Poll: Can you remember your favourite childhood toy?

[Insert Comedy Here]

While taking a sledgehammer to the remnants of my youth, I stumbled upon an old stuffed bear, a Ye Olde Bear that my grandmother had passed down to me.
It had been sitting at the back of my room for donkey's years, and I was amazed at how it had stood up.
It was pretty large, about the size of a toddler, and only slightly dusty. I picked him up and placed him away, before casually removing everything else.
Later when I came to tag and bag the casualties of my purge, I found myself looking into the slightly faded brown eyes of the bear again.
Not only was he my favorite childhood abuse monkey, he was an anchor to the better, innocent times.


So, Escapists, can you still remember you're favorite childhood toy? Do you still have it? Has it reserved it's right to be handed on to your offspring? And do you know why it's still there?

Yes a Beaver called Berty. He was awesome. I miss my beaver.

 

[Noamuth]

I've still got two of mine. They sit on the top shelf of my bookcase with my other plushies.

>.>

Anyway. It's my 'Leo the Lion' Beanie Kid, accompanied by my soft Yoshi toy. I don't plan on passing them on to anyone.

.. I've got the feeling I'm forgetting one, but those are the two that I still have that spring to mind. ^.^

 

[Skeleon]

I still have it.
'Tis a deformed plush crocodile (named Kroko, yeah, really creative) that was my favorite toy in kindergarten. When my family moved away, they gave it to me as a going-away-present.
Currently collecting dust on the top shelf of a cupboard.

LEGOs and my GameBoy Pocket. Still have the LEGOs, lost the Pocket...

 

[goatzilla8463]

I have so many plushies.

Now, I'm embarrassed.

I never really gave my bear a name, he was always Ye Olde Bear.

But in the spirit of reconnection, he is now Master Yale O. Bear.

I remember having a plush dolphin and an otter. I can't remember if I named them or not.

Bionicles. Oh God how I loved those! I could be so creative on those, and would get praised for it all the time. I still have all my legos (Except for losing the occasional piece), and play with them if I'm in the mood. I'm always happy when I'm with them...
And I don't think Bionicles can be passed down. It's like loosing a phone: You can get a new one, but it won't be the same.

Thanks, I like the new Red Lucario as well.
Started reading the comic and got hooked, it's too bad it's over, yes, but we can look forward to a new series sometime soon.

A toy AK-47. We lived on a farm with boulders and fields and everything. I used to run around vaguely reenacting bits of war footage I'd seen on TV.

 

[IxionIndustries]

I used to have so many god damned LEGO's that it wasn't even funny. I would make whole cities of buildings out of them. Each day I'd wake up, I'd have an epileptic seizure just by looking at the 7 foot spanning city of colors sprawled out on my bedroom floor.

I have so many plushies.

Now, I'm embarrassed.

You and I are in the same boat..

Damnit, now I'm emberassed..

Not sure. It's called After Birth I think.
