About this list:

As much as I'd have loved to be a Flower Child, I will argue to this day that pop culture has never been quite as fantastic as in the '80s. Enjoy this trip down memory lane and maybe you'll find some treasures to bring back in to your life.

Description

I must confess, I have a Jem and the Holograms Junk Food tee tucked away in my T-shirt drawer. I LOVED this TV series and always wanted to join the girls' rock band. Rock on in this soft cotton tee.

My Little Pony 4 Pack Pony Set - Hasbro

First to recommend

Description

I once gave my My Little Pony a haircut and it just wasn't the same. Then Hasbro invented a pony whose hair would "grow" when you tugged at it, then snap back in. I can't explain it, they were just so fun.
