Growing up in the 90s was a privilege. We didn't have much. No internet or cellular phones or iPads. Only tmnt mortal kombat and batman toys and only had the sega nes and arcade machines at the mall. While the big kids hog all of them. Saturdays consisted of watching the best cartoons, riding our bikes, having water balloon fights and having sleep overs while staying up to discuss the meaning of life after playing snes games. Simple but life was sweet in the 90s-early 2000s. Dammit I want to go baaaack 😓😥😔😭
I have a way we can go back. Meet me at the base of the Space Needle November 14th at 3:27am. Bring : 2 sets of underwear socks and tshirts and one pair of rugged waterproof pants, 1 pair rubber soled sneakers, one light reflective jacket. Ask no questions 😶
Emmanuelle, me too!! I would give anything to go back, & leave the complete insanity & misery that is 2020, behind!! Idc what anyone says about the '90s! That was my childhood & those were much better times!! We kids definitely didn't have much to worry about, back then.
I know the Titanic was a super tragedy. But I still get a huge laugh at the part in the movie when the guy falls off the railing and hits the fan then spins on into the water.
Can you Imagine all those people in the water too. & when the stern broke apart Coming that heavy big thing coming down on all them. yes it broke apart. But another fact is. it did not come apart until it was completely underwater. The bow was still hanging on by the keel.
I still have that Titanic bot but the motor included inside the toy doesn't work anymore, I got that toy on a Christmas present back in the beginning of the 2000's
I was one of the kids who used the water wrigglers in suggestive ways. Even today I can’t help but “wiggle” it and giggle. It was like the shake weight of the 90’s lol but with glitter.
Thanks Laura, Didn’t have any but I remember the commercials booger and dancing doll. At least the doll didn’t twerk. Did play with lawn darts when they first came out . Also my weapon of choice in the zombie apocalypse.🤠 Oh ya the sparking Barbie commercial looked like an original SNL spot.🎃
Geez, please don't give any of these companies any ideas of a twerking doll. I cringe so hard at the thought of that, & the implications of it are terrifying!!
The hairy balls you hurl lmfao i remember seeing some of these but never having them. Ohh God i miss the creativeness of the 90s. Frankly its cool seeing how even toys have been affected by all the PC culture lol
For some reason this reminds me about "Yoga balls" originally being sold in Toys R Us. They were quickly adopted as the exercise equipment and never again as something for kids. No doubt the company that made them realizing they could mark up the price for gyms.
That Savage Mondo Blitzers commercial narrated by the legendary Victor Caroli (best known for narrating Transformers episodes and a lot of Hasbro toy commercials) really made my day. He's still active and his photography work is incredible! www.caroliphotoart.com/
As fun as your videos are,I feel it's mainly due to your funny and witty personality. Honestly,it takes a lot to make me laugh,but your videos always manage to give me a chuckle. :)
I was pretty boring with my tous back then. It was all about TMNT and MMPR for me. I fondly remember these commercials but I missed the craze on a lot of these.
lmao! I remember seeing Titanic bot in one of those toy stores in malls that somehow got away with selling nothing but knock-offs and bootlegs, around when the movie came out.
I had a mad ball that I glued to the end of May cars antenna that was able to extend up and down, so I could extend it all the way up and easily find my car in a parking lot
My brain shook in my skull when I saw the Savage Mondo Blitzers. I had a few of them (the football player and the Gun Runner ones I think). My nostalgia bone was hit really hard, thank you for allowing me to remember those.
Aw I actually owned a few of the Savage Mondo figs as a kid. And I laughed way to hard at Challenger Bot....I mean it was a tragedy but I didnt expect that soundbite lol. Maybe scratch that off my list for the next product developing meet at work lol. Great vid as always!
@@megatronjenkins2473 ..... nice. I just ran the skates across any flat surface I could find. I’m pretty sure that I took them to school, and the teacher confiscated them.
Another fun filled, dare I say, educational video. As for having any weird toys back in the day can’t say I did, not like today I’m sure I have a few hiding in the shadows
I had Gooey Louie. My mom thought it was the grossest toy ever. I remember hearing about a cabbage patch kid you could feed and it's mouth moved to eat. It was recalled because girls got their hair stuck in its mouth. Also, some Teletubbies were recalled because adults thought some of the words they said sounded offensive.
