Most of you Love Retro, that's possibly why you are reading our posts now. We are also sure most of you Love getting parcels & surprises as well! 

Iusedtolovethat are branching out into sales and we want to try something a little different. Inspired by a great Retro Enthusiast across the pond we are going to be offering a monthly 
Retrobox.

In exchange for your hard earned cash, you will get a minimum of 10 Retro memories in a fab box. Also, 1 lucky random Retrobox will include an extra mystery surprise.

Each Retrobox will sell for the bargain price of £25, including post and packaging. 

For the first month we are selling 12 boxes.... then we want to gather feedback on whether you used to love the products and if the boxes rekindled your nostalgic taste buds.

If you want to be one of our first twelve customers and bag yourself an amazing Retrobox, please private message us your details, or contact us through:

If you order your Retrobox prior to the 30th of November, it will be delivered in time for Christmas.

Hey everyone, been while since the last blog post so Ill fill you in with whats been happening. 

We obviously had the festive period and I had a lot of fun and relative success on the FB Page getting some promising numbers Liking the page, Twitter numbers grew to a healthy level as well as we posted lots of Geeky Festive Images and Posts. 

Its amazing how quickly your numbers drop the minute you take a break which just goes to show how important it it to remain focused and provide your readers with fresh new content on a daily basis.

I have purchase a light box and have taken and posted some original images for your enjoyment, this is taking some time to get just right as the clarity has to be perfect to present great pictures for you.

I'm continuing to develop our Meet Market section so if you would like to promote your talents let me know. Anyone who also would like to advertise or has products they would like me to review then simply get in touch.

Finally for now i'm delighted to introduce a new section to www.iusedtolovethat.com called Toy Review TV with Sektor 7G's Genesis Moss who also hosts Geek News Now on our News feed. Give it a look and subscribe to his you tube channel.

Please guys get in touch as always your feedback is important.

Good Evening All.

So today we spent a little time looking through our local Charity Shops and coupled with our other recent purchases should have loads of new images and content to add to the site. 

About time you may all say, and you would be right. Most of our time is spent trying to link and adapt our Website/Twitter Acct and FB Page - and were almost there. 

What we're looking for now is to hit 30 FB Page likes to activate our FB analytics. So Please tell all your friends to Like our Page. 

We would also Love for you to become more active, so Like our Posts, If you have ideas let us know, if you have Products - Let us review them.

Thanks.

Gosh Darn it FB

So we tried to be smart....
Posting our content through the website which should show you individual images on our FB Page, but instead it only shows our pretty little site logo. It then forwards it onto Twitter. 
We spoke to the guys that help support the website but unfortunately its in the hands of FB. For now this feature will only be used if there is no image. Guess for now we'l have to be lazy and re-post our image blogs directly on FB as well.


As usual please get in touch if you feel you can contribute to our site in any way.

Thanks.

Searching for content...

There's not been a blog update for a while. So here it is.

I've spent the last few weeks focusing on the Social Media Arms of the Site. Trying to get Followers and FB Page Like so there is actually people out there who will visit the site.

There is now a good amount of people involved and it's time to refocus on the site. The content is poor and sparse but i'm in touch with some great people who will be delivering great and unique content which will hopefully be of interest to site visitors.

I have moved the Homepage around and am trying to get the look just right but it is difficult to do as i would prefer the images as well as the content to be original. So if there any artists or illustrators out there who would like to contribute please let me know(full credit will be given) the same applies for anyone associated with action figures, comics, movies etc.

I am also looking to review related content so feel free to get in touch with anything you would like reviewed.

I have added a search feature now although it will be more useful when there is actually stuff to search for.

I have also made my first official iusedtolovethat purchase and will get some pics and content added real soon.

As always your feedback is invaluable as I look to make this a site you will continually visit and one which allow meaningful and fun interaction.

Thanks for your continued support - please tell your friends.

Not much to say other than the Motu Original Toyline 1-7 (1982 - 1988) image gallery is now complete. Over time I hope to provide updated images but in the meantime my next decision is new set of images for another Classic Toyline? or start to develop that section.....decisions decision. Any feedback as always is most welcome. Oh yeah and we added another image of the day.

So iv'e had a busy week away from iusedtolovethat which has meant unfortunately I hadn't been able to complete MotU original toyline images as quickly as I would have liked. I hope to complete this tomorrow and move onto the next set of original toyline images. 

I would love anyone who has been following iusedtolovethat to contact us with what they would like to see next. I will also add some more content around these images. 

What I want to do is so vast it's hard not to get carried away sometimes. The content I already have put on needs to be a little more refined and tidied up to add interest and keep people coming back. I just need to remind myself this will take time.

On a separate note - Went to the Supermarket today and got into a little trouble for slipping away only to be found in the Toy Isle!. My excuse of 'its research' seems to have been accepted. My Wife is indeed a lucky lady :)

Not a lot happening here tonight. 

Just an update for the image of the day. The Japanese classic game Tamagotchi has inspired tonights viewing so time for me to sit back and enjoy the equally classic Battle Royale.
