They Sucked but we Loved them! Walkie Talkies! 

Come on back and talk to Teddy Bear

Grocery store rack toys were the cheapest toys you could get back then, but they served their purpose,made kids happy, and had a charm to them.

I still have my Lazer Tag Walkie Talkies. They flipped open like the Star Trek communicators. :)

Haha. The walkie-talkies had to be so close to each other that you could pretty much hear each other anyway without them. - Ron Scott

I do remember getting the cordless phone to come over radio!

All the kids in my little area had CBs and real walkie-talkies.

I remember my uncle hooked me up with some heavy duty pro, monster brick walkie talkies. They used 16 AAA batteries! A fortune. I shortly realized, who do I even have to talk to? Didn't plan that out well.

Awesome Junkman, that was fun. Yeah me too just remember the black walkie talkies with the orange button and Morse code.. Good stuff. 👍🇮🇪👍

Those Alvin Chipmunk ones, definitely would've got you bullied at the sleep-over!

If you live around a mountain near cellphone towers, yeah, results can get strange. Me and my brother got Smurfs walkie talkies from my grandmother for Christmas and they didnt work with each other at all but one of them picked up a kid on his walkie talkie a few miles away. Oddly, the one never worked at all but the other one only picked up that kid on cloudy days. I don't think it was a walkie talkie thing though. My Casio SK-1 keyboard also worked like a walkie talkie. I could hear a guy at a Sheridon reception hall setting up a speaker system and he was getting mad cos when I was playing keyboard notes they were buzzing through his speakers.

I had some GI Joe walkie talkies. They were green and pretty cool, the signal seemed like a joke though.

Me and my sister had ones that look like the brick cell phones from the 80s and they had a Sprint sticker on them. We used to listen to my grandma's phone conversations and we swore they could hear us, so we had to be extra quiet. We laughing our heads off when our grandma told somebody over the phone, "I hate those those goddamn kids". :) haha We later found out they couldn't hear us at all. :) Thanks for the video

Them walkies were lots of fun back as a kid. There was a few years we had a group of kids and we had lots of fun playing all summer either playing war of cops and robbers. spys or just goofing on girls. Best range we ever got was half a block. these were the toys for the last summer that a lot of us played together be for going our separate ways kind of like the end of Stand by me.

I remember taking both of mine, turning both on and crossing both antennas together and making them screech when I was a kid. Those He-Man walkie talkies looked pretty cool though, the ones with He-Man and Skeletor.

Woah, long distance call commercial reference at 12:49. Trying to call Phoenix and getting Fiji...again.

LOL! As a kid, I had a set from "Star Trek" with the huge flip-up cover and they could barely reach 20 ft!

we had some Radio Shack ones that kinda worked. my buddy lived a few houses down and we'd each keep one. problem is you had to call on the phone to tell the other guy to turn theirs on, because you couldn't leave them 24/7 or the battery would die.

These weren’t a toy back in the day. They were a necessary during BB gun wars. Today’s kids will never know…..

Man, there was a guy I knew when I was a kid back in the day that worked for the volunteer fire department and he had badass walkie talkies on his hip all the time and I always wanted one that worked as well as his did but not a single one ever at all got close.

I had a mushroom coloured set with a cord attached, Think I played with them once or twice, but they ended up in my toy box for years.

Breaker Breaker

The only thing - Simon & Simon product should be a dart board! Or maybe a sit n spin 🤔

Robert Conrad endorsed Everyready Alkaline power cell

Yeah, I had those blue Star Trek ones. They actually worked pretty well as I recall, but those flip up covers broke off after about a week. I didn't care.

I don't remember ever having any walkie talkies that worked worth a damn. Most of them were junk.

I have the STAR TREK TOS walkie talkie range was 1 mile on ch 14 crystal and i got my kids the next gen walkie talkies range was 30 ft, also the TOS set blue that you bought in stores and the black set you had to send away for.

I still have the robocop ones. I also had the black and orange fisher price also the green headset walkie talkie from fisher price. I still have one of each of those

I had the Starsky & Hutch Walkie Talkie.

Had cheap ones over the years. Teenage years i bought high dollar ones from Service Merchandise they still didnt work well.

I had the Fisher Price ones, 10-4 breaker breaker good buddy over and out😂

Action Jackson was seventies

My younger brother and I had generic walkie-talkies. They didnt last long, thanks to poor quality...

We were always joking with truckers...come back . ten four?
