Are there items today that remind you of growing up in the 1970s and 80s?

Are there items still available today that remind you of growing up in the late 1970s and 80s, which were a fascinating time? I still find some of the most classic and enduring products from that era being sold today; often in a slightly updated format or even as retro classics. What are some of these goods, and do you still buy them? One of the items I continue to wear are the classic Adidas Samba sneakers. I had my first pair when I was 14 years old.

Panther running shoes from Japan were worn during track and field events by schoolboys in the 1970s and 80s.

Adidas Originals have recreated many sneaker models from the 1970s and 80s
which young people have fallen in love with, like the Stan Smith (below).

Anybody remembers Action Man figurines from the 1970s?
They were basically dolls for boys.

Adidas tobacco, I owned a few pairs in my younger days. They still make them today. Not only do I smoke tobacco, I like to wear it too.
