Tell us about your favourite toys!

[Barbas]

What toys did you used to own as a child that had a special place in your heart? I used to have some Hot Wheels cars and a set of Brio trains and tracks. This train here was my favorite:

Spoiler: Mallard.

Oh yeah, just lookit that streamlined sumbitch. Hot.

I used to have a Micro Machines set as well:

Spoiler: Let me show you my van of wonders.

It unpacked into this:

Spoiler: Freaking sweet.

I had some other military sets, like a submarine, that opened up into a radical base. Then there was the Star Wars and Star Trek collections:

Spoiler: Pew pew. Space.

...Oh yeah, I had some Beanie Babies and stuff too. That was cool. [small]Mmm...fuzzy.[/small]

So, what did you used to own and love?

Pretty much transformers (G1) for me!

Seriously a few of my earliest childhold photo was me holding onto a airplane transformers (I can't remember which one it was)! What can I say? I am a huge fan of transformers even to this day!

I had all kind ranging from G1, G2, Beast Wars and a couple of the modern ones awell.

Runner up would be Bionicle althought I was in my teen when they came around but they are still awesome toy to have and with a fantastic story to boot!

I was hooked on Battle Beasts figurines as a kid. I loved the fact that each one was part of a faction (fire/water/wood/air or something).

I loved to set them up into old house toys and invent war scenarios with plastic soldiers, etc.

I had a famicon, basically an NES.
Loved that thing to bits, so many fun games.

Spoiler

Aside from that I loved Bionicles, especially the Bohrok line. Man they were awesome.

Probably my Gameboy and Pokemon red. I took that thing everywhere with me. Even now, I can quite happily walk out of the house without my phone, but woe betide if I forget to bring a handheld console with me. The Nintendo3DS is my current console of choice.

(oh, those kind of toys..ok)


I didn't really have any toys when I was a kid.
I only remember a couple of stuffed animals I used to sleep with.

I was mostly reading comic books or out exploring in the forests.

I got a NES when I was a bit older though. I think I was about 10.
I squeezed those controllers until my hands were rectangular. Good times.
Then I got a computer (13 y.o maybe).
A beast of a machine with 133mhz processor, 64mb ram and a turbo button ^^.

I still haven't stopped playing with my "toys". ,)

 

[Able Seacat]

I had a fair few beat wars transformers;

Spoiler

And some crash bandicoot toys as well that would break way too easily

Spoiler

No idea where they are now. In an attic somewhere most likely.

 

[Silvanus]

I played with Playmobil more than anything else. I had complex plotlines with all my knights, and a Centurion was leading the "good" knights because I didn't realise it wasn't a knight when I was likkle.

Some awesome pieces I had, too. A crystalline prison thingy, a dragon, a sea serpent.

 

[NoMercy Rider]

I used to looove Mighty Max toys. Basically they were monster faces that opened up to reveal a miniature dungeon with mini-figs and traps.

Spoiler: Closed Mighty Max Examples

Spoiler: Opened Mighty Max Example

Probably my favorite toy, counted in sheer number of years, would be this rabbit hand puppet I've had since birth. It was a gift to my parents from someone they can't remember. There's no manufacturer's tag, no care instructions. Checking inside shows that it's been made by hand. I believe the body is constructed of wool.

And here it is:

Spoiler: Rabbit

I never did give it a name or assign it a gender.
