* The TVTA time machine Mk II does not currently work. The last time it did was in June 1994 when TVTA successfully made a return trip to 12th century Venus. Feel free to jiggle around with a screwdriver and duct tape and you may get it working again!
That ladybug telephone is the cutest thing!

Great adds, especially the ice lollies! The incredible Hulk lolly must’ve been fun LOL! I’m sure I’ve still got that issue of Starburst somewhere. Those old issues were fantastic, always full of great pictures 🙂

I can get easily nostalgic looking at late 70s and 80s ice lolly ads! I also remember Star Wars lollies, Space Rockets, Screwballs (turn them upside down to make Daleks!) Mini Milks, and these skateboard ones – I think they came with a free collectors card. Also recall that the wooden sticks often had jokes printed on them.

Mini Milks, yes, we had those with the jokes on the sticks LOL. These old adds are always great fun to look back on, bring back many happy memories 🙂
