I had a Visonaries toy as well. Loved it!

Same, although I lost/broke/corrupted the various pieces very quickly    I think I also had this -

[tubby]

Should I take my pick?

Should I take my pick?

Go for it!

Ox Tales, man.  I remember an entire summer holiday watching that in the mornings and guffawing to myself everytime Gaylord the Gorilla rocked up in his polka dot pants.

Hahaha WTF!? Only in the 80s 

Thomas the Tank Engine... there's a massive piece of my childhood. Even had a really crappy branded suitcase.

Amazing it lasted this long really.

Ashamed that I didn't go for it myself actually.

[Titi Camara]

10 mins for Lawnmowerman...has anyone given him a nudge?

[Sheer Magnetism]

Teen Titans is a class pick. It's gone a bit preschool lately but the DCAU was really firing on all cylinders for quite a few years.

[Klippity Klopp]

Chip N Dale - Classic theme.

Ch ch ch Chip n Dale!

"When there's trouble you know who to call - TEEN TITANS!"  I love that stupid song more than I should.

[Betty Blue]

Chip N Dale - Classic theme.

Ch ch ch Chip n Dale! 

Quite surprised it went unpicked for so long! Along with Ducktales and Gummi Bears is was one of my big favourites. Breaks my all-lasers cartoon theme    but definitely worth it.

Also, hands up who had some very confusing feelings towards Gadget Hackwrench

Sorry for the delay Ladies

[Nessy76]

Never thought of the Tick as a kids show, really, but I don't see why not.

[Betty Blue]

I'm honestly not sure. I usually judge on what time a cartoon was shown. Those after 6pm in the UK are generally considered more grown up. Anyone remember when The Tick was broadcast?

[Chakan]

Never heard of The Tick.

It was on at night, but it's still an OK pick IMO - it wasn't R rated or anything.

[Betty Blue]

I think it's fine anyway. I don't want to be too fussy with picks at this stage.

Neither is Dr Who...

[Rysoph76]

Are we doing an extra round or stopping at 5? Sorry, just need to check if I need to come back when I get home from work

[Vishwa Atma]

I think we should do atleast one.... I still have so many in my head!!

[Betty Blue]

I'm definitely keen on another round if people are up for it. However, I'd be surprised if it got back to you before tomorrow at this rate!

[Klippity Klopp]

Six rounds sounds good to me.

[Rysoph76]

Ok no problem, happy to do another round

[Samie]

Art Attack? 

[Klippity Klopp]

Art Attack? 

Yes loved this guy in it.



Also liked it when Neil made those big attack creations by using things like tyres or loads of salt on the floor and when the camera went birdeye view it became something.  I've not described that well.

[Samie]

 

I know what you mean mat.e Used to love the Big Art Attack.

[Betty Blue]

For no real reason I always absolutely hated Neil Buchanan. He just looked like a smarmy git. If we're talking art shows then it was all about another guy, who remains unpicked and I do hope we'll see him

Not Rolf, surely?

[Betty Blue]

Not Rolf, surely?

God no! If any scandal came up on this guy I think I'd have to give up.

Great pick on Bananaman. Loved that show as a kid. Nice way of brainwashing kids into eating something vaguely healthy too!

[Nessy76]

Yes, I loved Bananaman, and I was one of a few who had actually read the original strip in Nutty a couple of years before.  (Nutty later merged with the Dandy, and I believe Bananaman now features in the Beano.) Voiced by the "Goodies" as well.

[Klippity Klopp]

Bananaman was quality.

Made me want to eat bananas and I felt I got an energy boost.

Weird hey.

[El Lobo]

Earthworm Jims a great shout

[Hazell]

Oh shit, I think I know who you mean! Completely forgot about that show.

[Betty Blue]

Oh shit, I think I know who you mean! Completely forgot about that show.

Yep, wish I'd remembered as well. Definitely would've picked it.

[Vishwa Atma]

My turn now?

[Klippity Klopp]

Knightmare has been picked. Very early pick.

WTF - I could have sworn it was picked.

[Nessy76]

Knightmare, classic!

[Hazell]

I was going to pick Superted before I changed my mind at the last minute. Good choice.