Oh, man. My sister had a Po and La La doll growing up. I remember us laughing about hearing “bad words” and even my mother cracked up when she heard what we all thought was profanity. Thanks for reminding me about those!
Love your videos like always good to see a new one and I agree with you disrespectful is the one of the Titanic transformer and that's saying a lot cuz I love the transformers and I remember the hairy balls thing that's funny
Oh wow. I never seen most of these. And the ones I am familiar with, I remember seeing the commercials. In particular, #8, #5, and #4. Great video as always Laura! A totally radical blast from the past!
Awesome list of weird toys. I do remember a few of these and its crazy how toy companies thought some of these were a good idea. The water jiggler was definitely interesting...
Your narrative about these toys was so spot on. Especially the Titanic Bot and that Suzy doll, boy did you hit the nail on the head with that opinion. As usual a pretty funny and entertaining video. Thanks. By the way have you seen Bigfoot on the Island yet, ha ha.
I didn't have any of those toys, I was already in high school by the early 1990's and too focused into my Sega Genesis/Playstation lol but I do remember most of them. Lot of bad ideas made it to the finish line back in the 1990's. What will people think of us 100 years from now?
My old bandmate can do a perfect impression of a jibber jabber, and sadly I am always the only one to get the impression. Seriously, how does no one remember that sound!?
As someone who was born in the 90s I had Gooey Louie it was fun lol and I’m sure I saw a titanic bot once at a garage sale. Also hope you, dante and muffin are all well.
StarCom and Z-Bots were awesome. And tiny detaching transforming robot watch! And Punch Poppers? Flywheel car that you rev up and hit a clutch button. And The Animal!
Anybody ever heard of sparking razor jetts heel wheels? They are like rollerdlade Barbie but for actual kids shoes. I found a pair online last year and had to buy them even though I'm post-30... they actually work and are quite well constructed.
Someone must have had rocks for brains when they decided to make that Titanic bot. What's really in poor taste is the fact there were still survivors alive in the 90s. "Hey grandma, look at this, I got the Titanic Bot, isn't it cool?"
those things you listed as far as I can google, do not have robots made of them, but Titanic , Hindenburg, and the world trade center have been Halloween costumes. also some of these are similar to other toys with the same concept. Like the skate board ones. And the Barbie roller blades, there was a he-man toy that also shot sparks I wonder if it was dangerous too? and there are a TON of goose out toys in the children's board games section too. Hey this toy is a 2020 toy, but I just saw an add for a flamingo that poops in a toilet aside from being disgusting, it raises the question, why a flamingo? and why are all the pooping toys for girls?
Is no one mentioning how bizarre the story of the Sister and brother with Rollerblade Barbie is? What a dysfunctional family situation, "Playing Beauty Shop", somehow spray your brother's butt with enough hairspray that you can ignite a fire by rolling this doll across said butt? Not to mention, toys with flint gimmicks (especially back in the good ole 90's) usually required some pressure to cause a spark......
Dude, I was thinking the same thing! I was wondering just what other kind of weird, questionable activities, this brother & sister were engaging in. Totally dysfunctional situation!
I had a few of those mondo blitzers guys, but honestly I threw away the package and never paid attention to the names for most toys like that. I just called them things like "big hands guy" and "shark guy". They were fine.
Talk about weird toys! Now those kids really were playing with fire with Rollerblade Barbie, youch!! I can't believe these toys actually existed (or still exists!) Don't give your kids any toy, OK? Just be smart about it! Thanks for sharing, Laura! XXXOOO
Thanks for reminding me that I f**ked a water jiggler
This may be one of my favourite comments ever...
I told my wife I did that as a teen, now everyone we walk by one in a store she cracks up, even if we’re in a group. Oh, puberty....
😂😂😂😂
This sounds awesome!
I'm so glad to see I'm not the only young boy that did that, i feel a little more normal now🤣

Gotta listen to the song by Eddie Money my friend, I WANNA GO BACK! Look it up you will like it and I second that emotion 😂
I was given my Spark in 1979, so we probably have a number of things in common, lol! I still have some of my old toys, too.
