1960's TOPO GIGIO Nodder Bobble Head From Ed Sullivan Show I got this for my 7th Birthday and it got broken the same day
Dad was a mechanical engineer.... He figured I was ready for something I could take apart and put back together at the age of three. I wanted to be able to build something different with the pieces every time I had it apart.....
This was so much magic when I was 5 years old... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WaRnYNzQp5Y"]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WaRnYNzQp5Y
Hmmm... Agent Zero M Sonic Blaster is high on the list, still got mine and it still works -- and I've still got tinnitus in my right ear, too. The one that's gone now that I miss the most is my Tonka dump truck from when I was a kid and they were still made of steel and with real glass in the windshield. It burned up in a garage fire, but until then it was still completely intact.
I had a pedal car too... when I was about 7 years old I wanted to motorize it... Dad sold it right about then.
i really don't think i would use any of my old toy toys, plus i think most of them are still at my parents' house if i did want them. i do wish my old NES and sega genesis were still functional.
I loved my toys as no other kid and remember that when I was about 13 years old I couldn't imagine I'd put them away and head on full into puberty like I saw other kids do and was the common path to go. Now I don't feel like I have any use for my old toys myself anymore at all. I'd be happy to pass it all to another kid.
my Weebles tree house, Barbie and the clothes my grams made for her, my big wheel, my Lite-Brite... mom still has our Fisher Price sets! they were complete (we always put our toys away) until she let other kids play with them after we grew up
