I have a shit-ton of lego's, I use to build elaborate cities and such.

Anyone remember those space toys, where they were little guys at a space station, and they had magnets on them? Someone PLEASE remember the name of that, I loved those things.

I was also a big TMNT fan, always wanted the van they rode in but never got it.

By far my biggest collection was G.I. Joe, my dad used to take my to Toys R Us and buy me one G.I. Joe figure every Friday if I was good, and I was so I had a shit-ton of G.I. Joe's, one christmas I even got the green remote controlled G.I. Joe vehicle.

Zbots were the shit too:

My favorite was hotwheels/matchbox cars though, I have a box full of hundreds of them.

------------ Favorite Toy Now ? --------------

Probably my MOD'ed xbox with emulators and a shit-ton of games.

Holy shit, I had these too! I forgot about those.

At or local grocery store, there used to be a gumball machine that had these in it, 2 in a plastic ball for 50 cents.

Then there was this store called Big Lots that sold the wrestling ring, and like packs of 12 for a dollar.

any of you guys have any of thoes toys still somewhere? keeping them

Legos were a staple of my childhood. my brother and i used to build Lego cities that spanned across the entire length of my bedroom, and i still have 2 huge treasure chests in my mom's basement filled with Legos.



i was never a big fan of Barbie but i loooooved My Little Pony. my best friend in elementary school was a Barbie freak and i was a My Little Pony freak, so we'd bring our toys over to each other's houses to play... her with her 15 barbies and me with my 15 ponies. it was radical.



Trolls were another huge obsession of mine... and i'm not really sure why. i used to collect them when i was a kid, and i had probably 100 different trolls of varying sizes (including the life-sized Troll "baby"). most of them got sent to a village in Africa and my mom has a picture on her fridge of a bunch of little African kids playing with my trolls.

I know, I had like 20 of those plastic devider boxes FULL of them.

Not to mention, we had this little kiask in our mall that sold the coolest metal slammers, like atomic bombs, and grenades and one shaped like a circle saw.

I can't believe how big of a fad it was, and how quickly it died off.

man, girls get screwed over on toys.

Die-cast metal. It cost like $100 back in the mid 80's and each lion came off.

Huge in Chicago, too...I remember there were knock-off slammers that they sold at 711's and what not that looked the same but were really light...they used to always keep them in glass cases behind the counters at stores 'cuz they had so many stolen...totally pointless.

that's why it's good to have a brother you can steal toys from.

i really didn't have a lot of the typical "girl" toys like the Easy Bake oven and Barbie and her 19278619 different accessories. i liked functional toys that i could get creative with. those were the ones that kept me entertained for days.

we also had a SNES when i was a kid and i spent a lot of time playing that - Zelda, Super Mario World, Starfox, Zombies Ate My Neighbors, Home Alone, etc... that thing was the shit!

oh man did anyone else have the Crash Test Dummies car?! i can't find a good photo of it, but it was the one where the dummies heads popped off and the car would crunch up and the airbags would deploy! i had a shit-ton of fun throwing that thing down our stairs.
