We moved into a new house in Rockville, Maryland when I was five. My parents indulged me (for once) and used Mayflower Van Lines. Why Mayflower, you might ask? Because they were offering a die cast truck for your kid if you used them. I couldn’t wait.

Then the driver forgot the truck. The little one. He remembered the big one. And I remain bitter to this day.

But, I thought, perhaps this could be rectified? Indeed it could - ebay didn’t let me down, all these years later. And here it is!

LOL.

Kind of reminds me of my own bitterness- I downloaded an NES emulator just to go back and KICK THE HELL OUT OF BATTLETOADS .

What a huge disappointment for a little kid. Shame on Mayflower driver.

Shame it didn’t happen now. I mean a tweet or two could have one mailed right to you.

I thought of that ... should have tried it now. You never know.

They promised they would mail one - never showed up. As JQJ213 pointed out, if only Twitter had existed back then.

I have no idea what any of that means, but I support you fully.

If you played Battletoads on the NES, you’d know. Ha ha.
