trolls

Which one is worse?

Interent trolls or skateboard trolls? Skateboarding trolls on the internet.

troll

Fab Troll

Vintage Troll doll on a skateboard. On sale now at Fab.com. price reduced (?) to $20!

skating-friends1

Skating Friends

It’s like the package says: “Skating Friends.” That’s Abby Cadabby on roller skates and Rosita on a skateboard.

doo

Relp!

A Scooby Doo metal box in the shape of a quarter pipe. Get yours from a Crickefarmer. I still hate Scooby Doo.

LRT from Futurist

This “LRT” vinyl figure is from Futurist. I don’t get the aesthetic that they are going for with this guy and the accompanying shirts and skateboards. It is sort of reminiscent of Fisher Price Little People. Last Re-Tweet? I must not be the target demographic.

monkey

buzz

Travels up to 10 Feet!

That would be accurate if you were talking about me lately… Buzz Lightyear is probably the second most ubiquitous character on a toy skateboard next to ole Bart Simpson, (Not to be confused with Bort Sampson.) If $11.99 is what they were blowing these things out at over at Ross, I’d hate to see what […]

tinkertoy

Tinkertoy Skateboard and Rider

I have no idea what the date is on this set. It’s #191, and still a Questor/Child Guidance company. Playschool bought them in 1985. The packaging on this looks like some sets from the late 70s. The one I have does not actually have enough pieces to build a skateboard or anything else, so I […]
