[moviemaking45]

Where can you buy all that stuff now it's actually pretty cool

[allstar2bein2023]

This is book is awesome! I had a great time reading and being nostalgic.

[ConejoZing]

A scary, enigmatic video game character ... wait, no .. it's ... a severely underpowered yet incredibly expensive car. Just another bloody (vampire pig) pen trick.

[knibscratch]

Sea Monkeys don't wear crowns!!!

[MrFeatheredSerpent]

I remember some of this stuff in the galleria mall's gag shop, back in the early 90's. LOL

[snoopy210190]

bag full of laughs... burn it with fire

[happybro1]

wait..do they actually send you the "items?"

[videomoviedvd]

You know I love this sort of thing

Great Video Trailer

God Bless

[doceigen]

As a side note, the hovercraft I hoped I would get was electrically connected to a battery package. I figured I'd rewire it and extend its range, what do you want!?... I was a kid! But what I got was as shown, but what isn't clear in this video is... the hand held battery package, also contains the motor, which turns the propellor in the craft via a mechanical cable... so extend it?... not a chance.

[doceigen]

When I was young, I ordered EVERY single one of the items shown except for the bald head, the haunting record, or the legs... no thanks. You should have shown the sea monkeys, those actually worked, they hatched, built a civilization, flying space ships, and weapons of mass destruction... sadly, each package sent out to some kid evolving into that exact same pattern, so wiping themselves out within 2 weeks, leaving only a green glowing ring where their water vase used to be... oh well.

[happybro1]

@doceigen did you get like ripped off every time? >:D and have no money left lol,

[doceigen]

@happybro1 It was the excitement of waiting, running to the mailbox, thinking about getting stuff in the mail and ripping open the package that was more important than what I finally got. I once sent for a submarine that you put an alka seltzer type foaming pellets into and it would 'dive and surface' over and over from that pellet... it DIED after about a week, never to dive and surface on its own again... BUT IT WAS THE BEST TOY EVER! Yeah... kids.

[Tenguzame99]

@doceigen I remember having that as well!

[MatticusNicholas]

Glow in the dark cover? Yeah, probably created by nuclear waste.

[FargoMarc]

I had the 100-piece Toy Soldier set at 00:23, what a rip-off! I saved my allowance for weeks too. My mom is still uncovering them in her garden, 35 years later!

[doceigen]

@FargoMarc "My mom is still uncovering them in her garden, 35 years later!" And everyone of those ...a smirk and a tear in her eye, ya know what I mean?

[FargoMarc]

@doceigen Yep, she occasionally will send me a few... :-)

[drsta84]

Did you really think you were going to get a hover craft you could ride in for 5 bucks?

[KyngMegz]

LMFAO!! I am rolling right now!

[hagirl62]

[neversaydie394]

[blaketheawesomedude]

[captmoonbeam]

[kidkosmic]

@captmoonbeam It's in the book!

[Bassmanwcm]

@captmoonbeam exactly!! I wanted one of those so bad and daydreamed about playing in my backyard in it...was never meant to be i guess....

[myndae]

Wonderful Video-clip!!!!

[AstroKedde]

I normally never read books, but i think this one would be fun to read :)

[IzzeVenom]

[UnboxTechnology]

This honestly looks like a cool book!

[kgedelian2000]

[RootSuitMan]

dude that laugh in the middle of the video is so annoying

[xllDinoman21llx]

i want that voice thrower WHERE CAN U GET ONE

[PointB1ank]

@xllDinoman21llx sammee broo

[mranenome]

I've seen and heard the laugh box several times. It does everything you need a portable laugh box to do. I've seen the mystery top once or twice also. It's pretty neat.

[mrhungry4vids]

1:07 i dont know about you but i will be ok with that.

[pinkiepie32]

the hovercraft was probably the best toy



[eluap]

A "glow in the dark book cover"?!!  Honest and for true?

[kidkosmic]

@eluap The cover really does glow in the dark!

[camillerules90210]

i hope this book includes the "magic" weight loss pill that had contained a tapeworm so i guess the pill did work but idk i dont think loosing a few pounds is worth eating a tape worm

[Marika584]

täällä suomessakin katsotaan tätä!!!!!

[Kristal123123]

I am a bird.

[groundbeef98]

lol cool

[Karabinato]

what if i order the book and its not what i expected?

[kidkosmic]

@Karabinato Not knowing is part of the fun!

[MsDeidara1994]

wtf? XD

[paleryder22]

Thank you captain obvious, saving the world from things we already know.

[TheFunnyJohn]

some where in diary of a wimpy kid lol

[InsanityOnABunExtras]

lol

[ElforTheLandstander]

I liked the hovercraft...

[WandaYue]

lol I actually want a few of those XD

[yourleaderDrChaos]

Ah! That's the book that I wanted!

[CartoonSNAP]

Can't wait…already pre-ordered it on Amazon!



[goneutt]

The "ventrillo voice thrower" is a Swazzel, an essential piece of equipment for a Professor of Punch and Judy.

As an Amazon Marketplace Dealer, I hope you didn't get your hopes up too high. This type of novelty book has a high bomb rate.

[kidkosmic]

@goneutt Thanks for the view and info. I'm not the author, but I heard the publisher of Mail-Order Mysteries is already looking at a second printing of this book. Kirk's first book on S.S. Adams pranks sold very well for an indie pub.

[zenzmurfy]

Finally some answers! :)
