Where Can I Find this Potty Chair/Seat/Trainer?

About 20 years ago there was a potty seat out. I think it was by Fisher-Price. My parents got it for my sister, who is 8 years younger than me (She's 21 now). It was a toddler sized potty seat with a thick plastic bottom. After the kid learned to use the potty and was bigger, you could unsnap the seat from the bottom and attach it to a regular toilet seat. The bottom of the potty then flipped over as a stool for the kid to step up to the toilet or the sink.
Now is it just me or have these type "systems" disappeared from the market place?
I don't want just a plastic toilet seat cushion b/c now I have to buy a separate stool for my son to reach the toilet.
I don't want just a potty chair b/c it doesn't allow my son to use a regular toilet without feeling like he's going to fall in.
I want something he can use himself until he gets the hang of it and then move to using the toilet.
Can someone please help me find this seat? Pictures help. Thank you so much.

I have seen those systems around when my oldest potty trained, so that would have been about 6 years ago now. Ours was like that but we ended up buying another seat for the regular toilet as the one that came with the potty was too big and adults couldn't use the toilet anymore. Check online with all the baby places.
I think this is some kind of luxury edition, lol: http://www.amazon.com/Step-Step-Potty-Trainer-Stool/dp/B000RMPZ74/ref=sr_1_85?ie=UTF8&s=baby-products&qid=1216768916&sr=1-85

This is the kind we had. But it was just $29 something at the time. Everything is getting so expensive.

We have one of them. I think we just got it at a Kmart/Walmart type store. I could be wrong though...it was the first one we bought probably 3 years ago.
This will probaly look funny but I'm typing as I look for what you want...
Hmm..not what you want but interesting, "Peter Potty Flushing Toddler Urinal" http://www.walmart.com/catalog/product.do?product_id=5301812
Here you go...it's a Sesame Street 123 Learn With Me Potty http://www.walmart.com/catalog/product.do?product_id=5223199
And the Diego version http://www.walmart.com/catalog/product.do?product_id=8054491
A character free Fisher Price one http://www.walmart.com/catalog/product.do?product_id=5420744
Another plain one with a separate stool http://www.walmart.com/catalog/product.do?product_id=5983015
The Safety 1st version http://www.walmart.com/catalog/product.do?product_id=8342851

And those are the ones available online through Walmart. Kind of makes me wish we didn't already have two potty chairs, some of these new styles are pretty cool!

That urinal is something else! It's definitely an interesting idea, but I'd rather have my son learn to sit and not miss in my house than to try to take aim at my wall. I'm just not keen on it yet. That one will have to grow on me, but by then my son will be probably living in his own house. ;)
Thank you very much for these. It seems like everyone else can find what I'm looking for but when I look it's a needle in a haystack. I've been looking since my son was about 20 months and SO not ready. Now at 27 months he's telling us that he's already soiled his diaper but I'd like to get him used to sitting someplace comfortable so as to get him used to the toilet soon.
Thank you for helping me out. Those are really nice potties.
