Mattel Tommy Burst TV commercial 1960s!

[ConservativeStatement]

Imagine this being on TV today?

[Mastador1]

Back in the day when boys were allowed to be boys and toys were something that got them to use their imaginations and were fun too! Now the want boys to be neutered drones that are glued to a computer screen.

[Slump Tester]

That’s Otis Campbell from Mayberry!

[kaehurowing]

I had those!

[Nifster]

nope but I do remember that toy....made great sounds

[Delta 21]

I want one!

[ConservativeStatement]

Nice catch. I didn’t notice that the first time.

[headstamp 2]

I had one like this with the red muzzle tube that used to “rattle” when you pulled the trigger.

And of course all this made me a mass murderer.

[quietly desperate]

I had a Johnny Seven. Great fun.

[Fai Mao]

“And of course all this made me a mass murderer.”

I thought it was racist Sunday-School teacher that made you the mass murderer. The toy gun just help you refine the skills.

S/O

I had the James Bond 007 Attache Case. It had it’s own booby trap.

It was cool.

MYRON: That kid's going to need some serious therapy.
HOWARD: Oh, don't say that.
MYRON: Mm-hmm. I know what I'm talking about. See, I never forgave my father. One Christmas, I wanted this one special toy: Johnny Seven O.M.A. Gun. You remember those?
HOWARD: No.
MYRON: I still remember the commercial. Two kids playing out in the backyard:
'Johnny to Peter. Enemy sighted.'
'Roger there! Open fire!'
Johnny would whip out his Johnny Seven O.M.A. One-Man-Army Gun. Seven guns in one!
HOWARD: Huh.
MYRON: [Chuckling] Thing looked like a blast. Of course for my old man, Christmas was just another opportunity to let me down. I never did get that Johnny Seven O.M.A.
HOWARD: Sorry to hear that.
MYRON: It don't mean nothing.

Holy God I USE TO HAVE THIS! I can’t believe it!!!! Matter of fact I was telling someone about this last year, how I use to run around Bayside Queens in the 1960s with a silver cap gun that looked as real as it gets while wearing a Batman costume and I would be “shooting” people while they laughed. The Batman “cowl” use to fall over my eyes and I couldn’t see where I was going and would run into people. I think I was like 5 years old. Oh forget it, if that happened today I would have been shot for real. It just goes to show how successful liberals have been in bringing forth a horrific image to the 2nd amendment.

[Moonman62]

These days boys can get automatic airsoft guns. There’s a couple of BB guns that can also shoot automatic. The difference is you won’t see them advertised on TV.

[ConservativeStatement]

Awesome!

[GrandJediMasterYoda]

Remember the "Whee-lo" I use to be obsessed with this thing...

[ConservativeStatement]

I was born in 1963. Did I miss the cut?

[ClearCase_guy]

I fail to see how such a device could be used to fight crime or repel a communist invasion.