@@megatronjenkins2473 awesome mate 👍
I have a way we can go back.
Meet me at the base of the Space Needle November 14th at 3:27am.
Bring : 2 sets of underwear socks and tshirts and one pair of rugged waterproof pants, 1 pair rubber soled sneakers, one light reflective jacket.
Ask no questions 😶
Emmanuelle, me too!! I would give anything to go back, & leave the complete insanity & misery that is 2020, behind!! Idc what anyone says about the '90s! That was my childhood & those were much better times!! We kids definitely didn't have much to worry about, back then.
Gooey Louie gives me mad 90s Vietnam Flashbacks, what a time for toys! Should do a featurette on Stretch Armstrong, another weird toy from history!
Yes, definitely.
I have 2 Titanic-bots! I like to tell people, "this is what really happened," as I transform it for them.
Please keep this series going, Laura! Oh, & do another 80s toys video, as well.
I know the Titanic was a super tragedy. But I still get a huge laugh at the part in the movie when the guy falls off the railing and hits the fan then spins on into the water.
As a kid, my friend and I would just pop in the 2nd tape to laugh at that part.
Can you Imagine all those people in the water too. & when the stern broke apart Coming that heavy big thing coming down on all them. yes it broke apart. But another fact is. it did not come apart until it was completely underwater. The bow was still hanging on by the keel.
I used to replay that part over and over. I love it when he hits the propeller. I was a sick child.
Omg jibber Jabba! I don't know why, but every time I heard a jibber jabba I either giggle or just break out in laughter.
Gooey Louie is a gross game but I love it!
I remember Stinkor from the He-Man line.... Man, that thing was aweful. :)
The classic 90’s toys , you can’t beat them 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Man, I really loved looking through the JC Penney and Sears catalog during Christmas time in the early 90s. Ahhhh childhood. McClunkey!!
I came across a box of Savage Mondo Blizters a year back. I should have gotten them. They look like fun!
I love this series I was born in the 2000s so I don't have any experiences with these but I like seeing weird stuff
LoL
I'm so old
All my stuff was weird 😂
I remember the water filled tube things from the early 80's
beat me to it
I remember having one in the 80s too but after a few days it started to leak...
My fav series! I have a gooey looue...he’s disgusting and never helps around the house
I want a Titanic-bot, it looks badass! So does that Tyrannosaurus Ax.
I have all the savage mondo blitzers sealed on card. Loved them as a kid of the 90’s.
I had several of them too. They may still be some laying in my parents' attic somewhere.
You should upload a video of them. I'm sure a lot of people would love to see them.
I still have that Titanic bot but the motor included inside the toy doesn't work anymore, I got that toy on a Christmas present back in the beginning of the 2000's
I just want to say, that roller blade Barbie came out around the same time as the movie Airborne... one of the greatest movies of all times!!
I was one of the kids who used the water wrigglers in suggestive ways. Even today I can’t help but “wiggle” it and giggle. It was like the shake weight of the 90’s lol but with glitter.
I remember most of them especially seeing the ads for them on TV
Thanks Laura, Didn’t have any but I remember the commercials booger and dancing doll.
At least the doll didn’t twerk. Did play with lawn darts when they first came out .
Also my weapon of choice in the zombie apocalypse.🤠
Oh ya the sparking Barbie commercial looked like an original SNL spot.🎃
Geez, please don't give any of these companies any ideas of a twerking doll. I cringe so hard at the thought of that, & the implications of it are terrifying!!
Damn Laura! Back at it again with the awesome weird toy vids!!!! LONG LIVE THE QUEEN!!!!!
As a child of 89' I remember alot of these.
Wow serious memory blast! Thank you Laura for the nostalgia!
I remember most of these, and I know I had a Jibber Jabba. But I didn't know about Hairy Hurlers or the controversy with Rollerblade Barbie.
The hairy balls you hurl lmfao i remember seeing some of these but never having them. Ohh God i miss the creativeness of the 90s. Frankly its cool seeing how even toys have been affected by all the PC culture lol
I miss that creativeness too man!
