This is a great thread.
I just read it now and it brought back a lot of memories. I'm glad it's back and didn't die.......yet!
I still have my Garbage Pail Kids. I remember wanting to go to the store every week and get more.
Anyone remember My Little Pony? My sister had these and I used to take them and hide them on her. They had different colored mains and tails that you could brush and one thing I thought about but never did was cut them off on her!
One toy of my sister's I always liked and played with was Vultron. It was five different colored lions that could join together into one large one. She had all five lions, black, green, yellow, red, and blue. I don't remember what they all signified but green was forrest (land), yellow was volcano, and blue was water. Vultron had started out as a cartoon.
I had Lionel trains permanently set up in the rec room downstairs to play with. I used to use my Matchbox, Hot Wheels, Corgi cars and even Legos on the train board. These Matchboxs were regular looking cars, no fancy paint schemes like today. I had a lot of "normal everyday" looking cars like station wagons, sedans, pick ups, vans, ect. I still have the trains, Legos, and Matchbox/Hot Wheels. Everything is packed away except for the trains which come out during the Christmas season to run around the tree.
I also used to play with the metal Tonka trucks I had outside. I had a dumptruck I would sit in and ride down the street. I no longer have these trucks, I gave them away to a cousin when I got older. I do have one funny story though with them. You know the sound a zipper makes in a clothes dryer? Well one day I decided to put the trucks in there to dry them off after they got wet being left outside. I'll leave it to your imagination what 3 metal trucks sounded like in there!
Wow, just think of the things you did as a kid.
