6. Guts T-Shirt; $32

Homage

It's not a genuine piece of the Aggro Crag, but this slime-green Guts shirt is the closest you'll get to being a contestant on one of Nick's most popular game shows.

7. Reptar Bar; $12

Amazon/Astor Chocolate

Everyone loves chocolate bars, but the instant you add Reptar to the equation, the whole thing becomes 75 percent tastier (we did the math). That's due to the green frosting on the inside, which is ripped right from the Rugrats episode "Candy Bar Creep Show." If you ever salivated over this bar as a kid, now you can experience the real thing (it'll even turn your tongue green like on the show). Now, what could be more Nick than that?

8. Nickelodeon Splat! Coloring Book; $11

Amazon/Random House Books for Young Readers

Transport yourself back to those late-night Snick parties and color in some of your favorite characters from the most popular Nick shows of the '90s. You've got plenty to choose from in this book, from Rocko's Modern Life and Hey Arnold! to oft-forgotten toons like Aaahh!!! Real Monsters and The Wild Thornberrys. This 96-page coloring book will keep you and your little ones (or your BFFs) busy for hours reminiscing about your favorite shows.

9. Hey Arnold! Notebook Collection; $15

Amazon/Insights

If you find yourself in need of some notebooks to keep all your private thoughts (or ideas), consider this set of Hey Arnold! notepads. You'll get one featuring Arnold's iconic football head-shaped silhouette, along with another decked out with Arnold, Gerald, and Helga in a repeating pattern. That's a lot more colorful than that boring old marble notebook you have on your desk.

10. CatDog Pet Toy; $9

Amazon/Fetch for Pets

Don't want your pet to be alone in the world like CatDog? Get them this adorable plush toy to spend time with. This soft little friend has Cat (and Dog, too, of course) in stunningly cute fashion for light and medium chewers to play with. CatDog may be conjoined, but you'll soon find that your dog won't want to go anywhere without them, either.

11. Classic Nicktoons Lanyard; $10

Amazon/Bioworld

If you're in the market for a place to keep your keys that isn't some boring adult lanyard, this retro Nicktoons option has all your favorite cartoons all over it. And if you carry a badge that needs to be visible at all times, there's even a window for that, too. Just pop out the Reptar sticker, pop in your badge, and you're good to go.
