I was playing with Masters of the Universe figures in 1984!
Oh yeah! Waiting to see the negatives after chemical development in the wardrobe the excitement was palpable and followed by shrill exclamations of "you can see the dust lane!!" when looking at the still wet negative strip through a small magnifier and the sense of achievement and satisfaction was huge when finally seeing a developed print under white light....some time later

Great post.

It is really fascinating to see I recon Terry, that photo even formed part of a multi award winning display at the time too ...the standard required has certainly increased
