I miss when Neopets.com wasnt a money-based hog site and it was in its old style. I played one that site for roughly 7 years and I met my now boyfriend there when we were 14.

How about Merlin? It was electronic and played games like tic tac toe.

I used to love my Merlin. I'd still play it if I could find it :)

Reminded me of that "calculator" I had then too. It had a bright yellow plastic back and *asked* how much X plus Y was rather than telling you. Gads, what were those things called? Mr. Something-or-other...
 
Popples and Fraggle Rock!

ETA: And Pete & Pete.

I don't remember the actual Popples toy, but my mother always says the hedgehogs remind her of them when they're in a half ball with their head and front legs poking out.
 
you mean Bopples? I had a bunch of them, you could turn them into a ball, they had a little pouch thing on their butt and you could flip them into themselves![/QUOTE]

You're both wrong--they're called POPPles. :p

YES! Thats what I meant! Thank you. (I can't believe I couldn't remember the name, lol) I use to have a couple of them when I was little, but I think they got lost in the move from VA to PA when I was 6 or 7. I use to carry them around the house with me. They were the cutest little things!

I miss the Sweet Valley High series. My cousin had them, and passed them down to me. I was re-reading them until I turned 18 or so, and my mom snuck them into a garage sale. LOL.

Nutterbutters. They're still around. YUM!!!
 
Nutterbutter are awesome. I ate a bad one about 2 years ago and haven't had once since.

I miss Sky Bars. People in the northeast still have them up there. We don't have Ellios Pizza, Sky Bars, or Maple Candy around here :(
 
I loved the Sweet Valley Twins books too. I still have my cabbage patch doll, got one like the 2nd year they were out. My mom was in Omaha and stood in line for 4 hours to get me one.

My favorite games that I miss are the original nintendo Mario Brothers and The Legend of Zelda, they so rocked.
 
I don't think Mel means nutter butters. I know what she's talking about. They actually look like a real peanut, but they are candy, and the inside is creamy. (Did I get that right Mel?)

Nutter butters, however, are fantabulous cookies!

They still have these, we have some of them on our wii.

Nutter butters ARE shaped like peanuts!

These are a hard candy with peanut butter in them, shaped like peanuts, called Honeycomb Peanuts.

This site has a bunch of "old" candies, including "sky bars".

I remember eating a candy that was like a peanut shape ( 3-D ).. but it was crispy with PB inside... Not too long ago. What the heck was that and where did it come from? Hmmm...

Wow - you so just took me back to my childhood. I am honestly getting too old!
 
That's them Nicole! I "think" that's what Mel is talking about, since she didn't say cookie, but candy.
