I'm searching for a toy that I had in the mid- to late-eighties and I'm hoping someone can help. It was square, with a blue bottom and black top. You used a stylus or one of the other tools to push down what seemed to be bubbles in the black part. This created a hole, and you could turn on a light from underneath and it would light your picture up. The light was a color wheel, and you could rotate it to make the colors change. Then, when you were finished, you lifted the screen and could start all over again. If anyone remembers this or knows its name that would be awesome! :oscar

Wow! I have no idea! But it sounds really cool... kind of like a combination etch-a-sketch and lite brite?
