This is a link post Vintage Innovations catalogue from 1987 I made this!
Hello my little cocks and chicks,

I came across this the other day and thought it was worth scanning in. Basically, this is the IWOOT / ThisIsWhyI'mBroke of its day and yes, I want everything in it.

Not entirely sure the 18mph claim is valid. Do remember getting it stuck under a few cars though.

This is a normal post I never had Omnibot
but I did have the mid-range one, Verbot. You controlled it by recording your voice saying the command you wanted it to do, and it was fucking useless. I also went through loads of those 1 million dollar pens, despite the price tag, could I prevent myself from losing them? No.

edit: OMG, the travel sickness wrist bands, I knew I hadn't imagined those. Yeah, you could buy them, OR you could simply press your fingers into your wrist now that you've figured out that this is all that the wrist band does.

This is a normal post Wow!
We had the ironing board thingy (good for burning your forearms quite well), the Datacard, the embossing press and I still have the metal detector! If I told you all I wanted was the Rabbit multiplier, would you believe me?
