    I remember dancing to this at the Saturday Sock Hop Dance for the local TV station. What a great time to grow up in America the 50's & 60's were.

    This was when T.V. had great kids shows! which helped shape character and imagination! Which CGI does not do.

    Now I'm not happy. When I was a kid Santa asked me what I wanted. I said " A Fireball XL5 " I didn't get it and by the look of this video you could get them. Hey Santa I still want one.

    I wanted a Robert The Robot. My sister hated his scratchy voice. I recorded it and played it back to annoy her! 🤭

    I feel for you Chuck. I did have one of the pictured Fireball XL5 toys and it was one of my most cherished and played with toys. I probably played with it until it fell apart even though I took very good care of all my toys. The good news is you can purchase one of these on eBay for about $20,000. Probably better to buy a model kit though as they are less than $200 and are much more accurate in detail.
