This is just a thread to reminisce and past the work day. Name some of your favorite items from your childhood. Toys, things in general, etc. Whatever. And lets be tasteful.

I'll start off...I used to have this Trapper Keeper with little kitties all over it. I begged n begged for that dang thing and I looooovvvved it!

Most of my other toys consisted of discarded VCRs, motors, engines, etc . . .

yeah, i must admit, i used to love me some legos too...never had lincoln logs hell, i didnt start seeing them suckas til i was damn near grown on infomercials...i feel cheated :(...I used to love my glow worm and cabbage patch doll too...had a newborn with birf' cerfiticate n errythang. oooh...I used to collect garbage pail kids cards too...loved those ugly ass thangs.

nes, snes, playstation, hockey and soccer equip.

green/gray army men, hardy boys, GI Joe, daisy pump up bb gun, voltron, thundercats, zorro, dukes, rin tin tin, JAMS, alligator shirts, railroad tie playgrounds, gameboy, atari, etc.

GI Joe, Legos, and I guess the original super soakers were pretty cool.

The two toys from my childhood I never should have had in the same room were my GI Joes and a cool new Kodak Instamatic camera. One day, I had the bright idea of "merging" the Joes with one of my cousin's Barbie dolls. Next, out came the ol' Kodak and off went the film to the local drug store for developing. A few days later they called my dad and asked him to come down to pick up my pictures.

He thought it was funny but mom had other plans. Guess what she made me show grandma later on that night?

To this day, I think the greatest invention ever made was the Polaroid and later on the digital camera so we don't have to have film developed anymore.

Werd.

Definitely Legos, mostly space legos. "Blacktron" was the shit. I also liked the Pirate stuff.

I was also a big fan of Transformers and GI Joe.

Werd. And the funniest childhood toy memory goes to...

Dude, that was hilarious...I can see the look on your granny's face...BWAAAH!!!

Legos were the worst to step on barefoot though. Especailly the small one bump kind. You'd step on it, it send waves of intense pain up our leg so you raise your foot till its gone.. then put your foot down. Unbeknownst to you, it stuck to the bottom of your foot and nearly sends you over again! Damn legos.

I loved them though. You should see the awesome ones they have now. I stopped by a lego store in LA and they had like, the millenium falcon and a start destroyer, both were fuckin HUGE! i think the SD was 37" long or so. Damn spoiled kids.

Tiny Tears Doll, Tiny Thumbelina Doll and puzzles.

my crib was empty and my toy box was bare

Also the green Super Soaker, K-Nex, and TMNT.

We never made any of the stuff on the box cover :P

I hate you all.

I never had toys growing up, or hugs.

The closest thing to "toys" I had were my Fishing pole, and air rifle.
