What scares me is, I know exactly what you are talking about... :eek:

And I am only just 40+... :o

We used to sit at home, and colour in the cards with a pencil, then go to the computer sciences lab at the Adelaide Uni, and print our pictures... those were the days...

One of the reasons I've never owned a wedding ring.

(and the fact that no one in their right mind would marry me!)

I remember them, but I don't think they were the same photos. And even though I'm working my way from the start through this thread again, it might be just a while before I find them!

I've never head of a Kinder Surprise being described as a "Fictional weapons from a role-playing game" before. Let's face it, the "surprise" is not much of a surprise at all. It's not as if you would open any random 4 and get an invitation to the Playboy mansion, Megan Gale's phone number, a small nuclear bomb and a vial of Zyklon-B is it? You know it's going to be crappy plastic toys all the way......

Actually, there is something worse:

Living in the US, and having the ban brigade tell you you can't have said kinder surprise.
