1.
Big Track. Rememeber this little gem? You could program in commands and make it move down you hallway and turn left. (ish). Anyway a lot of fun.
2.
Evel Kenievel Toothbrush. You know you wanted one. If you did have one you probably spent more time "jumping" your sink than brushing your teeth. Explains some of my cavities.
3.
Stretch Armstrong. Hell yeah, tell me you didn't open him up to see what he was made of. that weird gooey crap, not quite liquid, not quite solid.
4.
Merlin. Looked more like some kind of futuristic communicator than a handheld game. Good for playing Tic-Tac-Toe.
5.
Gi Joe. Now I was big into the GI Joes. I had ALL of them. This included the Jeep, the headquarters, this rocketship. They suck nowadays but back than they were the bizzomb. Could explain my career choice.
6.
Mattel Football. The first of the handhelds to come with "Awesomeness"
7.
Atari 2600. Bow down to your God. The big daddy of consoles. The super numerator of gaming. Give it up to the King.
8.
The Huffy Cheater Slick. Yes I did get outside back in the day, and when I did, I did it on a Huffy. Mine was Red and faster than greased bullets. At least it seemed that way to me at the time.
So anyway, those are a few of the cool toys I had as a kid. What do you remember from you childhood?
