After looking around the avatars I found some familiar faces I haven't seen in years...

Beavis and Butthead, Rocko's Modern Life, The Tick, Robin Hood, Speed Racer, Retro McDonalds, Ren and Stimpy, EARTHWORM JIM... These are all things I grew up with....

.. I'm feeling old now.

So, anyone else get any flashback trips looking through the avatars?

Hehe, I first thought that you meant that you looked through the avatars of Royal members on the main site. I was trying to figure out whp was who. Laughing

I actually haven't looked through the avatars available. I've always just picked the PBB ones.

I may be only 21, but yes, I got a bit of nostalgia going through the avatars, too.

Swat Kats? You're going to get that awesomely wicked guitar lick in the intro stuck in my head now.

I once had a dream where the Swat Kats were in it. It was interesting... They flew out of a construction site behind the apartment I was living in at the time, but the construction was dreamed.

And I am also 21.

Hail to the year of the Rabbit! XD

When I saw a Tick avatar, I was blown away. I remember being little, watching it on Comedy Central. "SPOOOOOOOOOOON!!!!"

GAH. Now I remember when Pogs were cool. My brother had a Tick slammer that we got from a cereal box mail-in thing.

I grew up on the old Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog series... ^^ Back when Jaleel White did the voice of Sonic. There's a trip.. I haven't heard "RoButtnik" in years. And my brother-in-law found a VHS of a couple episodes I clearly remember watching on TV! XD

Very Happy Heh, I have a couple of old Sonic episodes on VHS, too....I'll have to go dig those out.
Swat Cats and Reboot were probably my favorite series back in the day, along with one that I'm not sure many remember: Road Rovers?

Reboot? Oh, that was a good one. But Road Rovers isn't ringing a bell...

I've been a Furry fan since I was little... XD I even remember having a vivid dream where I was in the Disney version of Robin Hood... I was donating everything I had on me at the time to Friar Tuck, when the Sherrif came by. He even addressed me by name! The voices were accurate as well. That was only a few years ago, though.

This might help: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aBCD2ZLyL0E
It was generally more about the comedy than the action.

And Robin Hood is something else that I haven't seen anything of in a while....I'm surprised that Disney hasn't made any similar ventures recently.

Little wonder. Marine Boy was I think the first anime broadcasted by the BBC, in the late 1960's and Battle of the Planets in the mid/late 70's.
The latter may be better know as Gattcha Man/force.

Gattcha Man/force rings a bell but no memory... must have seen a commercial on it.
