I actually found one of those ads on the back of a 1965 25 cent Batman comic. Sounds fun!

Trivia:When it was introduced into combat during the Vietnam War,a lot of Soldiers and Marines weren't impressed with it and they derisivly called it"The Mattel Toy"!!

Paula Zargaj-Reynolds

M, I don't think it is for sale. You may want to check at http://www.dialbforblog.com/archives/353/ where I found the image.

Can anyone tell me what he/her thinks was the purpose of this Ad in 1967?
and what would be the reaction from nowadays ?

Thank you :D

Gun stores Utah

Toy guns are quite famous for children and they use it widely for the games which will improve their interest.

I actually have 2 mint condition Mattel M16's from that era. Couldn't play with them outside because they were too expensive. what do you think they are worth?
