Awesome Skateboard Stacie

Barbie’s sister Stacie riding a skateboard in a McDonalds Happy Meal toy that dates back to 2000. Apparently “Awesome Skateboard Stacie” was a toy on it’s own before it became a downsized Happy Meal toy. I found a 1999 commercial for Awesome Skateboard Stacie, who had two friends that skated too.

Happy Easter

Happy Easter, if you’re into that sort of thing. If not, Happy Care Bears Swift Heart Rabbit on a skateboard from 1984.

Funko Marty McFly ReAction Figure

ReAction stands for retro action figure. Funko is releasing a line of action figures based on nostalgia, including figures like the Terminator, Escape from New York, The Goonies, Pulp Fiction, A Nightmare on Elm Street, and a Back to the Future model with a Marty McFly that looks nothing like Michael J Fox. In fact, […]

Smurf Hardees

The Hardees restaurant equivalent of a Happy Meal box, dating back to 1990. It’s called a Funmeal. Say it over and over again. It makes me think of mealworms. Another rare Smurfette appearance on a skateboard. $25, so yeah… no.

Smurfed from the source

Mouse vs Mouse

Chuck E Cheese squares up against the venerable Mickey Mouse. Mickey Mouse certainly holds the edge in sheer quantity of appearances on a skateboard, but Chuck has the advantage in this presentation. Actually, he kind of looks like a skatepark hipster. That’s a pencil sharpener on the bottom of his skateboard, not a battery pack […]

Lego Club Jr skateboard

Instructions on how to build a pretty weak interpretation of a skateboard, as seen in Lego Club Jr magazine, March/April 2014 edition.

Q-bert on a skateboard

I had a summer job before I went to college working at a Papermate Pens factory on the packaging line. During down time they had us opening up thousands of unsold disposable mechanical pencils that were packaged with promotional Q-bert erasers. I worked there with a friend, and most of the staff were temp workers. […]

Duck, duck, Badeente

Google Translate kind if stumbles over this one, turning “Badeente Skateboarder Quietschentchen Gummiente Plastikente” into “Rubber duck rubber duck plastic duck skateboarders.” So i, uh, wonder if… this guy is related to Tony… Hawk. (Sorry!) – Thanks to David ODK for the tip.
