I've got a short post for today, but it's a cool one (to me, at least)!
I've been scanning and uploading tons of vintage stickers I found at the Goodwill Bins, as well as a couple of random items like vintage Valentine's Day cards and this 4Kids TV flyer!
I can still feel little me's exhaustion from waking up early on a Saturday morning to watch 4Kids TV. My favorites to watch were Pokémon Advance, Yu-Gi-Oh, Mew Mew Power, Winx Club, Kirby: Right Back At Ya, and Static Shock.
Anyways, despite my work scanning and uploading to the Internet Archive, I haven't felt much like talking about anything I've found. All the items are cool (obviously, or else I wouldn't have picked them up), but nothing has inspired me to sit and write a post about it.
However, I figured this Planet Lunch booklet deserved a little spotlight.
The prizes inside this issue were available from January 1, 1999 until May 16, 1999.
The items could be purchased/redeemed with "ploids" that you could collect from Frito-Lay snack packages. Ploids were little tabs you would cut out of the packaging and collect. Once you collected a certain amount of ploids, you could mail them in and get prizes.
Remember box tops? I'm more familiar with those personally, but it's all the same kind of idea.
This catalog isn't very large, it's more of a little booklet than anything. The product photos in it are soo nostalgic though. Being a kid in the 90s and early 2000s was so much fun! I still love the futuristic aesthetic. Lots of bright colors, especially green!
I'm amused by how perfectly placed and polished their snacks all are. I wonder if it was all actually fake food?
And here are the product pages to go with them that show the amount of ploids needed for each item.
I feel like they just don't make cool little gadgets like these for kids anymore.
But I'm not a kid or a parent, so maybe they do?
I think if I was to order two items from this catalog, I'd want the inflatable chair and the glow in the dark stars.
I was never able to have the glow in the dark stars because my parents were afraid they'd ruin the walls - which to be fair, they probably would've. And the inflatable chair is the perfect Nickelodeon slime green. It looks like jello and I love it!
The little Chester Cheetah bean bag plushie is also super cute. I'd put him on my monitor like in the product photo, though monitors nowadays are a lot more slim...maybe I'd have to settle for placing him next to the monitor lol
As always, you can view higher quality scans of the whole catalog (and the other items I mentioned but didn't share here) on my Internet Archive account.

Personaloids can't reproduce. Their genetic material are deemed useless of creating an embryo.
Additional facts: Isuma may be the father of the Iryoku family but he didn't create Michi, Naomi's child. He married Naomi when Michi was still three years old. Michi's real father is already dead(He died on his way to the hospital when Naomi was giving birth.)
The thing is, Isuma is Naomi's personaloid. He was created ever since she stood up as both father and mother to her child. Naomi never knew her real husband died. All she knew is that he was missing, until she saw Isuma a year after, who looked exactly like her dead husband.
