#22. Oh Danielson hahahahah #56. Classic battles :worship2: regular and post season Transformers, Air Jordan (edit not on list?):shead:
I had a pair of LA Gear shoes!! Parachute paints!! Even finding little rocks in stonewashed jeans! He-Man was awesome. GI Joe and Transformers were always cool to watch. I've got GI Joe season 1 on dvd hehehe
Good God that brings back memories!! I still say the 80's were the very best decade ever! You knew you had hit bigtime when you had a pair of Sergio Valente jeans, a polo shirt with the collar turned up, a Member's Only jacket, and a brand new pair of LA Gear's!! The 80's were my 10 year old to 19 year old decade...ahhh great times!
my wife said oh yeah to pretty much all of it and is now singing bon jovi in her head now and it was 2 pair of scruchy socks :shrug:
I think mine was a rambo big wheel too. black, with some camo stickers, had an ammo box for storage in the back.
Ahhh you big wheel guys don't know anything. You guys had re-makes, I got my original big wheel (the orange, yellow, and blue one with the flag) back in 1974. Having a big wheel made you cool but you were the shizz if you had a Big Green Machine! One kid in my neighborhood had one and he would pull up to all of us on our big wheels and it was like a Ferrari pulling up to a bunch of Toyotas!
what ever i had a green machine at my grandparents that was for all the grand kids and my Dukes of Hazard big wheel was at home. which was replaced with the A-Team Big wheel
