I’m no longer afraid to admit that it would have been a tough decision for me as a kid between Star Wars and Ziggy.

Those sleeping bags look much cozier than the New Kids On the Block sleeping bag I had in the early '90s…these look like they're real cloth!

I definitely would've gone for the Ziggy sleeping bag. It would've gone well with the backpack handed down to me as a kid from an older cousin: “Don’t follow me… I’m lost too!”

Ziggy?!?! Over Star Wars? For a boy in the 70s? :p

This post is bad and you should feel bad. 😀

If you said, "Charlie Brown"… okay. Even R2-D2 and C-3PO have trouble matching the cuteness of Snoopy and Woodstock. But Ziggy? He's like… a blatant knock-off Charlie Brown, the whole "being a loser is funny and sweet" shtick, except with obesity thrown in for good measure.

Star Wars was CHiPs in space and it just doesn't get any better than that.
