The toys you loved as children


Atomic Boo

Recommended Posts

what were the toys crazes of your day?

my favourite toy was the common bouncy ball,i just did different tricks by rebounding it of the ceiling and floor. In fact i still find myself lost doing that to this day. One other thing i loved was a superman figure and the special thing about it was that it had a retractable head!

And lego aplenty when you came into my room to play! you realise when you step on one and it absolutely wrecks! i think weve all experienced that at one point in time?

Hmm, let's see...

 

-My Little Ponies and Barbies (only had like, one Barbie and a couple of ponies, but I loved playing with them for a while... until I moved over to the more boyish stuff I guess)

-Duplo, Lego and K'nex, in that order

-bouncing ball fights with my sisters

-Play-Doh

-those racing car tracks and remote controlled cars that could spin and do jumps and stuff

-model train stuff, for a short time (loved putting those houses together)

 

 

I miss being a kid sometimes.

I used to have an enormous amount of Action Man figures. I loved building camps with them. Oh man, those battles between Action Man and dr. X were epic.

I also remember playing with something that had miniature figures in a miniature cave of some sort. It was this boy with a cap and a slingshot and some evil monster. I had a rat and a spider version. Damnit, I can't think of the name! I guess you could call it the boy version of those little Polly Pocket things.

While I was a kid I didn't understand the point of action figures... I mean I loved the turtles, BMFM and such, but never wanted to own an action figure. Well, guess I had a very boring childhood... Wait, no it was actually great. My NES would probably be one which I got for my 5 year birthday. But that doesn't mean I spent the whole time playing with it.

 

Usually in the summer we went swimming in the nearby lake, go biking etc, or when I was a little older my friend and I fixed up my mums old car. That probably comes second. And we built a "tree"house, it's more like a house since it isn't built on a tree or anything. And has to storeys :D Later we built a garage for the car we fixed.

 

Oh and there was a time when I was hooked on the movie top gun, I made lego airplanes that looked like an F-14 (or at least on my mind they did ;) )

 

Being an adult sucks, big time :(

I remember I had a figure of Murdock from the A-Team when I was very young - that was so awesome (until my brother chewed his rubber head). I also had an original Darth Vader action figure, til my dad stole it and took it away to his office. I also loved Real Ghostbusters toys, Lego, Sylvanian Family, My Little Pony (anything with animals), WWF figures, stuffed animals, those weird pots of slime/goo stuff that didnt actually do anything (but sometimes had weird aliens and things in it)...oh, and Monster in my Pocket. Too many things.

If it's listed here, I probably played with it or had a friend who played with it. I haven't done very much growing up in terms of the things I like. I still collect toys like crazy. It would be insanity to list all the toys I played with, but here's a shot off the top of my head.

 

-Lego

-Turtles

-He-Man

-Starcom

-Ghostbusters

-Bucky o'Hare

-Mighty Max

-Scalextrix.

-Care Bears (I nearly had 'em all)

-Power Rangers

-Mario Bros.

-Sonic stuff.

 

God, the list just goes on and on...
