It is to my knowledge that Toshiba VCRs made in the 80s tend to be the fattiest, largest, and heaviest, because Toshiba tend to put more metal parts inside to increase unnecessary weight than other manufacturers. How can I forget that!!! 
(oh, see the attached pics). Look at this gorgeous beast.
What is your opinion with Toshiba VCRs made in that era? |
I remember those when I was in grade school! Its been years! I also remember the ones that were top loading. I think Motorola made them. Brings back some memories. Not to mention that we used audio records to read books to, and slide projectors. And this was all in the mid-90's. Makes me wish I was a kid all over again.
