If that is what I think it is, it’s a rare bird. (Not the draggie-talkie, the prior owner.)
I saw something similar that another company made not that long ago--If I played lap steel--those would look fun.
I wonder if this was the precursor to Tiger Beat magazine (which a quick Google search shows is actually still in circulation!).
on the Batman theme how about this. I remember a friend of my brother had a model of this car and I never knew what it was but it was cool
Heh, it's like an analog calculator, or a beginners slide rule. I want one!
Pencil cases!

Do they still make this?
Gonna do a little name drop regarding that, cuz it's worth it
. Back around 2004, Pete Steele was helping my band out (my guitarist was friends with him from HS or something). Anyhow, he was a super cool dude, with an interesting sense of humor. I had to go pick up something from his house once and he told me that if he didn't answer the door to just wait, cuz he was jumping in the shower. I said jokingly, "Uhhh... do I have to be worried about coming over, like are you going to be naked or something?" and he responded immediately, in a dead pan voice, "As long as you're not wearing High Karate or Canoe, you're safe." Might not sound as funny here, but the timing and delivery were awesome. I miss that guy. He really was an awesome human being. His door was always open to everyone.

I literally laughed out loud...
