This is a flash back to the simple times of youth! PRESTO MAGIX!! I had about million of these and loved to get doubles and triples so I could set up the scenes in different ways......ahhhhhh youth!! Anyway if you are unfamiliar with these you got a diorama scene and some transfers that you could rub with a pencil onto the scene and set it up for whatever action you wanted. There were so many sets available for different lines and such but Star Wars was my main attraction. I got these three MIP with the display box which brought back some memories!! They've been sitting displayed but I might have to do an update later because I am itching to rub one off with these beauties. I have some others that I'll be posting over time but this is the first batch.
Uhh huh huh, Hey Bevis, he said rub one off...
Hehehehehehehehe, yeah! Heheheehehheehe....
Loved them too! I think my favorites were the Marvel ones.
ReplyDeleteYep, I had Batman ones all over the place!! As I keep looking up Presto Magix sets I keep remembering having almost all of em!
DeleteI so remember having a few of these.
ReplyDeleteIts funny how something so simple was so much fun!
DeleteI loved these things! I hadnt thought about them in a good while.
ReplyDeleteGreat! Glad I could spark the memories! Thats why I like doing this!! Getting those forgotten memories flooding back when I research stuff and then everyones comments :)
DeleteI loved these. I had them for The Empire Strikes Back and still have some mint in package for Return of the Jedi. I also had a Batman set too. So much fun.
ReplyDeleteI have Empire ones too and will post em soon. Batman sets were a staple for me. I was just thinking about a GI Joe set but that might have been colorforms....Looks like I have a new hunt!

My Grandma would get me one every time we went out shopping when I was little :)It'd get me to sit through Church!
DeleteI bought two of the these this morning at my local grocery store in Albany, LA. One is the Sarlacc Pit and the other is the Ewok Village. Not sure how long they were boxed up, but there were still a few left. Price was good too, $1.29 each. Still sealed up. Neat to find a little treasure like this.
ReplyDeleteWOW!! Buy em all up and sell em on EBAY!!Thats a heck of a find :)
