What was your favorite toy as a kid? :D

I have a few but one of my favorites was the Evel Knievel's bike set.

Baby Tenderlove... She really ate, peed and pooped!

How funny.... this thread is so stereotypical (gender-wise) isn't it?

Man those were the days.

I was in love with the 6 million dollar man! shung. shung shung shunc chiss chis... <the sound of his bionic-ness)

Roms 12-23-2008 06:48 PM
I'm quoting you from the other thread because it fits the topic better in this one... LOL (otherwise I'll get that topic way off of cars..)

I was subjected to metal wheels and wooden skateboards. :mad::D As Peter Griffen says, "Basteadddddds" LOL
I also had a wooden skateboard, and I had skates with metal wheels and leather straps (you strapped them on your shoes). They would spark as you road down the sidewalk, and when you hit an uneven crack you got thrown five feet..

I collect GI Joes and Action man from the 60's and 70's. Last Christmas my girlfriend in England (She's in the British Army) sent me a British SAS action man (He's the eagle eye version - his eyes move).. It's one of the best in my collection. I bought a set of 2 German Action man with a bike and a sidecar off a guy in Scotland this last year too...

My Woody action figure from A Toy Story. IIRC, my brother stepped on it and its arms fell off. R.I.P:

But instead of saying "Reach for the sky!" Your Woody said; "Fill it to the brim!" :D

Legos probably.. Didn't have a lot of toys growing up. Had books, dogs and horses. Of course didn't need a lot of toys when there were 10,000 acres of desert to explore and buttes to climb every day.

davidw 12-24-2008 01:22 AM
Legos, all the way!

Ditto, the things I used to make with lego, then destroy and do it all over again, so fun!

Roms 12-24-2008 01:29 AM
Yeah, Legos were a lot of fun. :D

Hehe, Legos weren't allowed in my house when my son was little, and won't be with this child when he's old enough. Ever step on one? Those buggers HURT!:mad:

I used to love Legos too but I had to throw my big bag of legos out because my dog would pee on them all the time.

I loved my gameboy too.

Didn't have gameboys when I was a kid. We had the Atari and Intellivision series of consoles as well as the Coleco and Commodore computer systems.
