| Woo hoo! I'm still a big kid for sure.  I loved action figures; especially Star Wars, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, and Masters of the Universe.  Also, my brother & I loved Legos, Brio Mech, Lincoln Logs, and all things construction. We still love Legos, in fact. As far as the "games," Hungry Hungry Hippos was awesome. So were Connect Four, Hi Ho Cherry-o, Sorry!, The Game of Life, Perfection, and Boggle (Junior, in this case.)My brother is eleven years older than I, and I inherited all his cool stuff. :cool: |

| Oh yeah! Tinkertoys, Barbies, Viewmaster, Easy Bake Oven, and especially Spirograph. (Thanks for the photo Jewelsy!) Had a good collection of comic books but my Mom sold them in a yard sale. Luckily she didn't get her hands on my hockey cards. And my parents still have our Kerplunk, Avalanche, and Hats Off that my nieces and nephews now enjoy. I always wanted Lego, but my Mom said it was too expensive so I used to go to my friend's house after school so I could play with her brother's Lego. And I still collect Trivial Pursuit editions.

| Great thread SG.  My all time favorite was probably Tyco slot cars. My friends and I would spend hours playing with those. I also liked: GI Joes Adventure People Leggos Lincoln logs Girder and Panel - (samre concept as lincoln logs except they were plastic girders that you built buildings with) Remote control cars The last time my daughter was at my Dad's house, he dug out my old Lite Brite and Lincoln logs for her to play with.

| Viewmaster was fun  I still remember that a disk with Humpty Dumpty was my all time favorite.I liked paper dolls better than Barbies (I categorized Barbies as "too princess like" for me ), I drew them clothes myself and we exchanged them between girlfriends. Also what is fun to see back on market is My Little Pony. They were my little sisters thing, but I did sew clothing for them all the time.We had quite a bit Lego's and I liked those a lot. My best friend had a whole Lego city build on an old dining room table. That was the coolest thing At some point I remember doing some neverending number of those shrinky dinks. My older son (5) would probably love that right now. And one Christmas I got the Brio loom to weave tiny rugs for my doll house. Of games I really liked Labyrith, that balancing a ball through a maze thing.

Yeah, they hurt. My daughter tends to leave hers all over the floor, so I know from experience.
