Kids Toys (Bigfoot, Stomper, Skyjacker)

[gcam]

So, I have the day off today, and I'm playing Hotwheels Monster Trucks with my kid (he's 4), and he asks me what my favorite monster truck was when I was a kid. Then the reminiscing started.

Remember this stuff?

I showed these clips to my kid, and he went nuts over them! Is there an equivalent around today? I haven't found any on the web, or searching ToysRUs.

I remember Skyjacker was making toy trucks for a while, but I don't know where to find them.

Any other dads Christmas shopping?

isnt it kinda ironic how when we were kids we played wit hthe toy versions... now we drive them as adults... then again, did we really grow up?

I personally blame Bob Chandler and Bigfoot for the predicaments I find myself in these days....
