Default Toys Growing Up?

What are some toys that take you back to your childhood memories? After the Oldschool rap thread, it reminded me of living in the 80s. Here is what I remember playing with.

Transformers
MASK
GI Joe
Thundercats
Voltron
He Man
Muscle Men-had hundreds of these I would trade with friends
Garbagepail Kids-still have all of mine..couple hundred of em'
Knight Rider
Dukes of Hazzard
ATARI
Nintendo NES
Hotwheels of course

Action figures, of allllll shapes and sizes. Had ninja turtles, batman, XMEN, etc. Also, some of the COOLEST figures were the crash dummies ones that broke apart when you push the button on them. I even had the motorcycle. BUT I have to say, my fav toy as a kid was Lego's, hands down. That and hotwheels.

Only toys I really had were my bicycles. I was really into the BMX Freestyle back in the dizay.

Here is me Circa 1986.



Any of you geezers wanna guess what that trick was called and what kind of bike I was on?

AND YES, IT WAS PINK!!

Actually, pink was the cool points back in the day. :shifty:
I even had Pink and Purple Van's. I was the first to have them. Within 6 weeks, everyone had them. I was a trend setter.

20 years later and I still wear Van's, just Blue now.
