Spacewarp, that brings back memories…
By happenstance I received the new Think Geek catalog in the mail yesterday.  Flipping through I stumbled upon a beloved toy from childhood, Spacewarp.  The light bulb went off and this instantly became the gift that I must give my son for Christmas.
Years ago I had given up hope of ever finding this toy on store shelves, figuring it had passed into forgotten toy history. Â As it turns out Ban Dai stopped making them in the late 1980′s and only recently brought it back, twenty years later, in Japan. Â Think Geek is one of a few America companies now importing them state-side.
I spent, who knows? Perhaps one hundred, two hundred hours playing with Spacewarp in my preteen years. Â Making roller coasters and then tinkering with the physics of the ride is just too fun to put into words.
