Digging The Past (Part 1) - Exo-Squad
Exo-Squad was one of my favourite TV series when I was young. It broadcasted from 1993 to 1995, spanning 2 seasons. I didn't get to watch it till the end, but, it was definitely good, I could tell. I got stuck to the TV like glue because of them, and I even collected their toys. Alas, the toys got destroyed by my cousins. I don't know where they are now, and that breaks my heart. Those were classic, good toys. I would always make that "woosh woosh" and "pyong pyong" noises, depicting a battle between good and bad. Those were the days when imagination ran wild, and you wouldn't care about being opinionated. I lived in Boon Lay back then. Just me, the toys, and my little room. How I miss those times.
I can't remember the whole storyline, but I knew it was a battle between aliens and humans. Both parties have Exo-Frames, suits that they get into, with a whole array of cool weapons and powers. It's a winning combination for any boy at my age back then. I remember the awe I felt from just looking at them, imagining if I'll ever get a suit that cool. (Hopefully, I can build a suit of my own when I'm rich enough. Heh.) Anw, war wages, and plots unfold, yadda yadda yadda. I shall read about it all over again. It's bringing smiles to my face, just remeniscing those moments. For now, just take a look at the toys I used to have (note: USED TO HAVE).
Cheers to a great cartoon of my time. Missing you.
