gi joe with the parachutte was fun..

them gas powered cars and planes on a string you could never control.

water rockets were a blast.

^^ over my head too... T.R. was a board game where you shot discs across at your opponent trying to land direct hits on their ships which triggered a rubber band powered explosion. It was cool, but too big to be widely sold... and the discs I supposed could be dangerous for your more "introverted" youngsters...

Lincoln logs were my all time fav (besides GI joe and star wars)

My Hot Wheels, saved almost all of them. Those 80 or so little toy cars I saved all that time, moved from place to place, now worth between 3 and 5 grand LOL. I have the best of them in a nice case over my desk.

^^^ Cool! I had a bunch of 'em myself, including an early Lamborghini. I was a lousy driver with 'em, though. Lots of fender-benders and worse. It got ugly...

so like is it like gurly of me to have cried when my rock em sock em guy head fell backwards and off all the time ... my brother never let me win

i loved lincoln logs and those green army men - you know the ones that came 100 in a bag and you lined them up and you rolled balls over them ... too cool ...

and the hot wheels that had that string that you pulled from the top ... way cool ...

ok so i had a barbie head ... and i loved her ....

< --- sissy

cause i loved playing jacks too and bat and ball

lol how intelligent does a child have to be to hit a ball with a string attatched to a wooden paddle ...

i was a tomb boy actually who climbed fences and wrestled in the neighbors grass and boxed and beat up guys that my friends were afraid of .... but ran away from girls who hit hard ...

go figure ...

i was so excited when i got my lite bright set and omg the easy bake oven was to die for ... especially when i baked my first german chocolate cake ...

oh sit and spin ... and the big wheel .....

lmao and the horse on the stick ... come on those over 30 know what i am talking about lol

soooo many great toys back then ...

would give a dollar to someone who could share their slinky ...

My mom bought me a slinky for christmas!!! I always go around singing the Ace Ventura *Everyone wants a Slinky..gotta have a Slinky* tune...so yeah..she is cool like dat! But I SO know how to share!
I loved my Operation game....sit n spin...the balls that you clanked together that were on the triangle shaped things that when you swung them around, they made a loud noise!?!(grr I dunno how to explain it any better than that)...koosh balls....the creek in my backyard....

ok bad childhood memory - falling down two steps with brand new skates on, so who told me to put them on while sitting up that high, my siblings did, mean mean people ....

See...I was and still am a cheater *holding my head in shame-evil grin* But I can't help it! I was the only girl in the family and I had too!
Monopoly made me angry...it took too long and yeah..that is about it!
Clue..now Clue was fun to me but only when I was playing with my younger brother because...I could cheat more easily!
