  • A few weeks ago, week took a look back at the many and varied fan clubs that were running during the 1970s. This week, we're skipping ahead to the '80s and examining the totally radical fan clubs that you may or may not have been a part of.
    From gaming to music to movies and beyond, affix that stamp and allow 6 to 8 weeks for arrival as we clip on our badges and take part in the fan clubs of the '80s!
    If you enjoy the video, please consider liking it, commenting on it, and even subscribing to the channel. We'd love to have you join in on the fun!

      G.L.O.W. - What a perfect brand to have a fan club. I'm guessing other sports entertainment franchises (American Gladiators) had fan clubs too.

    I remember the A Team fan club. I got an invite from Dirk Benedict after I wrote to the Face Man as asked him for his autograph. He sent me a promo photo of him a long with an invite to the fanclub. LOL

      That’s awesome! Probably not too many people joined as a direct result of being encouraged to by one of the stars! 😆

    Doc Louis told me to join the Nintendo Fun Club. I mean, when your video games are telling to do that, you just gotta!

      Doc knows his stuff. Best to do what he says or he might send Little Mac to “persuade” you.

    I grew up in the 90s, and while I wasn't a member, I still remember seeing all the ads for the Power Rangers fanclub. Which I wish I'd been a member of.

      Curious to know what you got with your membership to that.

      @@RetroDaze The biggest thing was exclusive VHS tapes. Not episodes, but interviews and stuff. A membership card, of course, and stuff like magnets, stickers, cards, a lunch bag. A couple years ago Culturefly did a new version (a single box) that reproduced the membership card and lunch bag and included more adult-aimed stuff like a pint glass and bottle opener.
