Galaxy Radio hosts this morning were chatting about being spoilt as a kid, and they decided anyone who got a Mr. Frosty was spoilt!

I actually agree, as all I ever wanted about 3 Christmas's in a row was a Mr. Frosty but I never bloody got one!! HMPH!

So, whos the spoilt brats on here? ;)
 
MEEEEEEEEEEE I had one lol.

I must have pissed my mother off so much I got one. It was fun till the dog started to chew on the parts.
 
:lol: , my sister had one but we broke his hat trying to crush the ice. I didn't really think they were a posh toy as I knew lots of people getting them back then. Maybe they were expensive but I hadn't a clue how much it cost.

Great for crushing ice but the flavours they gave with it were horrible.
 
Never had one.

However, the Christmas they were all the rage (must have been around 1980) my neighbour got one. We went round on boxing day to sample the delights of the fantastic Mr Frosty.

The stuff took forever to crush, it did it badly and you only got enough flavouring to make an ant sized bit of ice taste of anything other than ice crushed badly in a plastic snowman.

Hence, it was relegated to the back of the neighbours cupboard by the time The Great Escape came on and never saw the light of day again.

My parents were relieved :)
 
I think a couple of friends had one and even though I wanted one for years, I never got one :( By Furie's description it doesn't sound like I missed out on much.
 
I wanted one, but never got one.

Looking at it now though, it's clearly a piece of junk, and my parents were right, I'd make a load of mess, then the novelty would wear off and I'd never use it again.

As wrong as it seemed at the time, they were definitely correct.
 
I had something similar to a Mr Frosty, but it only crushed the stuff you put in it. And none of the other fancy stuff you had with the real Mr Frosty.

I think I used it once, then it was a decoration in my living room next to the fish. It soon went in the bin though.

I still remember the TV advert as well, and I have the stupid tune stuck in my head now.

SNAP!

I remember being jealous of my mate Paul Cooper who had one. I'd use it for ages when I went to his house to play, although he found it boring.

They tasted delicious to a 6 year old, but then again, so did mud and worms.
 
I never got one because I'm Turkish.
My parents bought me a BBQ set instead.

Hell, making my own shish is far better than crushing some ice.
 
"Mr Frosty is so fun, he makes treats for everyone!"

Yay, I had one and I loved it. Best toy ever, apart from this Girls Worlds nail salon thing I had which was amazing also.
 
OMG I use to have a Mr. Frosty and also, I had another slushie maker that was shaped like Snoopy. The sad thing is, my mom use to hide them in places because she would hate to crush the ice since I would ask to play with it like, all the time.
 
I didn't have a Mr. Frosty, but like Taylor, I had a Snoopy one.

I wish my parents never gave that away.
 
YES! But he broke.... But it's ok because Ned got me another one as a present and i still have him and he provides slush :p
 
No, but that bitch Shelley Williams from a few doors down got one. Still fuming quite frankly, and a big part of the reason that it'll be government-funded homes for my parents when the time comes.
 
I never had one!! One of my brothers got one but I was never allowed to play with it as he thought I would break it.

My parents instead always bought me dolls and girly things....that worked out well!!

I however did play with my brother's GI Joes and soldiers....good times!
