Anyhow, here are a few earlier threads that deal with this, for those who haven't seen them... Or for those who read them 17 or 25 years ago, and wanted to re-live them!

By the way, I had an Evel Knievel doll (plus motorbike) when I was a kid. Of course, my Evel Knievel doll would jump over my toy cars. Man, that was pretty cool! I had a Six Million Dollar Man doll too... His "bionic eye" was amazing at the time... Though looking back, it was just a lens stuck in his head (the same kind you get through those door peep-holes)... So instead of a peep-hole in a door, it was a peep-hole stuck in a doll's head. I guess if you can put a peep-hole in a doll's head and call it a "bionic eye" - well, that's pretty good marketing!
