That was back then. We did not have everything, but there’s always one kid who had it. It could be Lego, Transformers, or Atari. We had to physically go to that kid’s house to play with it.
The picture reminds me of Spirograph, but it’s not as it contains straight lines and angles at the outer edge that cannot be produced.
Yep… it was somewhat like a neighborhood ‘share-a-thon’…. as long as you did not get banned for breaking someone else’s toy… . :person_facepalming: .
Good eye, your exactly right; the image in post 4 is not Spirograph. It was just included in my google search for Spirograph images & I thought it looked neat.
If you had the enhanced kit that had the strait bars and squares you could create them it. My cousins had one of the kits that had like 30+ gears and stuff. Good times.
Some idiot in the family probably threw it out decades ago, but I had the super-kit with the gears, rails, rings, the works. You could’ve made a working 6-speed transmission out of that kit…
Whoa… that sounds neat. :+1: . I had never even heard of the “enhanced kit”.
So it turns out the one in post 4 might have been done by a Spirograph after all… the Enhanced Version. Wonder if Spirograph is still sold?? Time to google it.

Edit: Yep, it is still sold. Another company picked it up & started making & selling again.
