Oh Carrez, you remind me ... I'd try and steal the prototype Once upon a Zombie dolls! The Pocahontus, the Tinkerbell, ones that never came out, and try to get my damn hands on Alice :mad:

oh man did Alice never come out after all? D: I never collected OuaZ but I remember there was a lot of talk about her back in the day.
Oh...
Body Shop: buy big bottles of my fave perfume oils, before it all changed, late 80s early 90s were the best times for me!
Attend a Wimpy bar in my home town, also visit the mall when it used to have a fountain, both gone now. memories of going to Wimpy after buying my Grooming Parlour lol
I would definitely go back to the 90s and get some Sega Saturn games that I was only able to play the only demos of when I was a kid, such as Panzer Dragoon Saga and Baku Baku Animal. I'd also pick up a whole bunch of blank tapes with interesting colours and designs on them - there are some really gorgeous Axia tapes out there but they're like hen's teeth! Oh, and Kitty In My Pocket. Those little leaflets showing off the other kitties you could get were the bane of my childhood - don't show the kids the Unobtainium!!!
Friends, has anyone thought about the practicalities of getting the things you want in this hypothetical situation?SpoilerFirst thing I can think of is what happens if you travel back in time to 1983 with a smart phone and a vape to take pictures?
Your clothes stand out, you use words that're from our time? You could probably stick out like a sore thumb, but if you go even further you might land in a place where foreigners cannot get in or not, leading to horrible things.
Plus with stores of the 1980's/1990's you can get a general idea of what's there so you don't have to guess where to find one, with medieval Europe you'd have to research where to find something then deal with the repercussions like the plague and arrows.
And getting the mail order ponies wouldn't be a guaranteed thing, you'd need an address, clip off the horseshoe points, mail it in, wait then get it.
There'd be other ways of definitely getting them, but they're unethical, such as nicking it off a child or going into the factory, sneaking in the packaging area and grabbing them, resulting in an extra being made or someone else missing out on them.
But with this, you'd have to track down which mail order was made at which factory, at what time, the building layout, safety precautions, blending in or who got them, how to get the item from them, ect.
I know it's a fantasy and all but even then, there must be some things that need consideration.

It's ... it's a fantasy :pout: I put in the 'assuming that you had the right currency' as an indication that time travel headaches like clothing, settings, etc. etc. etc. do not apply. It's a fun exercise to make you think about stuff you missed either from childhood or from more recent times, or a nostalgic think-back to places and times you will never revisit again.
