What was your favorite toy as a child?

Post by Superman »

I have to say that since I was child of the 80's, I have many favorites. My all time favorite were Legos. I had Pirate ships, castles and some space ones too!

Other than those, I loved:

He Man
Transformers
Star Wars (I wish I still had those)
Real Ghostbusters (SO FUN!)

Damn, I miss the 80's. Does anyone know any good 80's sites?

Well, there's Yesterday Land and X-Entertainment.

Mine were Legos and TMNT.

Hey, does anyone else remember Ramagons? :?

My favorite was my original issue Optimus Prime, he was in continous play for well over a decade as he was passed from me to my younger brothers, eventually he literaly fell apart, he wouldnt even hold eiether truck or robot forms, man I had some fun with that toy.

Other faves : He-man - The most Homoerotic toys EVER not sold in an Adult toy store :roll:

Legos - I still have a massive tub of these :wink:

Spirograph set - crazy gears and cogs combined with colored pens, kept me entertained for hours...

good times.......

Hmm, He-Man was rather homoerotic. I am surprised I didn't turn out gay because of him...

Anyone remember "Supernaturals?" They were these robe things with a hologram for a face.

My Army of over 1000 green and tan army men with tanks and artillery(great to play with in the sand box, built forts, bunkers etc then we threw rocks at them and made sound effects fun fun :lol:

My Big Wheel with skid out lever.(ahhh those were the days)

Star Wars(original stuff, not this "power of the Force" crap)I had everything and I gave it alllllll away because I stopped playing with them. I can still remember my parents faces when I did that. My favorite two peices were the MF and the AT-AT. And the TIE with ejectable wings...lol.

GI Joe. not the new stuff.. I'm talking original Barbie sized GI Joe. The ones with the fuzzy 5 o'clock shadow. fun fun.

Heh, come to think of it, since Utsanomiko and I grew up/live out in the country, one of our favourite "toys" was probably a shovel. :mrgreen:

Actually in the comics they team up with the Oktober Guard which is like the Soviet GI Joe team.

As for favorite toys, I would say legos.

Now, my ten inch tall action figure of Satan whooping on my five inch tall action figure of Jesus.

Yes, they are real.
