What was your favorite toy as a kid? (1 Viewer)

[pennstater]

I would challange my toy against any of yours in a fight:

 

[Saints88]

G.I. Joes, Hot Wheels, Ninja Turtles, Micro Machines. It's hard to have a favorite but I guess I'd go with the G.I. Joes.

3 words.

Ninja. Motherfreaking. Turtles.

Gi Joe, Transformers and He-Man rank just behind. All 4 of these were on top of my favorite list at different stages of my childhood, but I probably loved the Turtles most.

Ninja Turtles, Hot Wheels and Rc Cars...

The 3 3/4 inch G.I. Joe figures from the 80s were my absolute favorite. Multiple points of articulation, cool weapons, tons of vehicles and playsets. Plus if I ever got bored with some of the figures, I could take them apart, mix and match some parts, and all of a sudden, I have a new character.

 

[Jonesy77]

Transformers and Legos

 

[Maxp]

Legos and firecrackers.

 

[ra]

Brownies.

 

[Kin Korn Karn]

Bike, Nintendo, Football, B-ball glove, GI Joe, Transformers.
In that order.

 

[pennstater]

Brownies.

Was there green sprinkles on top, or baked in?

Hot Wheels were my reason for living, followed closely by Star Wars Action Figures. I had other miniature cars (Matchbox, Fast Ones) but I was kind of OCD about mixing them in with my Hot Wheels cars... Aside from those, another one of my favorite toys was a game that not many people have heard of called "I Took A Lickin' From A Chicken" where you played Tic-Tac-Toe against a plastic chicken. ... All my friends loved to play it when they came over, but the chicken never failed to win. Maybe i just had stupid friends:

A burlap bag swing stuffed with other burlap bags to form a ball that hung on a rope about 40+ feet from a Live Oak limb at the farm. My sibs, cousins and friends spent hours under and in those old oaks

 

[primadox]

Oh, I'm dating myself...the Johnny West "Best of the West" toys (I hated dolls), and these:

We'd spend hours repainting those things; it's amazing that we didn't get high off of all the Testors paint we went through!

Oh, and lawn chairs with a ton of blankets to make our own forts...we didn't need any stinkin' video games to have fun.

My favorite was the box fan with a sheet over it.
