I saw Rock Em Sock Em Robots on the shelves again if you can believe it..Lol!..Except now it comes with interchangable blocks.Included was Al Gore,Osama,Saddam and GWB and a few others.

There were even addon blocks sold seperately(Micheal Jackson,Sylvester Stalone,Lance Bass,Trent Lott...etc)

A battery powered jeep-like toy called the Mighty Mike.

Crash-Bang-Smashem up cars.  You would pull this rip cord which made this wheel in the center go around.  The cars would smash and the doors, hood, and trunk would fly off.
Rock:  Ya see that Ensign, lighting the cigarette?
Powell: Yes Rock.
Rock: Well that's where I got it, he's my son.
Powell: Really Rock, well I'd like to meet him.
Rock:  No ya wouldn't.

Anyone else have a Big Wheel? I did so many handbrake turns in that thing the wheels ground away and collapsed.

They were post-elementary for me but Construx and Robotix were loads of fun. Hell I just realized me and my brother invented Robot Wars back in the 80's with that Robotix set.

-The vibrating football game. I used to love kicking field goals.
-Legos
-Model trains (my dad built a track on wood going around my room, with removable bridges across the door and closet) It was that medium scale, M if I remember right. Had the Lionel set for xmas time too but nowhere near as much track. When I grow up (never) i'm gonna build a lionel set to go from the garden behind my house to my deck and stuff, just like in the magazines.
-my bike!
-slot cars
-sleds for winter fun
-fising rod for the pond we lived on
-8' net for catching turtles
-tree fort (isnt a toy but might as well have been)
-wiffleball bat and hockey sticks

damn, i'm nearly 21 but thinking back to those days makes me feel much much older.

Didn't have many toys growing up so my favorite would have to be the the ball and bat that I was born with.

Now a days my wife is my Fav-o-rite Toy!
I have been reborn a new man!

Notice I never said a better man.

Gotta be LEGOs

I had many sets, plus a big box of miscelaneous parts. I used to build many boats, cause when I was a kid I liked boats more than planes. Not having mnay boat parts to make the hull, I'd have to improvise, and the result would be a boat with a stepped hull. I wanted that big pirate ship, but it was too expensive and I never got it. Good thing though, as it let me use my own imagination in using the parts I had.
Next fav toys were Ninja Turtles Action Figures. April was so cute :)

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
