Every once in a while, a man comes along and reminds us children of the '90s why it wasn't so bad growing up then. And for some reason, it's usually Blade. What didn't the '80s screw up?

I want a Jaws the revenge beach towel Me too. Say Blade old sport, if the two of us mugged you and stole it asked you really, really nicely, would you let us have co-ownership of that radical beach towel? ;D Seriously, I remember when Shasta Cola did that offer, and my grandparents refused to order it for me, and got me a He Man towel instead, since by their logic, the He Man towel was cheaper than the JAWS one would have been, counting the number of cases of cola they'd have to buy and shipping and handling.

I never got to have a vinyl Halloween costume. My mom was(well she still is) a drastic cheapskate. There was no way she would pay for a vinyl costume when she could throw some junk together and act like she was really creative. I wanted a Jem costume really bad. How much did vinyl costumes coast anyway? My aunt made my cousin wear the same costumes every year.

I always wanted a few of those vinyl ones when I was younger, but my dad said they were crap. I did get a spidey one year. I still remember the year I wanted to go as Jerry Rice, though, when cheaply made NFL jerseys were the rage in the early 90's. They didn't have his costume in my size so my dad made me get Emmitt Smith and as a lame consolation, a foam cowboy hat. I looked like such a tool.

I had a really bad vinyl army man costume. It had a pair of vinyl, if not plastic, camo pants, a vinyl military vest sort of doohickey, a plastic army helmet, and a few toy items like handgrenades, a plastic knife, a canteen, dogtags with nothing printed on them, etc. It was basically the closest I could get to a GI Joe costume.
It was...horrid. I wore the plastic pants one year when it snowed/sleeted to sled in. That was the end of them.
I think I mostly wanted it to play GI Joe in but I ended up wearing it for a Halloween I'm sure. At least I think I did.
I know one year I got a questionable-at-best Power Rangers costume. During the Mighty Morphin era, I got the black ranger costume. I'm neither black nor asian, so I couldn't really pull of either. But I was so psyched to have my own Power Rangers costume! Only to find out...the amazing helmet I was hoping for? Just plastic. Just a cheap plastic elastic band mask. I'm sure if there was a picture of my face upon realizing this, it would've been the image of the most crestfallen kid ever.
