I was a real robot nut; had
hundreds of them. My favorite?
The one that would take a few
steps, stop, and begin firing
a machine gun that emerged
from his chest.

Today, they would cry about
the violence and gun aspect
and sensitive, mamby pamby
parents everywhere would lobby
to have it banned. They
should be shot.

Evil kenevil stunt bike with the hand winding stand. Best toy ever. and lego
Or Atari when it first came out I was so psyched. But nothing could bet those green army figures and a pack of firecrackers. Ahh what memories.

Alright, "Old School" relatively speaking in terms of a 23 year old, ya dig? I'd have to say I used to LOVE He-Man, shit i'd play with He-man, Skelator, Man-at-Arms (or whatever his name was), mossman, I had all of them. I remember asking my mom to sew me a little bed for He-man and She-ra to sleep in so I could make them do it. But thats just the tip of the iceberg. I used to play with GUTS, they were like "detailed" versions of green army men. they were so cool, they looked like the guys from that show tour of duty..very cool..oh and M.U.S.C.L.E. the orange little wrestlers? You gotta remember them..When you think about it, toys from back in the day, put the cheese toys of today to shame. I remember opening a G.I. Joe and being just flooded with just about every weapon you could imagine, Bazooka's, Knives, Machine Guns, Hand Guns, and those were just for the Medics! Kids today dont know what they missed. It was a good thing growing up in the 80's..A Damn good thing.

legos especially the space sets. I would build spaceships covered in guns. Also if you combined lincoln logs and the green army men you could put together one hell of a warzone.

I loved He-msn toys they were, awsome i had the medusa, the crab guy, the skeltor with the damage inflicted chest, the hairy orang guy, the huge fat guy, and the blood sucking guy they were awsome i loved those toys, if i only knew where they were, i remember i had this huge fight, with x-men toys vs he-man toys, and i had fake blood from a halloween it was a great fight bloody as hell such a damn good fight.

I also had these other toys that were cool, i forgot the name they were like bog bags or something, it was a little like 3-4 inch bacg that you would put in warm water. The water would start to bubble, and the bag would desintigrate, and a little toy, of a robot, alien and all these different creatures would be left they were also.

One last favorite, was the Bog Goblins they were like hand puppets of gobling they were so cool, and looked really twisted and realistic. thats all i can remeber as of now...damn they were better than the crap they have out now!
