Now I'm excited as a toy collector. I have drawn my own characters in Memphis Legends and some other bootlegs, but that's not where my background lies....it's in cartooning which is something I grew up doing

I remember being 4 years old being able to draw Yogi Bear, Fred Flintstone, Quick Draw McGraw and the rest. I remember drawing them and cutting them out....having my own "action figures"...I remember drawing the entire Laff-A-Lympics & cutting them out so I could play along!

As a toy nerd, I'm pumped!!!

Flinstones toys-Yabba Dabba Do!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I am a big Flintstones fan. I was working at Toys R Us when the movie came out and was able to get all the toys that they made from the movie. I have a lot of toys in my collection, and the Flinstones movie figures are some of my favorites. Can't wait to see what McFarland can do with the gang from Bedrock.

As long as there is a Blue Falcon and Dyno-Mutt in that set I will be happy. Also the Frankenstones would be nice as well!

Hanna-Barbera Boxed Set -- Fred Flintstone Cruiser



Kinda disappointed though. I love Fred, Hong Kong and QDM, but not really psyched about Tom & Jerry. I know they had some stints with HB, but I associate them more with MGM.

When I think HB, I think Flintstones, Yogi Bear, Scooby Doo, Quick Draw McGraw, Grape Ape, etc. Hopefully they'll stick to these.
