Flash Screen (1990)

My cousins got this VERY SHORTLY after they came out with it and the first time I spent the night after they got it, we stayed up until almost 12am (which for kids our age was like staying up until 6am) and the whole time we were up we played with this thing and to this day I STILL haven't figured out how this thing works but I know I'd love to get one though. One of the coolest toys of the early 90's lol.

I want to find that in a yard sale

Had one of these. I remember me & my friends would stand in front of the screen and use our fingers to make it look like our wieners were sticking out, lol. Many hours of laughter were had.

I still have this ^_^

i like the flash screen.

i never remember this toy... but just like all the other 90s toys i want it incredibly just so i could figure out how it works!!!
seriously the 90s had the best toys! they always did stuff that made me go "how the hell...?)

Flashscreen my ass! I got this for Christmas once and it worked NOTHING like in the commercial whatsoever. When you took a "flash" at someone, the outline hardly showed up. I was severely disappointed.

I remember this commercial. It's a wonderful idea. I never had it or knew anyone who had it.

I never had one nor did i ever get to play with one. I had totally forgot about this toy. such an amazing device for its time (for a kid at least hah)

MAN! i had 1 of these! it was AWESOME! i remember during hurricane Fran, when our power went out, i played with this thing for like 8 hours....there was nothing else to do. I think i would have played with it all day every day if i didnt have friends!

I remember this toy. My cousin had one and everytime i would go to my grandparents house which was at least once a month. Some of us would get together(cousins) and play with this toy. We loved this toy and we played with it all the time. I remember being blinded by the flash. Whenever we get together now we laugh about some of the funny pictures we made.

Still have it, still works. It's awesome. But yeah, dalmatianlover, the flasher WAS extremely bright, and you have to close your eyes real tight if you're going to stand in front of the screen and get flashed.

oh man i remember the one at the childrens museum in seattle!!! yea i always wanted this!!!

They had a big version of this at the Childrens museum

OMG! I actually had one of those things, and it really worked! The flasher was extremely bright, and it did blind people though.

I still have it. lol I love it

I LOVED flashscreen! It worked best in a perfectly dark room like a bathroom.

lol i really wanted one of these, too!!!

heh..make your own with glow in the dark spray paint a poster to paint on and a camera flash or room light. all it really is blocked light to charge the mat/board/paint.

i totally wanted this when i was younger. oh well.
