys, does anyone know how to wash out that 80's slime, my GFs kid got hold of some and now it is all over several pieces of his and her clothes.

Keith Posted April 24, 2006 Share Posted April 24, 2006 I don't think you were supposed to keep that slime past the 80's, who know's what it's mutated into now, hell, it could start walking & talking any day now...BURN IT! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then just scrap the slime off and launder as usual. I'd pre-treat the spot where the slime was with some liquid detergent first, though.
