Amazing how many of these toys I had.

I'd love to buy a complete set of Jarts for future use when I some day own a home and a yard :aok


they have to be in decent shape though, none of the plastic "feathers" cracked off like the set I remember playing with as a kid :D
I don't know what to put here yet.

SSP Smash-Up Derby was by far the coolest, though!:aok

Little Brother and I tore up all the baseboards in Mom's kitchen with those...lol

LOL

My parents made the fundemental mistake of making the set a "stocking gift"...we each had one we could play with as early as we liked as we were usually awake at 5.00am opening our stockings.

To this day I wonder why I got yelled at so much that morning.  What did they expect?

That handheld Mattel football game was the ****.  I bought the reissue when it came out a couple of years ago.

Hotbirds by Mattel were also one of my favorite toys as a kid.
