RichCI Posted October 14, 2009 Share Posted October 14, 2009 Hotwheels, Matchbox and Johnny Lightning cars. Although, my mother swears the best toys she ever bought for my brother and I were a pair of these exact same motorcycles (that's neither of us in the pic, I found it on the web): She told me we rode them so much that they eventually wore out so she bought us a second set.

Riverside Posted October 14, 2009 Share Posted October 14, 2009 Clackers belonged to the little sister. They were nasty - either blew up in one's face, or made a big bruise wherever they ended up. Nunchucks for babies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
retrosurfer1959 Posted October 14, 2009 Share Posted October 14, 2009 clackers were for the kids that couldn't yo-yo! I remember when they came out and there was a big stink when schools wouldn't let kids have them at school too dangerous. erector sets were cool when they were metal and bolted together. and of course GI Joe was the boy version of a doll (action toys) but I mean the big GI Joe's not the little plastic molded things. I also remember the little plastic army men that we used to set out and then shoot at with BB guns and fire crackers to decimate the ranks. the only plastic figures I remember wanting as a kid were astronauts, the space program was huge so lots of space toys the one I remeber was Major Matt Mason or something similar with a gazillion add on toys pretty cool and probably worth a fortune if they were in good condition. but back then nothing stayed new we played outside and destroyed everything with rough play something changed in the world and personally i don't think t was a good change Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ksdaddy Posted October 14, 2009 Share Posted October 14, 2009 Same here but remember, we were pre-pubescent when we were playing with the plastic ones. Then we got older and.... Well, now that I think about it, some of us are STILL playing with plastic ones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
