holster and cowgirl outfit.

I think she meant KIDS toys

I used to have a Chrissie doll. You could yank on her hair and make it longer or turn a dial in her back and make it shorter. Somedays I wish I could do that to my own hair!

I was just thinking about this the other day. Does anyone remember 2XL it was a robot that had big almost 8 track size tapes you would play? It was a robot ? I used to love it! Also, Stop Thief a board game that had a little handheld computer thingie that you entered where the thief was???

Clackers!!

 

[Aurora63]

I had a Big Wheel. Don't know if it's vintage or not. Definetly a 70's/80's thing.

I also remember having one of those "Mr. Wiggles" toys. It was basically a water balloon shaped into a tube. It eventually broke all over me!

I also loved this game, until my mother confiscated it, that is. We would have BIG fights whenever we played it, but it was so fun:

Here's another favorite!

Clackers!!

Oh my God! Remember how you used to WACK the crap out of your wrists when you first tried to use them? But yet, you'd try and try again. And you never failed to injure yourself or someone nearby. I loved those things!

Nowadays, the clackers are for wusses. Instead of string, the balls are on plastic sticks that wack back and forth. No fun without the bruising and pain. Now THAT made it a challenge!

My favorite was a Corgi Chitty Chitty Bang Bang car. Plus, my set of Hot Wheels and Matchbox cars. And that orange track thing you'd clip to a bookshelf or windowsill. Fun stuff!

Super Jock Football

 

[lovetheparks]

Loved my Willie Water Bug (sprinkler you attached to a hose) and also a doll that I can't remember the name for love nor money- she was a ballerina with dark hair (cabbage patch kid size) and when you pushed the crown on her head she'd spin. Love that doll!!

 

[Stitch Inside]

Evel Knievel, crank him up and run him into things.

 

[live4christp1]

Lincoln logs and Tinker Toys

 

[Laurajean1014]

I think it was called "my ballerina."

She was dressed in all hot pink and had blonde hair and blue eyes. If you lifted her crown, she spun around.

I never should have thrown her out, I miss her till this day.

Only toy I connected to.

My favorite was a Corgi Chitty Chitty Bang Bang car. Plus, my set of Hot Wheels and Matchbox cars. And that orange track thing you'd clip to a bookshelf or windowsill. Fun stuff!

My DBIL had (we still have) a Chitty Chitty Bank Bank car. It is in storage now, but in good condition. His other favorite was a Green Machine.

Do you remember when you had to use a real potato with the Mr. Potato set. Those where the days.

I think she meant KIDS toys

I was a kid. I had that when I was five years old!!

 

[trappednabox]

UGH! your making me long from my inch worm! It killed me when it broke. I was almost as heart broken as when my bunny hop record melted in the car!
