Which childhood toy or toys do you miss the most and wish you still had?


I know I should say my starwars figures, i used to have the old darth vader and luke skywalker with the lightsabres that slid out of there arm, cos they'd be worth a fortune right now. But to be totally honest I'd destroy the lot of them (again) to have my old Transformers back!!!!!

Hahaha! Yeah they were so cool! :cool:

Remember getting in to them when I was living in Greece, and this American lad who lived up the road from us had Megatron. I was so jealous coz it was the coolest thing I'd ever seen. It's a dude, no wait, it's a gun! Pure class. :) :thumbsup:

That evil kinevel gyro bike thigamy jig..The one that had the red base the bike sat on and you used to crank it up with a white handle. Virtually indestrucatble. Don't make toys like that now.:(

Andy

my mate damian still has his evil kenevel on the side board and the box is still in perfect condition...i think he has the truck too sumwhere....hours of fun with that thing.......!

i do think boys toys were far more inventive than girls toys tho.......i mean there is only so much you can do with cindy or barbie dolls......lol........

Etch a sketch like scot says was quality and some of the board games i had.......i had a game called 'the purple people eater' i wish i still had that...not seen any around for years!

etch a sketch was one of my favourites, i never got bored with it either, not sure if they still sell them nowadays but i might ask father christmas for one :$

Not really a toy but i had a musical thingy with a handle and a nob on the front to wind it up and it used to play the tune of "raindrops keep falling on my head", i think it's the 1 thing i miss the most from being little and still have dreams i can hear it but i can never find it :cry:

my red and yellow suede roller boots were ace too :)

Over the hill in St Helens
my BMX - i loved my bike
crossfire - they made mighty weapons when you took the gun out of its holder and held it to your sisters head!
my atari console - combat what a poop game hehe
rolf harris xylophone thingy - i could annoy mum for hours with that (happy days)
weebles - good fun and also made handy weapons when thrown with force at sisters head!
rubicks cube and snake - kept me quiet for a while
twister - just the best laugh ever.......not quite the same when you buy it for your 8 yr old son and find out just how painful it really is to a very unsupple 34yr old!
clackers - ouch!

just so many to mention
