A trip down memory lane: Winx Club!

  At some point in all of our lives, we’ve had guilty pleasures. It happens. While we (collectively) are more accepting of people liking shows aimed at a younger demographic today, that certainly wasn’t the case back in the early 2000s.  Being a 90s kid meant that, of course I loved Harry Potter back then. I also loved Sailor Moon. So when Winx Club premiered its first episode I became obsessed with the show for a while. Yes, the dub was handled by 4Kids… we’ll get to that in a bit. I remember being spellbound by the end of the first episode, and stuck around for the whole season.  I’ll be honest: I don’t remember much of it because it’s been a long time since then. I’ve watched tons of shows since. In my infinite wisdom, I consulted the Winx Club  to see if they know where I might be able to watch the original series.                  Oh…. Ohhhhh it’s one of those, is it? Theoretically that shouldn’t be an issue, I think ...

Well I unlocked a core memory

  I spent the last three weeks desperately trying to remember what this brand was called. I knew that I had the lion and tiger cubs. I knew they came in vibrant green packaging with a small piece of candy. I can rest easy knowing that the brand was Topps Baby Wid Animals! That’s all for now. I’m still working on my next review, so consider this a filler post.
