And how can you post a poll like this without legos?

I was thinking about toys that started in the 80's.

I guess we're both old, because whenever anybody mentions a favorite toy thread, that's the first thing that comes to my mind as well.

Kids five or so & under from any age can be entertained pretty easily, but *geezer voice* in my day we were having to spice that up with various action figures well past age ten lol.

The Sears catalog was a highly anticipated piece of mail for me as a kid. Most of me being a kid was in the 70s. I do remember Jone-sing over this. Although I never got it.

Still have that exact set. The engine had a place for a liquid that made smoke when running, and the Baby Ruth car had a barrel under it that rolled on the tracks with something granular inside it to make the chugga-chugga sound as it went along.

I got stuck with Lionel. Very nice Lionel on two 4x8 sheets of plywood.
Years later I sold it off to pay off a Toyota 4x4. Stupid. Wish I still had it
