My mate had the action figure. Nothing necessarily wrong with saying 'jinkies' but I still wonder whether anyone actually said outside of Velma in Scooby Doo. I used to collect the Garbage Pail Kids sticker/card things. They were truly hideous. Yes Orco was the flying Jawa (as I used to call him). My mate had the action figure.

I see it like this - kids get the teachings of He-Man, adults get Rabbi Lionel Blue and his Thought for the Day, rednecks and chavs get Jerry Springer. I have to say, being a spectacle wearing brunette, that I've never said 'jinkies' but is that because I'm not short and 'rotund'?? Do you remember the more anarchic cartoons we had too? Garbage Pail Kids - to counter cabbage patch kids - and Attack of the Killer Tomatoes! Wicked theme tune. And I have to mention it for its bizarreness - Earthworm Jim. *big grin* I’m pleased to see He-Man in here…remember Orco?
