What is the oldest toy you've seen at a retail store recently? I don't mean rereleases like He-man, but toys that have just been sitting on the shelf or back in the stock room for years upon years. We've heard the MUSCLE story, but what about everybody else?

I recently saw a Tiny Toons Hampton Pig plush from 1992 at K-Mart. Ten years... just sitting in the store!

Late last year I saw some of the zbot 3 packs at a KB toy store made in 92 or 93 as well as some old exosquad and robotech stuff.
