Description

You bought them in a little pack which included a sheet to rub your decal on. The decals were like the material of temporary tattoos, and when you colored with a pencil over the back of the sheet, they would adhere to the surface of the play page that came with them. Really cool at the time.

    Glorious Site. He is not a capital "C" collector ... just a guy who loved the stuff as a kid and has built a massive shrine to his passions today.

I loved those things too. Trying to see if they still exist now that I have a three year old of my own.

I am so happy I found this site! I was obsessed with my Star Wars ewok presto-magic! Does anyone know if they're still sold?

My grandmother bought me one nearly everytime she would visit and she had some on hand at her home waiting for me when I went to her house. They were so much fun! It's amazing how you could lose yourself in the imagination of a scene you helped create. I would love to buy some for my nephews.

I really took my presto magic's seriously, like i was creating something for all to see. My favorites were custer's last stand and the battle of midway. I would even hang them up on my wall when they were done. Like art work to me!

I wish I knew if they still make these and where I could get some. They should make an online version of it.

Believe it or not, I had one called "Street Riot." I have a crystal clear memory of rubbing on a hulky guy who was holding a lead pipe. Please let me know if you know where I can get these!
