Subject: Older toy
I am at a total loss trying to think of the name of a toy that I had when I was younger. My mother and my sister remember the toy but can not think of the name either. None of my friends know what I am talking about. It is a game somewhat like Simon except it is about matching phrases. When you turn it on it says,"Hey, Hey, Hey, Pick your play". You then had to match phrases like "The Doctor" - "Is In". When you got them wrong it made fun of you I think and it congratulated you when you matched them right. I believe this toy had a one word name like Simon or Merlin but for the life of me I can't remember. PLEASE HELP ME. Mail me if you know what in the world I'm talking about.!!!!
