Nostalgia (Back in my day)

Late 1987....
Got to laugh, culturally apartheid screwed us, no Public Enemy, DJ Jazzy Jeff and the Fresh Prince, LL Cool J; Eric B and Rakim, Too Short, Ice T, Heavy D, Grandmaster Flash - only the undeniable MJ. We were all white washed.

Biggest joke is we thought songs like Bobby McFerrin's "Don' Worry, Be Happy" came out in the post apartheid 90s!

I had the same thing and also a tank that I painted, you could buy the small paint tins from the toyshop.
Yea, I used to buy the little Humbrol paint tins from a hobby store in Tygervalley. At that stage though I was making Marvel model kits and that sort of thing. I do faintly remember painting the aircraft as well, my dad must have bought the paints for those for me.
 
Went to a local toy shop that deals in retro toys and Lego. They had the following on display and then it hit me, I actually had this set, got it for Xmas mid 80s or so. Probably haven't thought about it in 30odd years or more.
