[quote=bearishgurl]I also loved playing with clackers (they developed hand-eye coordination) and still have an orange pair. They were later “recalled” because people were getting concussions with them (user and bystanders).
Never opened, still in their original packaging Win Industries Clackers from 1971! I found them a while back and listed them on eBay, but the listing got pulled because they are a recalled toy – apparently kids were banging themselves up pretty good with them back in the day!

Sooooo much better than TruckNutz.
BG, didn’t you say that you were a military spouse for many years? Do you mean to tell me that you managed to hold onto a set of clackers through all those moves?
Actually I had forgotten all about these things (I was never affluent enough for a pair of my own Clackers. Those and white go-go boots. Fvcked me up for life.) Hmmm, a lot of the craziness I’m seeing in members of my generation these days can probably be traced to these things (Clacker-induced TBI).
