I walked through a Toys R Us yesterday

And fuckin' a did I get a blast from the past. I nearly shat myself with excitement when I got to the Hot Wheels section. What toys do you guys miss from when you were younger?

 

Ninja Turtles, G.I Joe, and LEGO the most

PS- Great thread!

My whole life I've wanted the Ghostbusters' car. That thing was AMAZING!

 

jacks
yo-yo
skip-it
bop-it
polly pocket
pretty pony
magna doodle

 

I played with sticks a lot too.

and dinky cars!

 

Action Man and Turtles

and my sooty puppets. Everybody really did think I was a camp little child

 

I liked Trolls. Everyone had them on top of their pencils, I miss them.

Oh and Care Bears.

 

Holy fuck the ninja turtle pizza shooter. I spent hours of my childhood shooting mini plastic pizzas at family members. Can't do that shit with an iPod touch.

 

You're damn right you can't! That thing ruled! I use to shoot it at EVERYTHING!

 

i had power ranger action figures, they were probably the coolest real toy i had. my dad would build stuff (he did construction) and bring me back all the small pieces and sand them or let me sand them into blocks and i could build mini things.


one time for christmas i think i got motorized cars
and i was driving them over my head and i got them both stuck, not at the same time either. about 10 minutes apart. my dad took them out with a hammer.

 

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles
Power Rangers
Nerf Guns
AND:

 

I had a bop-it that got stuck on pull it......took me a couple years to figure that one out

 

Ha, I used to play Power Rangers with my friends at school! We'd run around fighting and saving each other

 

I'm not ashamed to say it, Pokemon. I fucking loved Pokemon. Didn't know shit about the game but I collected the cards

 

LMAO! I was gonna say Pokemon in my first post but was too ashamed! But since you came forward first I shall follow. I fuckin loved Pokemon fiedishly! I still have the games and the cards in my closet

 

I had a pokedex. You know, in case I ran into any pokemon on the way to school

 

LMFAO! So did I! It was awesome! I've actually looked online before, my card collection is worth about $200 - $275.

 

The Millennium Falcon

 

lol my friend and i had them too

and we loved them.

video games in general were my fav toys.
i did have some toys are they are too oddball to find on google to even know the name of them. I had this one robot and he had a bunch of different compartments and buttons and switchs. it was cool. and then i had this one "teddy bear", but it looked like a dog enough to put quotes around 'teddy bear'. it had long arms and legs, and wasnt either a bear or dog so idk.

 

Oh no! It's MAN BEAR PIG!

 

You needed a pokedex. Professor Oak never answered his fucking phone

Shiiit! I wish I remembered where my cards are I think they're somewhere in storage in America haha.
