Such a child of the 70's...

Tinker toys and Lincoln logs, Sit and Spin (I was always easily amused), Tiddly Winks, only a couple actual Barbies but also just about every other cheesy doll that from the era....Sunshine family, Wonderwoman, Six Million Dollar Man and Bionic Woman, Donnie and Marie (oh yes, they had dolls!).  I still have them too. *g*

And I always liked to color with crayons...still do that. [:)]

LOL luci, I totally agree. I was the same with Wonder Woman and her lasso of truth. Part of me was always a bit disappointed that she didn't torture them for a bit when she had them all bound up. Sigh. She had those great boots and rarely used them as they should be used. I kind of thought Dudley was slightly sadistic myself. He always had those inane little conversations with Nell as she was bound to the tracks, train looming ever closer before finally releasing her.
[:D]...so true.  When you put it like that, Dudley does come across as pretty sadistic.  And, i had my own naughty thoughts about Wonder Woman..........luci

DomMeinCT -> RE: Favorite Toys From Your Childhood (5/7/2007 6:55:52 PM)

Not sure of the name of the toy - Skip-it? - you wore around your ankle and skipped as you swung it around...mine had a bell on the end.

Also, my woodcarving set, with all different tools for various carving effects.



JerseyKrissi72 -> RE: Favorite Toys From Your Childhood (5/7/2007 6:59:36 PM)

I remember that skip it toy ..it was popular there for quite awhile....what was that ball you use to sit on and bounce up and down on?? I always loved my skateboards bein a tom boy and all...

My spaceman helmet with a big orange dome on it, and the full-size gi joes with equipment that really worked.

really young - my barbie with her camping van - spent hours playing with that.  i hated dolls in general, meaning the ones you pretended were real infants, or the frilly ones that looked pretty and you had to keep on a shelf [:'(]


OMG yes *s* I wore out my Barbie camper van, I just loved that thing. I hate the baby dolls as well, even as a kid I think my biological clock came without batteries. But I did love Barbies.. I had all four KISS dolls in the 70's *s* I still have them but they are in pretty nasty shape.

I loved my inch worm, it was a big green thing that you could ride on, my Sesame Street walking letters-kind of an early spelling game and  light brite

Mine had a plastic lemon *s* it was  alot of fun.

Rob had crash-up derby cars and the Evil Kneivel stunt cycle. Last year I found a stunt cycle just like the one he had on Ebay and got it for him.

Toys I liked best:
etch-a-sketch
the skip toy (I can't remember it's proper name either)
pogo stick
marbles - trading, barginning, playing (yep, I was a tom boy ... lol )

This is not a toy, but it was childhood fun ....... [:)]

The apartment building we lived in had these deep outside stairwells that led to the basements - we (my older brothers and our friends) used to fill them up with leaves to the top and then jump in! Another building we lived in (verra old) had coal shutes from the outside of the building down to the basement, we used to slide down them. In fact, I have a scar on my knee from hitting the coals as I exited the shute!  Man it was such "scary" fun! LOL

Word! You look at Legos now, and they're like, four pieces... hardly any little square blocks at all. What's with that? [:'(]

So where are my other children of the 80s? i can't believe we have no love for Transformers here?

And of course, i was all about the toy cars... Matchbox, Hot Wheels, Revell model kits, remote controlled cars... i think my favorite was a giant Tonka replica of a Blazer or Bronco that was big enough for me to ride on, and my grandfather machined a set of side pipes and velocity stacks for it [:D]



velvetears -> RE: Favorite Toys From Your Childhood (5/8/2007 9:03:28 AM)

[:(] No one mentioned Mr Potato head - that you had to use real potatos with as well



ElectraGlide -> RE: Favorite Toys From Your Childhood (5/8/2007 9:40:54 AM)

B.B. guns, bikes, kites, building and launching model rockets. Anything outdoors was great.



KatyLied -> RE: Favorite Toys From Your Childhood (5/8/2007 9:52:06 AM)

Betsy McCall cutouts.  My grandma subscribed to McCalls and I would get my fix from her.  I had boxes full of cutouts, she was my favorite.  I also loved my Barbies, I would play for hours and I held on to them for a long time, long after my mom asked me to give them up.  I didn't have the Dream House, but my neighbor did, so it was fun.
