Hi Michael,

When I was a kid, I remember I had an Evel Knievel "action figure". With motorbike! And jump!

You could pull the cord, and Evel Knievel on his motorbike would zip up the jump and leap over my matchbox cars.

Wow. Talk about cool.

My brother had an "action figure" named Pulsar. He had a clear chest, in which you could see his heart and lungs. You pressed his back, and you could see his heart pump, his lungs inflate, and his blood flow!

I'm not exactly sure what kind of "super powers" he might have had. Maybe it was to try to encourage kids to become medical doctors. (Is that the real reason moms bought it for their kids???? Oh well, didn't work on me.)

Ah, memories.... They just don't make toys like they used to. ;)

Cheers,

Dien

P.S. Here is Pulsar - the man who's not afraid to let you know what's in his heart,

lungs, and blood vessels.