Oh roller blade barbie 💗 it's a good thing 80s and 90s babies had "stop drop and roll" firmly planted in our minds lol
"Kids can throw hairy balls at each other" your videos are great. Keep up the good work!
For some reason this reminds me about "Yoga balls" originally being sold in Toys R Us. They were quickly adopted as the exercise equipment and never again as something for kids. No doubt the company that made them realizing they could mark up the price for gyms.
That Savage Mondo Blitzers commercial narrated by the legendary Victor Caroli (best known for narrating Transformers episodes and a lot of Hasbro toy commercials) really made my day. He's still active and his photography work is incredible! www.caroliphotoart.com/
I miss the 90’s . Even these weird ones. Like jibber jabber
Me too, man!
These would all be right at home on the Island of Misfit toys.
They made a talking Gooey Louie, too.
He deserved his own cartoon series.
As fun as your videos are,I feel it's mainly due to your funny and witty personality. Honestly,it takes a lot to make me laugh,but your videos always manage to give me a chuckle. :)
I was pretty boring with my tous back then. It was all about TMNT and MMPR for me. I fondly remember these commercials but I missed the craze on a lot of these.
lmao! I remember seeing Titanic bot in one of those toy stores in malls that somehow got away with selling nothing but knock-offs and bootlegs, around when the movie came out.
I had a mad ball that I glued to the end of May cars antenna that was able to extend up and down, so I could extend it all the way up and easily find my car in a parking lot
My brain shook in my skull when I saw the Savage Mondo Blitzers. I had a few of them (the football player and the Gun Runner ones I think). My nostalgia bone was hit really hard, thank you for allowing me to remember those.
Blitzers and madballs were some of my fav childhood toys lol
Growing up in the 90s was all about poop, farts, piss, snot, balls and fire.
Yes, so awesome!! Good times, man!!!
Oh my gosh those water snakes were always cool to have but so embarrassing to play with bc no matter how innocent it looked awkward. 🤣
Aw I actually owned a few of the Savage Mondo figs as a kid. And I laughed way to hard at Challenger Bot....I mean it was a tragedy but I didnt expect that soundbite lol. Maybe scratch that off my list for the next product developing meet at work lol. Great vid as always!
I had a “Roller Blade Barbie”. I quickly ditched the doll to just play with the skates.
I tore off the skates and weaponized them for my G.I.Joes and Transformers, lol!
@@megatronjenkins2473 ..... nice. I just ran the skates across any flat surface I could find. I’m pretty sure that I took them to school, and the teacher confiscated them.
I dunno, "Hindenborg" It's got a ring to it 🤔

Awesome list of weird toys. I do remember a few of these and its crazy how toy companies thought some of these were a good idea. The water jiggler was definitely interesting...
That doll with the camera was REALLY creepy! Like WTF?
We had "Water Wigglers" in the 80s, but we called them "Water Weenies".. LOL
Your narrative about these toys was so spot on. Especially the Titanic Bot and that Suzy doll, boy did you hit the nail on the head with that opinion. As usual a pretty funny and entertaining video. Thanks. By the way have you seen Bigfoot on the Island yet, ha ha.
I can’t really add much more than you said about number 7 Laura, I can’t think of a more tasteless toy I have ever seen.
Someone green lit that!!
I love your narration. U crack me up!!! So funny xxx
I didn't have any of those toys, I was already in high school by the early 1990's and too focused into my Sega Genesis/Playstation lol but I do remember most of them. Lot of bad ideas made it to the finish line back in the 1990's. What will people think of us 100 years from now?
I remember gooey louie! Never had one myself but was often tortured by my cousins throwing those green slimy things at me.
Another amazing great video Laura a big hello & lots love to dontae, & muffins 🙂❤
I didn't have those hairy balls when growing up but I have them now
I remember a lot of these toys. Memories. Love the channel!
My old bandmate can do a perfect impression of a jibber jabber, and sadly I am always the only one to get the impression. Seriously, how does no one remember that sound!?
Love this series! Keep up the great content!🤘🤘
4:27 why didn't I think of that as a kid, and I remember these too, I guess I just wasn't smart enough to put two and two together at that age.
