10/10! Woo hoo, I'm old!
You got 8 out of 10
I managed to get them all, though I can't recall what Google actually was. Whatchamacallit is still made, though I don't know how easy it is to find.
The only one I missed was the Green Machine question. Although I was a kid in the 70's, I was too old for tricycles. Which is probably why I got that question wrong. I'd forgotten about that product.
10 for 10
Nine out of ten. No clue what "Koogle" was, and I was alive in the 70s.
I believe it was peanut butter and jelly in the same jar (you could see vertical stripes of each through the glass).
That was Goober or something like that. Koogle was a flavored spread with a peanut butter base. They had chocolate, cinnamon, and vanilla. The chocolate was the best to me.
8/10 I was born in the 70's. Some of these were easy. I didn't know what the Koogle was and I didn't know what the green machine was. I thought it was a salad machine lol.
9/10, got the first one wrong, technically it was a movie and a car, but the movie came out after the 70's. Oh well! 💁♀️
I got 7 out of 10
Ha! 10/10! Still a 70s kid!
8/10 Missed the Shrinky Dinks and Koogle. Never heard of Koogle The name was probably enough to turn me off of it as a kid. I don't think I ever did a Shrinky Dink. My mom wasn't hip on pre-fab craft kits,/ projects like that. We sewed, made pottery, painted in oil or watercolor, made seed jewelry, macrame, tie-dye, rug hooking, all that awesome Dr. Hippie sunshine and tree-huggin' hippie sh*t. And she was still going to med school. My Momma was the coolest mom in the neighborhood. 💜☮️💜
you missed the same 2 i missed
I can’t comment or reply to anyone. Me tv won’t let the comment show up. Does anyone know how this happens?

Hmm. Not bad. Seven out of ten.

I would have gotten a perfect 10, only the page jumped (to put in an ad) when I was selecting the answer. I hate when that happens.
