Stan Posted May 10, 2015 Share Posted May 10, 2015 (edited) Get ready to remember your dreams. This set is godly level elite with barely any damage, other than some minor wear to the box, and some wear to the tops of two of the fins, but it has replacements and if you're careful it won't matter anyway. SOLD FOR COLLECTIBLE VALUE ONLY. I suggest you put them in a display of some sort. Hard to find these these days. $200 shipped with insurance and tracking.

Machine Posted May 10, 2015 Share Posted May 10, 2015 I would love to have a set of these. We use to take the neighbors set and throw them underhand at the side of the garage. They stuck extremely well into the building. Oh....good memories!!!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The one that's hardest to find has a child playing Jarts on the box as well, you can see with this one here they have a clear WARNING right on the box and no more kid picture.

Retro-Z Posted May 12, 2015 Share Posted May 12, 2015 Man those look like incredibly dangerous fun. They were!!! My family had a set of these when I was a kid. Totally awesome. Oddly enough, I never really thought about how dangerous they could be, until someone else mentioned it not too long ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bodyshots Posted May 13, 2015 Share Posted May 13, 2015 I had such a nice collection of lawn darts previous to my house fire. Enough to get 3 separate games happening. I'd insist the games end after too many drinks were consumed. I'm huge into outdoor games such as this. The plastic tipped darts are junk and never stick nice. Its been so hard to obtain more of these lately. Not even a single dart. (because of legalities) I think the most I ever paid for a set was 5 bucks at a garage sale. I always see ads on Craigslist from Spokane Washington, but no one has been willing to ship out of state. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SIO2 Posted May 15, 2015 Share Posted May 15, 2015 (edited) Man those look like incredibly dangerous fun.That is the type of fun stuff we used to do in the good old days. Not any more. I went looking for model cement in the toy isle of W world. Didn't have it. Duh, kids can't have dangerous stuff like non edible glue. What was I thinking.

Bodyshots Posted May 15, 2015 Share Posted May 15, 2015 Another dangerous toy I had back in the day that I obsoletely loved… FOR THE LIFE OF ME I CANT REMEMBER THE NAME!! I'll explain it and perhaps someone else knows? It was a rocket that would go 100-150 in the air. It had a red translucent top and a solid white base. Thick plastic. The top was a little rounded. You would fill it with some water, not completely full, I can't remember but perhaps half full of water. It had some kind of side stick on the base that the rocket attached to, to pressurize it. You'd pump it up, similar to a bicycle pump. The more pressure you could put in , the higher it would sail. I've searched ebay, not knowing the name, and found a lot of rocket kits, not even closely related to what I had. This is going back over 40 years now. Does this ring a bell with anyone? If I actually saw a picture, or something closely related, I am sure the memories would flood back in. Keep in mind I was about 4 years old at this time. The danger with this item was with the type of pressure it held, and given that it would go 100 feet in the air, imagine if it let go while you were over top of it in the pressurizing process. I'd absolutely LOVE to get one of these again… Anyone? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+madman Posted May 15, 2015 Share Posted May 15, 2015 Bodyshots, those were water rockets. I had a couple. One tiny red one that was the best, another one that was like a 2 or 3 stage rocket. Looked cool but didn't go as high as the tiny red one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SIO2 Posted May 15, 2015 Share Posted May 15, 2015 Yep, I had a few water rockets until one landed on mom's car. Here you go Bodyshots - different color is all. http://www.ebay.com/itm/Toysmith-Deluxe-Water-Rocket-Set-/371236748711?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item566f6f3da7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
