Nostalgia Gifting

Posted on 1:24 AM by Unknown
Wound up giving Time Life's big "Power Rangers" DVD set (on behalf of myself and my brother) to my kid sister as an overdue birthday/College Graduation present (good job, Catie!) shortly after it finally hit my mailbox today. I was just a little too old to be "into" MMPR when it was new (though Linkara's fantastic "history of" videos have made into something like an after-the-fact fan), but she was a massive fangirl for it and I figured this set would be a good bet - though I was a little nervous that maybe Gen-Y maybe wasn't as big on early-onset-nostalgia as my generation had been in it's twenties.

Worries for not, thankfully - she was psyched enough to immediately assemble the little figure that came with it and pose it for an Instagram (pictured right.) Good vibes, all around.
