Even though the auction just ended, I found one of those puzzles we all got in our childhoods, but never really had the patience to finish...

I love how they say ''Hours of fun''

Let me try:

"wonderful for gifts, parties, grab-bags, etc."
:) Yeah, really wonderful in times of advanced gameboys and PS3s! At least it's economical as it doesn't need power supply. :D

"Zig-Zaw"
What's 'Zig-Zaw'? A misspell of jigsaw?

Anyway, take a look at Dr. ELEPHANT's facial expression and hair. It looks as he had quite a hung-over from having several beers too much the day before. :p

"manufactured in the U.S.A. by THE ROALEX COMPANY, FOREST HILLS 74, N.Y."
I did a Google search using the address as keywords, and this is what I came across:
'Mighty Mouse' Vintage games
Two different 'Zig-Zaw' Puzzles

I saw a few of those, & might have fiddled with one, but I lacked the patience to solve it. :p

I think it depends on the environment you're in when you're holding a game like that in your hands. :lol: Imagine there's nothing else to do, the time barely passes by... so you're bound to fiddle around with it.
I know what I'm talking about. Been there, done that! :p

Remember that 60's mask somebody posted not too long ago? Well, here's the rest of the ugly costume!

I love how with the old American merchandise, they try to draw Astro like he's wearing clothing. With his unusually-red underpants overtop his pants.

God, that's a horrible costume >< Not only have I always hated it when they throw a picture of the character on a shirt and call it a costume, but it's not even a very good picture! XD

I wonder how it would look if someone actually wears it.

To fit on my ten year-old brother...the sleeves would go to just above his elbows, and the pant legs to his knees.


Hey, kids! Like Metropolis kubricks? Have about $21 bucks? Like Hamegg? Well 'en, get him while the getting's good!

I dunno if Barbie pink is an appropriate colour for Astro, especially on a toaster...

See, loose driving restrictions like THIS are exactly what got Tobio killed.

It's not Astro Boy, but it's Captain Harlock. And it's the ugliest mask of him, ever.

Thanks Fauna, agree- blue is Astroboy's color- now Uran would be perfect for pink- hugs
