They didn't really have anything close to the cool s**t kids had in the golden age of the 70s-80s. Now it looks they finally have the edge in technological gimmickry. I see stuff like that dino and those tiny helicopters that fly and imagine what it would be like to have that stuff at 8 years old. I imagine it's all relative since kids are used to technology nowadays and our amazement at shooting fists is about equal to theirs at a goddamn walking dinosaur. Although we had Dino Riders 20 years ago, so it ain't all that. I've felt sorry for kids growing up for the past 15 years or so.
