Anyone remember these stickers from back in the 80s. Down to the local sweet shop to buy some packs etc Great book out on amazon now with all 5 series pictured. Nice quality hard cover book. Brought back loads of memories for me as you flick through it. Hilarious and to think it was the sort of thing to get banned in schools back in the 80s!!! ha ha ha

Bad memories, I was doing swapsies with GPK's seconds when I got hit in the head by a leather football, a Fanta yo-yo then hit me in the nuts. The final blow was a stray conker to the left knee. There I fell.

I vaguely remember the tug on my hand, the shout of "SCRAMBLE', the sky turning a multitude of colour and it raining my collection as the hordes came running.

Didn’t have the money to buy owt as a kid and never had the luxury of pocket money so all I collected was scrap bikes and plenty of scars.

Lump of coal and a carrot for xmas :) I never kept hold of anything or really collected, only GPK but this was back in 86, the ones we had (UK Minis) are no good anyway for value, only Adam and Nick hold the value.

Those newer pinball ones they put out with a re-release of the older series and I think desirable for some people in their game room.

Oh I don't even remember these, I was big on that cartoon as well. You kept all those loose? Maybe worth a bit more than stuck to a book.
