History lesson
The Great Mascot Craze of the 1980s
In the neon-soaked chaos of the 1980s, brands weren’t just selling soda, cereal, or sneakers—they were selling characters. The era gave rise to a full-blown mascot boom, with companies scrambling to create colorful, chaotic personalities that kids (and exhausted parents) would never forget. From Tony the Tiger’s growl to the Kool-Aid Man smashing through walls with a deafening “Oh yeah!,” mascots weren’t just marketing tools—they were pop culture icons.
This wasn’t an accident. As television advertising became more kid-focused, brands realized that mascots could bridge the gap between product and personality. These characters were loud, weird, and deeply stylized—equal parts commercial and cartoon. Many even spawned their own animated shows, video games, and toy lines, blurring the line between entertainment and advertising.
But beneath the sugar rush and plastic merchandise was a bigger idea: identity. Whether you vibed with Chester Cheetah’s too-cool swagger or Count Chocula’s spooky charm, mascots gave kids a way to see themselves—at least a little—on screen and in the snack aisle.

Gashapon Culture Helped Birth the Modern Art Toy Boom
Long before blind boxes became a global craze, Japan’s “gashapon” machines were vending toys with intricate details and limited-edition runs. These capsule machines—first popularized by Bandai in the 1980s—transformed cheap trinkets into collectible art, with each twist of the crank offering a new surprise. Pop Mart took this model and gave it an emotional edge, blending fashion, surrealism, and character storytelling to turn figures like Skullpanda and Hirono into symbols of personal identity. Today, what started with plastic rings and mustache gags has evolved into a billion-dollar industry powered by mystery and meaning.
How to Play?
Our personality quizzes are set up a little differently than your basic trivia quiz, but you’ve probably seen their kind around. Rather than having to choose the right answer from a list of multiple choice options, in this case, there is no “right answer”! (Two plus two will always be four, but every Golden Girls character is equally awesome.)
So, stop stressing. Just click on the answer that suits you best, and enjoy the ride. These quizzes are just for fun but who knows – you might just learn something about yourself along the way!
