They need to reinvent this thing with a computer chip in it. Then it will sell again.

The one I most remember was Queen Elizabeth’s coronation

I bought one of these for my grandson as a stocking stuffer at Christmas- I bought him one with several reels of animals since he really likes all sorts of critters and learning about them. He checked it all out and hasn’t touched it since; it just can’t compete with his video games. I wondered then how popular they are with today’s kids.

The ‘Peanuts’ discs were fantastic. I knew all the plots from reading the strips compiled into paperback books but the statues (?) and sets used for the 3-D reels were amazing. Such detail. Wonder where those props are now.

I purchased one for my son 2 years ago when he was 5 hoping he would get the same enjoyment out of I did when I was a kid. He didn’t. Oh, he’s played with it, but not even close to the amount of time I did so many years ago. They just have too many other cool toys today to play with, not to mention video games.

My favorite was 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea, and the giant octopus.
