Big telephone technology, action figure mania, an end to the bronze age of comic books, the emergence of personal computers, and everything in between. Although a little strange, the 80s pop culture will always stand out from the rest and serve as a springboard to many contemporary developments. Notably, Netflix’s flagship show, Stranger Things, is a portal to that era, and its star, Sadie Sink, is the queen of its pop culture.

Although almost the entire Hawkins high gang of the sci-fi drama is a bunch of Gen Z kids, in reality, they very much live the lives of Cabbage Patch Kids and embrace the period in all the right ways. Since their journey will soon come to an end and we will never be able to re-live one of the most vibrant eras of all time, we want you to take out a little time and join Mad Max as she takes you on a journey to the golden era’s biggest trends in one of her videos.

Well, if you can’t live without your smartphone, Sadie Sink and her Hawkins high friends never got one. Back in those days, they had telephones with a long chord attached to it. The plus point is, they could even connect from Upside Down. According to Maxine, Cabbage Patch Kids topped every 80s kids’ Christmas list. Parents had to rush to the shops before the stock got over. Nintendo too is a product of the great era. If you have one and it isn’t playing, it is probably because you haven’t cleaned its cartilage per the actress.
