Pogs

I think I played a few times when I was little but never was a collector. Chinese Jump Rope and Truth or Dare were my games when I was little.
 
I used to collect a lot of pogs. I don't know what happened to them, though. I think they got thrown out when we moved a few years back.
 
Wow, I'd forgotten about these. I had a lot of pogs & slammers (convinently stored in a case made just for pogs), we threw them out (goodwill perhapes) after everyone got over them and stopped playing... I'd liked the ones with skulls and 8-balls on them at the time. Someone stole my Grim Reaper slammer. I'd probably have kept that one... it was the coolest of any of the pog slammers I'd seen...
 
We didn't have pogs here, instead we had Tazos through-out the nineties to around 2002, every so often, they make more. They came in a certain brand of chips; Smith's I believe; and they seemed to always be having special editions or promotions. I think I've still got a tonne of them in a showbox somewhere...
 
oh i have them! i dunno where i saved them, though..I was born in early 1990 but in here, it's 'in' in early 2000.
 
i dont think i had any, but then my dad didnt waste money on stuff that would just end up in the garbage the next week
 
i had tons of them plus mostly from the looney tunes i played alot with it on school,

i still remember when i was around 7 years where we all got a few of those things from
our teacher, it was fun untill those things got forbidden on school because some moron accedently killed itself by eating a bag of chips where they could be found in and accedently ate one and died of a lack of air.

btw in dutch they are called FLIPPO'S for the dutch guys around.
 
I miss pogs! My favorites were the Power Rangers ones :)

They were mine too, cause back then I was a real Power Rangers fangirl. Everyone else seemed to like then as well... I can remember my neighbour Joe celebrating like he won the lottery when he won one off me. O:
 
When I go on holiday to Portugal ever year, they seem to have a new set of Pokémon Tazos to collect each time, and are given out in 'Chipicao' cake packets. Luckily, I love the cakes themselves, and having come back from holiday only last week, I still have about 5 more to get through. This years set are called 'Pokémon Roks' (or Rooks - can't understand the symbol!), and are to celebrate the release of the DP games, so they must have been able to be collected for some time now. Among the ones I've just got are Palkia, Manaphy, Mantine/Tyke etc. I still love 'em, even if I don't play with them!
 
I have a bunch of them and crazy bones. For pogs you would put them in a pile face down, and throw a "slammer" at them. Whichever ones turned face up you kept. You could also try to flip one over by taking the slammer and pushing down on the edge of the pog to flip it right side up with the slammer, this was easier said than done. The craze didnt last long, but had alot of cool pog varieties. Crazy Bones are still around though. I also had the pog maker, and made a few of my own.
