our favourite was the tangerine dodecahedron
Those of you who were kids in the ’70s may want to check out this list of the Top 100 Toys From The 70’s or Thereabouts. Nostalgia central: All the toys you ever guilted your parents or parent into selling their blood to make sure you had for the holidays.
Everything from Stretch Armstrong to Simon to Slime to the Star Wars Death Star Playset* and god bless him, the Six Million Dollar Man. And that’s just the S’s.
Also, a funny little blurb about each. My favorite, on the joys of AD&D:
“For the disinterested, there were at least the multi-coloured, translucent resin dice with an unexpectedly large number of sides (our favourite was the tangerine dodecahedron).”
*Honest to god, I once figured out how to stage Jesus Christ Superstar on my Death Star Playset. I’m really not gay.
