But he wasn't being snarky. The way you wrote your post you made it sound like that you are presently unaware that the human characters ever existed in toyform at all. At no time did you make it clear that you were referring to a lack of knowledge back then, as opposed to now.
Hense the ebay comment.

Dude, what are you talking about? Of course there was ebay in the late 90's. Just because you may not have used it doesn't mean others didn't. I've been using ebay since 1998 and I'm 99% positive it's been around earlier than that.

Almost no one knew about the existence of feathers as a theory for dinosaurs in the early 90's. I was reading books too, and I can't even recall anyone mentioning it untill at least 97-98 in a publication for the general audience. Unless you were reading journals, which I don't even know of at the time, that somehow may have theorized feathered dinosaurs, it's amazing to me that you would have known about that during the release of Jurassic park. Purchasing journals also requires funds, like upwards of $100 dollars or more in some cases, which I know I didn't have at age 13.


Edit: Just did a quick internet search. Apparently EBAY was started in 1995 and had 2 million auctions by 1997.
