    Kenner Action Toy Guides!

    Does anybody remember the Kenner Action Toy Guides that used to come packaged with Kenner toys?? I remember I used to love these things!







    I remember looking at these for hours, imagining how cool the toys would look for real, and picking which I wanted the most. Many a Christmas and Birthday list was cooked up due to the help of these!

    Kenner's were by far my favorite, since they had the biggest variety of toys listed, but many other companies in the late 80's/early 90's did the same thing. Even He-Man had a toy guide on the back of the mini comics!





    I still have a few that I have saved over the years, anyone else have any fond memories of the little guides?

    Hey there, He-Lurker!

    I have a few of these Kenner toy guides that I got with toys as a child. I have the catalogue with Batman and Superman Animated series, which also list the Batman Forever line. I also have one with The Real Ghostbusters, Robocop and Police Academy. Great memories!

    Take Care,
    Darren

    Aw Man, Bone Age. Those were some great toys, but not nearly as awesome as Dino Riders. That's still one of the coolest toy concepts ever, I think.
