Weird. My video stops loading at about one minute, and if I try playing it, whatever's loaded starts to be erased. (Like I lose two seconds of loaded video every second I watch.)

Edit: Saw the other links, same problem there. (Firefox browser and... I honestly have no idea what my OS is, I'm using Windows XP if that means anything.)
Same here, it's been like that for all the video's on the escapist since last thursday for me. I can get them to play but the scroll bar thing for them is messed up.
Weird. Yeah, I just tried letting mine go and it played fine...

(And for the record, I got all but the last one right on the 90's toy quiz, and got them all right on my second go-round for the 80's toys *and am currently 10th on the leaderboard!* and my favorite toy was... well, I don't remember any in particular except for this little toy rabbit I've always loved.)

100% on both quizzes. I'm a little surprised that I did so well on the really old quiz, I guess it comes from playing with all of my older siblings' stuff.

Man I remember all of those commercials, and funny thing is, I never had any of those products (from the old toy quiz). I don't think I wanted any of them either, I just remember playing with some of my friend's toys. I was half expecting Furby to appear... that think creeped me out to no end.

Now to try the second one!

EDIT: Wow I had problems with the second one, no clue on what half of them were. I owned #2 :) nothing like melting liquid plastic together and putting them on your oldest sister while she slept and waited with your other sisters for her to wake up. The last 3 or so I knew what they were without seeing the questions but very clueless on the older ones.

Wierd, the scroll bar keeps vanishing the second it starts to load but the little ball thing keeps moving though.

Hmm. Bit US-centric, half of them never made it over here. Still, 80% on the 90s thing and 70% on the 80s.
Well, I'm American. To be fair, I did warn you that this was completely US-based.
Horrific sleep deprivation = me not reading things properly. Apologies etc.

My favourite toy in the nineties is still the only thing besides my PC that can keep me occupied all day:

Lego! Yes, this was a full-size house built a couple of months ago in the UK.

80% on both, but then, we have old christmas specials from the 80's and 90's on tape, complete with commercials.

100% on the 90's toys, 70% on the 80's. Had to guess some since I'm British and have never seen some of them, like those weird boxing glove things.

My favourite toys in the 90's were probably My Little Pony, Fuzzy Felt and Lego.

Had issues with the video only loading 50% of the time, but I got an 80% just out of brand-name recognition. XD

I think I still have my [Name of Really Old Toy Quiz Answer #10] lying around somewhere. Loved the Fantastic Four reference in that one, too.

I can't believe I aced both quizzes in one try. Go me! I had to laugh when Mr. Bucket's name had to be bleeped out, you know dirty mind and all that.;) I was a Transformers kid and I still am. G1, Alternators, TF Universe I love 'em all...with the exception of the BayFormers. Those things suck.

So I guess I am officially really old because I recognized a lot more of the "really" old ones than the "old" ones.

But the big toys for me were Star Wars, He-Man, and GI Joe in particular.

10/10 on both. Some of the questions I didn't even look at the video. I just knew out of the choices which it would be.

I can't believe there actually was a commercial for D&D's Dark Tower. Do you know how much that game goes for on ebay? Still have my tower and it works!

God I feel old. I remember the commercials for every single one of those (especially the older ones). Heck I remember selling my Monchichi... ouch.
