I am sooooooooo glad the Kickin' It in the 80s competition is almost over.

There are many, many amazing designs and I am excited to see who will come out on top but... I CAN'T TAKE ANY MORE TACKINESS.

Seriously, the 80s came out with some awesome stuff, but the patterns, the colors: GAH.

Glad we won't have to score those things for very much longer :P

The 80s will never be remembered as an age of sophistication. Why not have fun with it?

not so much the style, but the boombox/breakdancing/etc theme is really overdone.

Though I like some things about the 80's....it's something that I would rather look back upon with a little laugh and move one to whatever I was doing.

We kinda know that the 80's sucked....not entirely, but still. That's whay we are making fun of it. But you put out a competition like this and you draw attention from people creating more original and inspiring designs.

If you want to impress me, have a 1780's competition, test people to see if they know beyond their immediate history.

I agree, but it did give us some of the coolest submissions I've ever seen...
