I had Three best toys, scratch that four. number one, big wheel.....Man you could hit that break and sling your arse around like the tires were made of teflon. Had a blast with that thing, number two, The big bellybutton ship from space 1999. sucker was about 4 foot long and had a removable front for a little spacecraft. Probably that strongest toy I ever had. Third was not model rockets, just the engines, you could glue the little guide tube to the engine and let me go, no telling where they would go.
Lastly and probably the most fun was shotgun shells. My dad reloaded so we always had some around. Used to tape marbles to the end with the primer, throw em in the air and run like hell. Its a freaking miralce im still alive, cause i wasnt that fast;) As a teen a friend loaded up some rock salt rounds and we paced of 100yds and shot at each other. Rock salt stings and leaves huge marks............nuff said
