You know....I was reading the Evil Kenevil thread and they were talking about toys they had as a kid. What's your favorite toys as a kid?
Mine had to be my Mrs. Beasley doll, and the doll where you can pump out her hair. Thing is my damn sister cut all the dolls hair off and gave her a mohawk. After that I would say my favorite toy was my FLAMING STAR record of Elvis Presley, believe it or not.
I have a few others, but I gotta get going to work....just a few thoughts for the day

Mine was a Teenage Mutant ninja turtles puppet. They where fantastic mind you So was the cartoon. Ahh I love remembering about kick ass cartoons I watched when I was younger.
Rumour has it that Van Halen have continued in recent years with a new lead signer, but since there 1985 breakup, nobody involved has ever recaptured that spontaneous cheeseburger magic!

Does anyone remember that Chuck Berry song "My dingaling?"
My Ding-A-Ling-A-Ling
When I was a little biddy boy
My grandma bought me a cute little toy
Two Silver bells on a string
She told me it was my ding-a-ling-a-ling
My Ding-A-Ling My Ding-A-Ling won't you play with My Ding-A-Ling
My Ding-A-Ling My Ding-A-Ling won't you play with My Ding-A-Ling
When I was little boy In Grammar school
Always went by the very best rule
But Evertime the bell would ring
You'd catch me playing with my ding-a-ling
Once while climbing the garden wall,
Slipped and fell had a very bad fall
I fell so hard I heard birds sing,
But I held on to My ding-a-ling
Once while swimming cross turtle creek
Man them snappers right at my feet
Sure was hard swimming cross that thing
with both hands holding my dingaling
Now this here song it ain't so bad
Prettiest little song that you ever had
And those of you who will not sing
must be playing with your on Ding-a-ling
Yep. thats the one. Thats what this thread made me think of.
my favorite toy had to be a girl named Maria that lives across the street.
other than that had to be Star Wars figures...
Bah, there was only 1 toy that met the eye:
[SIGPIC][/SIGPIC]
Fisher Price Little People
"Monkey" doll that my grandma made out of socks (I dragged that thing around by the tail until the tail fell off)
Sit n' Spin (probably the reason I eventually got into drugs)
Click-Clacks (big glass balls on strings that you smashed together until they shattered and caused great bodily injury)
My bike - it had a banana seat, ape hanger handlebars with streamers and a great big basket on the front. Funniest thing I ever saw (to this day) was my dad riding it down the driveway, trying to teach me how, getting a little cocky, popping a wheelie and going flat on his back.
There was also this ride on toy I used to have, but I can't remember what it was called. It was round and had big wheels on the sides that you would turn with handles. If you turned them in the opposite direction of each other, you would go around in circles. Anybody remember this?
I'll think of more....

It worked great on sidewalks...I went all over the place on that damn thing. The best thing was taking it over to the elementary school on the weekends and just riding all over the whole school.Originally posted by twonabomber

and of course at about 10 years old...ATARI, still have it and it still works!
My favorite toy was an orange I had one xmas, It was all i received apart from an old penny.
Anyway the orange was just fantastic until the second kick , when it just disintegrated so we had to abandon our game of football .
Dejected I got home to find the shoebox we lived in had been repossesed and me old man had nicked me penny to go out on the piss .
Nah, it wasn't a Green Machine. It didn't have sticks, it had big wheels on the sides with handles on them.Originally posted by DLRoswegony

I loved my big wheel.....that thing was so fucking loud. Them hard plastic wheels would just piss the neighbors off to no end when I blasted it down the driveway at 7 o'clock saturday morning.
You'd use that emergency brake and do the powerslides...the wheels would get holes in e'm.
I remember this fat kid getting on one of 'em and just crushing it...he was stuck in it and I just wailed on him. That still pisses me off....fucking fatties.
was it a Crazy Wheel?
Damn, I forgot about those things!Originally posted by Figs

I also loved HotWheels, with the orange tracks, I wish I kept my hotwheels, they would be worth something now, that and old hockey cards....Nowadays I see kids that age riding around in moterized-wheel ATV's, kinda makes me sick, we used peddle power....

G.I.Joe figures of course.
Between my younger brother and I, we must have had over 100 figures and vehicles.
Too bad I have just a couple left. Probably would have been worth a fortune.
My friend had one of these...
We were poor & I couldn't afford oneI was SO jealous :eek: I could have killed that motherfucker
but i don't think it affected me in later years...just don't let me near guns or sharp objects, Muhahahahahaha!
YES!!!! That's it!! Thanks Figs!Originally posted by Figs

I loved that damn thing.
I think it was someone's blog about childhood.
my cousin and i had the old-school Joes...kung-fu grip, Jeeps, howitzers, helicopters, the friggin' works. our moms made us give that shit away...every now and then we yell at them about it. same with our Evel Knievels.Originally posted by Warham

My favorite toy as a child was my cock.

Do any of you older folk remember the "Verti-Bird"?
It was this little helicopter on a tether from a base, it went in a circular motion...you could make it hover, go forward and back and also pick up objects.
It was made by "Mattel", sorry I can not supply an image.
I actually found a similar toy at Kay-Bee Toys (a knock off, obviously) 2 years ago that I gave to some friends my age...I'm still getting thank-you's for it!
Terrific thread, by the way.
