When I was a kid in the 90s, I had this memory of seeing a movie in which two toys roamed around different environments. It was darkly lit and felt lonely, almost creepy, like a live-action Toy Story directed by David Lynch.

I thought about it occasionally while growing up and eventually I just gave up on the idea that it was a real film and it was probably just a memorable dream that stuck with me.

Years later as a teen, I was in CVS and was browsing their DVD rack (CVS use to sell DVDs) and noticed two very familiar looking characters on the cover of a movie called Where the Toys Come From.

Turns out, this was an extremely low budget Disney movie that aired on the Disney channel in 1983 and was basically forgotten about. It felt surreal and vindicating to see that it was real.

Do you have any "shadow memory" experiences like that?

First off, I know there are subreddits dedicated to this, but most of them are about hunting for actual songs, they aren't really catered to obscure TV themes.

Almost 20 years ago, there was a video that I enjoyed that was eventually taken down by the uploader. While it was up, I asked him what the theme was and he told me it was a game show theme. The memory of the show's name has been lost to time in my mind.

The uploader hasn't been active for a long time and doesn't reply to comments.

Anyways, this random plumber commercial uses the theme: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lS6-AASE6Sk

I asked this uploader if he knew the source, and nope, dead end there too.

I've tried using song recognizer apps to no avail. All I can tell you is that this is, without a doubt in my mind, a theme from a 70s or 80s game show. I remember watching a few clips of the game show on YouTube after finding out the name of the song.

Any help would be appreciated.

I mean... holy shit.

I was wondering how stable the KO version is. I'm concerned that I might have problems with the joints not staying on or issues with loose pieces.

Their goal was to create the perfect minifig, but there was an unexpected growth side effect, which resulted in Technic Dude being shunned and feared by the very people who created him.

After roaming the earth in complete isolation for a very long time, he formed an uneasy alliance with a community of nomad minifigs. While they still feared him, they knew he was the only one who could stop giant robots, monsters and other cool shit.

Technic Dude had a difficult life. I hope someday he can find peace and happiness.
