Something popped into my head recently that I remember playing to DEATH as a kid in the 80s, but I can not find a peep about it online. No auction, no image, nothing.
What I remember is a black wrisSauron's eyech with a wide face. It was a grey/black LED bowling game watch.
That's all I remember. No company, no nothing.
It's not common to find literally nothing when you research something online. It made me wonder if there's anything else out there lost to time. Anyone have any other examples from their past?

For me its this game I had as a kid . It had 4 semi trailers (each a different color) they would roll down a ramp (they each had their own fixed lane) and then a conveyor belt would take them back to the top and they would repeat the circuit . it was just like that penguin race game. I think it was called "truck racing" but I can't find any info on it anywhere...I've looked off and on for 3 years for it with no luck.

That truck-racing game sounds VAGUELY familiar - I'll have a look through some old toy brochures I have later and see if it's in them. How about this thing?  This is all I have left of a playset that I haven't been able to find ANYWHERE since. It came in a tall (ish) cardboard box illustrated with all the different characters. Just a load of plastic balls shaped like various insects. I remember a black beetle, and a red ladybird, and of course this little yellow thing.... |

I played with this two-pack of 4 inch MUSCLE figures for so long, that they're easily my favorite toys as a kid. I can't find any information on them whatsoever. I did manage to get a picture from a poster here, who found it on another site.
I know the feeling, when you have great memories of something, but can't seem to find it anywhere. It's definitely frustrating, but it makes it all that much more enjoyable when you do find it one day.

I've been looking for these stackable robot figures for many years. As a child I owned a set of miniature knock-offs that were purchased on a card at a drug store for under a dollar. I have a feeling these are larger and may have been made by Child Guidance. Here's a picture of the "Fun-Nee Men" from the 1968 Sears Christmas catalog:  |

It was orange in color and It was in the same line as another two- headed dragon standing ontwo feet like an allosaurus... I have both of them your asking about. Ill dig them out in a few days and post pics of them. Thank you! That would be very nice. Last time I saw the standing two-headed dragon in person, it was in the flea market back in 1990. As for the orange four-legged one, I never saw it in person... |

I remember these figures made by Bluebird. They were about 3 3/4 and there was 6 of them (3 good guys and 3 evil dudes). They had 4 buttons on their torsos that released their head, arms and waist-legs so they could be replaced with a helmeted head, an arm wielding a sword, some sort of spring loaded weapon (but not a launcher) and a pair of legs on some crappy little vehicle. I seem to remember them being called The Warriors of Kerrang, I remeber them being in the Argos catalog and in Woolworths. They also had 2 vehicles that came with non articulated figures. I can't find any pics or anything about them anywhere and no one has ever heard of them it's like imagined them!!!!!

How bout those letters that transformed into robots? or the ones that were letters and inside they popped out a picture of something that started with that letter? (Like the letter Z would have a Zebra inside or whatever?)
