    		 If you didn't like Micro Machines, see a shrink... there was probably something seriously wrong with you.

    They were awesome, and so were their playsets. Funny how they were more expensive than Hot Wheels, but like 1/4 of the scale. I had these little light-up ones. You pressed the top of them and their headlights lit up. Cool, I know.

    I remember once I was in Target, and they had a range of Micro Machines boys' clothing. There were sweaters that had a little plastic bubble on them with a Micro Machine inside. I was a little shit, so I popped open one of the bubbles and stole the Micro Machine. I don't feel too bad, cos surely they had to realise that kids were gonna do that.

    No way.
    Like smaller matchbox cars. The playsets were totally awesome. I had the oil can that turned into a carwash, and the car battery that turned into a city. I luff them so hard.

    		 Oh man, I LOVED them. They had cars, ships, jets, everything. They also branched out into some cool Star Wars Micro Machines.

    		 I Liked Micro Machines. I Had a Bunch Of Cars,Playsets and The Van That Turns Into A Playset(I Just Found It At A Thrift Shop Nearby My House A Few Months Back and It Was Only $3). I Miss My Other Micro Machines, I Wish I Kept Them. So Many Great Memories. :cry:

    		 Micro Machines were pretty cool. I had a couple of the mini playsets (one was a carwash type) and a few of the micros. Here are some very good Micro Machine websites.

    This one shows you all the playsets and ect of the past:

    And no, I don't feel like going through all those in the first link, just to try to find one I had. At least not right now.

    		 I loved Micro Machines. One thing I had from Micro Machines was Super Van City. Remember those Micro Machine commercials with John Moschitta Jr (that guy that can talk really fast)? I wonder whatever happened to him.
