At the risk of provoking reminiscence, let me ask: was there ever a cooler toy than the Strange Change Time Machine? Five bucks will get you one on e-bay, if you hurry. The Strange Change Machine was much cooler than Creepy Crawlers (which were also cool, but involved more overhead). It came with a prehistoric landscape (you could fill the pond with water, which would get all scuzzy after a while), and it got hotter'n a two dollar pistol. If I recall rightly you could mash plastic soldiers into the monsters that came with it, for an interesting effect-- the soldiers weren't ever really the same after, though. (Via BoingBoing.)
