who remembersPresto Magix?
I loved these things!
My mom would always let me get one when
we went to the supermarket
They came in a little pack
which included a sheet with an illustrated background
to rub your decal on.
The decals were like the material of temporary tattoos,
and when you rubbed with a pencil over the back of the sheet,
they would adhere to the surface of the page
You make characters appear wherever the hell you wanted them to
on the provided canvas.
I would also use them on my note books,
bedroom door decorations.. wherever!
I still had them all over my door - right up until I moved out
My mom took the door down and re-finished it
and turned my room into a guest room
do you believe that shit??
Those were classic!!! - She obviously doesn't know what good is...

I missed them. This is the first time I have seen them. We were too busy having the kids working at the still for stuff like that.
ReplyDeleteThat would have KILLED me.
ReplyDeleteI loved these! Go figure.
ReplyDeleteI didn't ever have these, but the first picture remonds me I had a Huckleberry Hound dog bank instead of a piggy bank!
ReplyDeleteSweet. Except Hanna Barara cartoons suck
ReplyDeleteI was disappointed in the low quality. I wish Doug Henning would of made a commercial set. With unicorns and such.
ReplyDeleteI LOVED THESES!!! But I was too impatient and wouldn't rub them properly. Most of them that I did didn't have heads
ReplyDeleteNever heard of that stuff but my pop would have whipped my ass for puttin stuff like that on my door.
ReplyDeleteLast time I saw those things was at a party back in 81....yea this one guy was giving them out with instructions to eat um and wait....well I don't remember the rest but the cops were really nice after they got my down off the water tower and gave me a blanket because it was Feb. and without clothing it was really cold!
ReplyDeleteBreonitron.....
wow! i loved those! how do you remember this stuff???? I use your blog as a memory to my childhood! Wonder if you can still buy them? My kids would look at them and say "thats gay, boring and stupid" and go jump back on the computer.
