Wow, that certainly brings back memories! LOL

That Max Headroom was more a flash in the pan, not really going the distance I thought. But I liked the Edward Scissorshands card a lot (The Moon).

a nice collecters deck .......... as much as i loved the eighties ..... it's not for me!! 


WolfSpirit  05 Jun 2003 
Well the descriptions are certainly not very subtle *LOL*
Adam Ant as the knight of pentacles ? I always thought he was a bit more fiery.

Ahhh, this deck had me at Ferris Bueller for the Fool!!! Have to spend some time perusing this one!!!

ok so someone fill me in... who are the twins on the lovers, I don't recognize them. 


WolfSpirit  05 Jun 2003 
The Cocteau Twins were a band with sort of dreamy poetic music. If I remember correctly they named themselves after the writer Cocteau and are not a family. 


truthsayer  05 Jun 2003 
i must have slept thru the eighties because i remember so few of the people mentioned. i did love ferris bueller as the fool. how perfect! i also loved the write up on madonna. another good take. 


HudsonGray  05 Jun 2003 
I've never heard of the Cocteau Twins either, but they have a web site -- http://www.cocteautwins.com/

According to that they were a low key phenomenon, but broke up in the 1990's after 15 years. Hmm. Another band I don't remember...

HudsonGray, I do remember the Cocteau Twins, don`t worry you didn`t miss much *lol* - just my opinion you understand.

Wasn't Edward Scissorhands released in the 90s? :o 


Blue Override  06 Jun 2003 
Robert Smith! Morrissey! Peter Murphy! Depeche Mode! Ian Curtis!

Oh, I'm fighting the urge to go swath myself in velvet RIGHT NOW in the summertime. WHO HID MY JOY DIVISION CD?

BUT, GUYS? WHERE'S SIOUXIE?

(Oooh, and the three of swords? Chrissy and Wendy O on the same card? Does it get any more explosively fabulous? Why is Pat Bennetar's ugly ol' head up in there?) 


Alissa  07 Jun 2003 
oh yes...

it's true ...

I am a teen of the 80s, and furthermore, I was a "new waver". Which pretty much means, I know or have some familiarity with at least 90% of the references they use.

thing is... i dont know any of them by face, so as cards, they seem useless to me ! Now, if they could make musical cards ...

(walks off singing, "Cause there is always something there to remind me... Always something there to remind meeee")
