Their hard plastic parts were really heavy. You could knock the crap out of someone with those!!! I recall feeding real cookies to my Cookie Monster puppet and having crumbs run down my hand.

i remember getting excited when each year’s newest catalog came out for the “Best” chain. my mouth watered at all the cool set-ups they had for Star Wars, Megos, etc.

do kids have experiences like that nowadays? do dept chains even do big catalogs anymore?
