There was a role playing book whereby you can choose which path or action you wana take. I think it's called Lonewolf or something.
Comics:
- Tintin

Bob was my favourite of the three... he was someone I could relate to.
I hated the Crimebusters series though... it was too 'dude-ish' for my liking.

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles
Heroes in a half-shell

They're the world's most fearsome fighting team (We're really hip!)
They're heroes in a half-shell and they're green (Hey - get a grip!)
When the evil Shredder attacks
These Turtle boys don't cut him no slack!

Splinter taught them to be ninja teens (He's a radical rat!)
Leonardo leads, Donatello does machines (That's a fact, Jack!)
Raphael is cool but crude (Gimme a break!)

How about the orange coloured comb with a long and sharp end? This is in the early to mid 90s.Ah Beng students liked to put inside their back pockets with the sharp end jutting out to show people.
How about overlap hairstyle? Anyone sported it before? I did. -
seeing how the crap cartoons that kids nowadays are watching, i think the cartoon we used to watch in the late 80s, early 90s are still the best.
who can forget the original ninja turtles, ghostbusters, tranformers, he-man? truly excellent cartoons. -
Oh yeah.... I like the Constable Acai series of books too.
Anyone remember him? -

haha.. so nostalgic. i used to sneak into the TCS(then SBC) warehouse and found xiao DD!Originally posted by terohoh:How many of you guys grew up in this era (80s)? Remember Bingfen 83, the variety show? Kaka, the snack which has a toy inside the packet? Playing Kuti kuti? Or ice cream sticks? Styrofoam aeroplanes where you attach the wings to the body, then put the plastic beak on the tip of the plane? Or parachute soldiers where a plastic parachute is attached to a toy soldier and you will climb to the tallest level of your hdb flat and throw it down? Small colorful water pistols? Nintendo? So many memorable things. For guys, flat top hairstyle, then followed by step hairstyle? What else can you guys think of? -

Nw kopitiam no sell ovaltine le,so sad ,used to drink in e 90sOriginally posted by poasdft:I remember always wearing friendship bracelets! I never took them off. I remember watching the tv shows like Macgyver and Alf! Time flies so fast!
Ovaltine
Great Eighties Ovaltine commercial with upbeat guitar band music and a man singing: "I can't get over Ovaltine... It's so delicious now. It tastes fantastic, WOW! It's a whole new scene, O- O- O- O-val-time.... I can't get over Ovaltine, I can't get over O-val-tine!!!"
Fruit and Fibre Cereal
A commercial where it looked like they were interviewing people on the street. The people were eating bowls of cereal. The cameraman or voiceover would say "That cereal looks good. What is it called?" and the person would always say "Oh, it's Fruit and....uh...... fruit and....." And then the slogan at the end: "Fruit and Fibre. Tastes so good, you'll forget the fiber."
Cocoa Krispies cereal
"Let Cocoa Krispies fill your spoon, and soon you'll be gazing at a cocoa moon. Sitting under a chocolate palm tree, by the cocoa sea." There was some other stuff before that but I can't remember it all.
Pizza Hut--A Swede's first Pan Pizza
This commercial probably wouldn't air in today's PC climate, but in 1984, it was one of Pizza Hut's "Your Hometown Pizza Hut" ads, which would end w/ the singers saying "AAAAAHH" (remember that). Two young American males and three American girls walk into Pizza Hut with Sven, a blonde male friend presumably from Sweden (two of the girls are holding his arms). Guy #1 says, "bet you don't have Pan Pizza back in Sweden, huh, Sven?" Sven replies, in the thickest, most cliched Swedish accent possible, "Zeee pahhhhn Peeeezzza? No-oh-oh-oh-oh!" The singers sing: "your first Pan Pizza at Pizza Hut/Pan Pizza made with AAAAAAH! cheese..." Guy #2 says, "YOU are NOT going to believe this," after which Sven and the girls laugh before sitting down. The singers continue: "All your favorite toppings! Oh please, can I wait just a minute for that..." Guy #1 then says, "for you, Sven, we OR-dered: a LAAAAARGE!" Sven says, "oh-h-h-h-h-h-h-h!" The voiceover man says something like, "the first time is ALWAYS the best time for a Pan Pizza at Pizza Hut, whether it's a Supreme, Pepperoni, or whatever your preference, everybody loves Pizza Hut Pan Pizza." While the VO man speaks, the camera shows close-ups of Sven eating his first pizza slice w/ a goofy, Gomer Pyle-ish grin on his face, and the two guys and three girls smiling at him in wonder. Then, Guy #1 asks, "so, Sven, what do you think of American cuisine?" To which Sven replies (don't laugh), "goooood, YAAAAAAH!!!" The singers conclude the ad by chiming in: "at your hometown Pizza Hut! Yaaaaahhh!" (instead of "aaaah!" Get it? LOL!)Nowadays, people would complain about an ad like this, but it was hilarious back in '83! Classic!

Yes, 3 investigators was my favourite. I think I read every single book. But i remember only 1 character's name which I think is "Pete"?Originally posted by fudgester:You read The Three Investigators too?
Bob was my favourite of the three... he was someone I could relate to.
I hated the Crimebusters series though... it was too 'dude-ish' for my liking.
I still remember going to Toa Payoh Library to wait for the librarian to push out a trolley of Tintin comics, and every kid will rush over to get it. It was that popular. -

Jupiter Jones - the brains behind the trio. Rank of First Investigator. Also known as 'First'. Slightly plump, but prefers to be called 'robust' or 'stocky'. Extremely brilliant and inquisitive mind.
Pete Crenshaw - The athlete. Rank of Second Investigator. Also known as 'Second'. The one who provides the muscle for the trio if and when they need it. Some call him the dumbest of the three, but I wouldn't. After all, he does come up with moments of inspiration at times.
Bob Andrews - The studious guy. Rank of Records and Research. Also known as 'Records'. The guy who does all the researching due to his part-time library job and his father's profession as a journalist. Also does all the records and filing.
Dude, I loved those guys. I loved their Headquarters in the salvage yard, the secret entrances, the business cards... everything about them was cool. -
