Misc Favorite Toys of the 80's? - Page 11

I marked my choices in the poll but LEGOS were my all time favorite. Every new edition would get mixed up in the big box I had. They're now for the nephew when he comes by the folks place.

Best toy ever!!!

This thing could be a bitch, they would send cars at you from all lanes and it was damn impossible to get away.

I can't find pictures online, but I really liked a toy that I think was called a "Jumping Jimmy". It was basically a tube with canvas over the top to jump on.

Another one might have been a GI Joe game. You shot darts out of your base at someone's else and if you hit a certain spot on the other guys base it would pop up and you had to try to get all 4.

There was also a thing were you typed in words and it said it back. I always thought it was funny to hear it say "Shit".

I also wish I could find this Play Doh toy called Monster House or something like that. They are hollow cone shapes with pictures of Dracula or Frakenstein on them. You stick playdoh up in them put them on some thing and pull the lever and it looks like they have hair growing. I'm sure my son would love it

It said on the toy not to shoot people or animals. The first thing I did when it came out of the box was shoot my brother and the dog.

I don't like bumping year old threads, however I finally found Mrs Pacman and Pacman in those Coleco handheld arcade games.

I still have some MISB/MOSC toys from the 80's: Power Punch He-Man, Triclops, Optimus Prime. That was back when shit was packaged in foam. ZERO package rage BS when getting it out of the box. Takes me 5 minutes to unpack a Barbie for my daughter using a balasong. I think that Prime may be worth a few hunert. Give it to my daughter... she loves that boy shit. She loves the Mego superheroes I gave her.
