Holy crap. I never actually did this, but this ad was in every single comic book I bought. Seems like something out of the 1950's, but it was the 80's.
The 70's version had cool stuff like the "Hoover Craft", and the picture of it was way out of scale giving the illusion that it could actually carry a young kid around town.
My folks never gave into my demands...thankfully. I never owned Dingo boots either. http://comiccoverage.typepad.com/comic_coverage/2007/09/classic-ads-if-.html
