[3] Yeah, that one is spelled wrong, as is the 4th answer.

Awesome, just freakin' awesome. Knew every one right off the bat. Boy do I feel sorry for anyone who didn't grow up in the US in the eighties.

how do you get around that spelling problem

[3], [4] Argh; I hate that. So how is it supposed to be spelled (for this puzzle, I mean). Is it plural? Even spelling with "brite" (well "brites") it doesn't work. Ick.

[5] Ack! Two spelled wrong? How the heck are we supposed to know how to spell them the way that counts?
Edit: Got the right combo now.

[7] Spell it differently? Tanga will tune you out if you spell it right. Best to spell it slightly wrong.
Any salt on #9? Still stuck.

[7][9][11] Fix the spelling in [3] first.

Ok, have all the answers but its not taking it due to spelling issue with # 4 & # 8 - How did you all solve this problem?
Why does this seem to happen so often??

I know the correct spelling, but for this puzzle does #8 need to be spelled with a "g" and does #4 need to have an "oo" near the end? I'm still not having it accept my answer.
Was the fourth from the bottom spelled correctly, or did the puzzle author spell it with an "i"?

[12] There's a two letter abbreviation for the guy on the left. The rest should follow. That is, if I'm right. I can't get the 7th one.

#2 : I'd be lion to you (5 times) if I said I couldn't help.
for the misspellings, [15] is correct.

That was pretty tough ... I'm amazed at how many I was able to get without looking them up. The one with the army guy was particularly tough ... I was lucky to spot it on a list. Also, the spelling tripped me up on a few of them.

Fun concept. Thanks for trying.
Question: I've only been on this site about a month, Is correct spelling optional, or is it part of the "puzzle?"
More often than not, the puzzles have spelling errors or other inexplicable oddities. I have a couple puzzles I would like to contribute, but if messing with the spelling/logic is part of the game, I would like to know before I do.
