Thing of the Day (1)

[Gagh]

I've decided to take over from Wacky. My 'Thing of the Day' will literally be that: a thing.


Moster Mansion is a really forgettable board game from the mid 80's. It involved you escaping a 'mansion' (the board). A rubber squeaky Frankenstein stalked your little plastic character. The Frankenstein had little hands that clipped on your character's head so he would be 'crushed to death'.

Even as a kid, I found it shit, but I guess it has kitsch value, if nothing else.

IF YOU ARE OVER 14 AND YOU PLAY THIS GAME THEN YOU DIE A HORRIBLE DEATH.

 

[Gagh]

YOU MOCK SIR. IT WAS VERY SCARY!

 

[The Tomtrek]

Who's the guy in the top hat? Is that Mr. Hyde or something?

 

[CaptainWacky]

It's Timmy Mallett.

 

[Gagh]

Yes it is! I think it may be the John Barrymore Mr Hyde from the 1920's.

 

[Gagh]

Or the French one?

I never saw that game before.. and feel I would have had to be stoned to play it..

 

[Gagh]

I was trying to find a piccy of the bad Frankenstein - to no avail.

 

[Gagh]

Few pix. Ah the memories are coming back..

I am sure it was very scary..

 

[CaptainWacky]

Wow. They really didn't go to much effort at all to make it look like a mansion.

 

[Gagh]

I am sure it was very scary..

Told you it was crappy

 

[EV1L1]

Told you it was crappy

No, really.. I woulda had nightmares that my head would get crushed...

The only thing that can cure this IS THE FANTASTIC FOUR'S 'THE THING' ATTEMPTING TO DO THE SNOOPY DANCE ON A GREASY SURFACE TO THE TUNE OF "YELLOW POLKA DOT BIKINI".

I dunno.. I just found it..

 

[CaptainWacky]

I never even played Toejam and Earl...I don't even know if that thing is from Toejam and Earl...I can't stop saying "Toejam and Earl"...
