Man, that takes me back Rot... Most of the time I could not afford such luxuries in my youth but I remember dreaming of the havoc I could create with each little ad.
I once saved my money up for months and created this huge (from a kids perspective) order from their actual several page catalog they send you of all their products once you buy something from their comic book ad. I waited for weeks and nothing ever came. My dad told me, at the time, it must have gotten lost in the mail. I later found out (as an adult) he never sent the order because he thought it was a waste of money. I was a bit sad to find that out.

I still have my Starfleet Manual that I had ordered from them. I regret not getting the Phasers now...
YES! Mine too...

Hope you got your cash back : )
@Unknown, So horrific!
Wow! I just had a flashback. I have forgotten about this....
@ Unknown, I would have become a fatherless child if that happened to me. :)
