Epic Win: KITT Dashboard Toy

Feb. 24, 2010

Submitted by Anthony A, who rides at night.

More awesome than I can begin to describe. I was in awe that it had actual working turn signals. I was five at the time, but whatever. I used to sit at the kitchen table with mine, look out the sliding glass door, and pretend I was driving through the back yard. Props to Actiontoys.com for the only pic I could find of it too.

Let’s all remember “The Hoff” from his glory days on Knight Rider and the unintentionally hilarious Hooked on a Feeling, and pretend to forget that time he got hooked on a burger.

Epic Win: Terminator

Feb. 24, 2010

Submitted by Jeff G, who pumps iron with Linda Hamilton.

A dramatization of future Arnold meeting Terminator-era Arnold.

Future Arnold: Yo.

Terminator Arnold: Who? What? Me?

FA: Someday you will rule California. You will be the Governator.

TA: Impossible. I already decided I would forgo politics for a career in body building.

FA: We’ll see what Maria has to say about that.

TA: Who’s Maria?

FA: Mark my words. You’ll be baaaaaack.

Epic Win: The Original MTV VJs

Feb. 23, 2010

Once Upon A Win

Submitted by C Wood, up to no good.

The hair, the clothes, the attitude – so awesome! Also: all still in style. Too bad MTV forgot about playing actual videos. These days a VJ would have to be 16 and pregnant to get on the air.

Epic Win: Macarena

Feb. 23, 2010

Submitted by Dann S, we all say he’s buena.

I know many of you out there remember this song. We used to dance this almost everyday and would not get tired of it. We used to hear it at parties of all ages. Memories… ;)

Happy earworm Tuesday! I dare anyone to use this as the ring on their cellphone and let it go off during a meeting. Takers?

Epic Win: Sweet Secrets

Feb. 22, 2010

Submitted by Lauren and Libby, who secretly hate secrets.

Making makeup look like a toy was a genius move by Galoob. Hook ‘em early, ply them with lip gloss later.

Ed note: I loved these beyond comprehension. They were like transformers, but fed my twee vanity.