As someone who was born in the 90s I had Gooey Louie it was fun lol and I’m sure I saw a titanic bot once at a garage sale. Also hope you, dante and muffin are all well.
I remember those water wigglers as a kid! 😂
I'm picturing an adult lighting their cigarette with Barbie's rollerblade.
Or their blunt
StarCom and Z-Bots were awesome. And tiny detaching transforming robot watch! And Punch Poppers? Flywheel car that you rev up and hit a clutch button. And The Animal!
Great video Laura, as always 🤗
I just found one of those roller blade Barbies at goodwill lol
This is a high quality break down of an interesting collection of 90s garbage haha! 11/10!
SAVAGE MONDO BLITZERS .... I LOOOOOOOVED THESE!!!! MEMORY UNLOCKED
Nothing is more incredible than you ❤️❤️😉
I didn't have any of these specific ones, but I did have the Madballs eyeball. I think its name was Oculus Orbus if I remember correctly.
Great video, I didn't know of most of these.
7:10 I had that exact toy! Whew, what a throwback
*The Toy Queen's back!!!* 🙌🦖🦄
Luv ya *@Laura Legends* 🌼💛💯
7:13 I still have her! A bit beat up but still in good shape!
Anybody ever heard of sparking razor jetts heel wheels? They are like rollerdlade Barbie but for actual kids shoes. I found a pair online last year and had to buy them even though I'm post-30... they actually work and are quite well constructed.
Ok.
But.
Is anyone going to mention how bad ass roller blade barbie looks with those bitching sparks?
Because, she does.
Other toys in the Titanic-Bot line... Lusitania-Bot, Edmund Fitzgerald-Bot, and the Flight 19 Five-Pack. 😀
And the Hindenburg bot oh the humanity
At least there's no Twin Towers-Bot
That titanic bot is epicness Maximus! :-O
3:31 So basically, what every teen on Instagram is doing.
Someone must have had rocks for brains when they decided to make that Titanic bot. What's really in poor taste is the fact there were still survivors alive in the 90s. "Hey grandma, look at this, I got the Titanic Bot, isn't it cool?"
Millions die everyday in cars. Is it insensitive that hot wheels makes toys?
It’s a Chinese KO
Transformer-Bot is amazing. I really want that.
those things you listed as far as I can google, do not have robots made of them, but Titanic , Hindenburg, and the world trade center have been Halloween costumes.
also some of these are similar to other toys with the same concept. Like the skate board ones. And the Barbie roller blades, there was a he-man toy that also shot sparks I wonder if it was dangerous too?
and there are a TON of goose out toys in the children's board games section too.
Hey this toy is a 2020 toy, but I just saw an add for a flamingo that poops in a toilet aside from being disgusting, it raises the question, why a flamingo? and why are all the pooping toys for girls?
Conspiracy theory types say it’s to normalize or attempt to attract kids to “scat fetish”, etc
Don’t ask me ...
Love these videos, thanks for the great content. I’d totally dig these toys when I was young.
I have the shopper of Toys R us Whaooo What memories! 😢
Water wigglers have been around for waaay longer than the 90s
In a chaotic everyday I’m so happy for these videos of nostalgia and escapism ❤️ Thanks, Laura! 👋🏻

Omg, I remember these toys. What the heck were they thinking?! lol
I want a TITANIC-BOT! 🤖 😀
I kid you not but my sister had that rollerblade barbie and no joke i tried and see if i could catch something on fire with it lol
Cybertronians, the true reason why ghost ship stories exist.
Great fuckin work Broadside!
My brother had Gooey Louie! I do remember most of these!
Super fun and informational video
Hey Laura I remember gooey Louie from tv commercials from the 90s
I had a few of those mondo blitzers guys, but honestly I threw away the package and never paid attention to the names for most toys like that. I just called them things like "big hands guy" and "shark guy". They were fine.
1:42 The Transformer sure to fall in battle.
Talk about weird toys! Now those kids really were playing with fire with Rollerblade Barbie, youch!! I can't believe these toys actually existed (or still exists!) Don't give your kids any toy, OK? Just be smart about it! Thanks for sharing, Laura! XXXOOO
Holy crap, i had that titanic robot as a kid!!
It was my fav
