Your #1 GOAT TOY as a kid

[Monoblock]

I was a happy boy when this was under the Christmas tree

I had him too.

As A CHILD, not your favorite figurine or funco pop as an adult (no hate, but this is nostalgia)


My entry:

it was so fukkin badass…a jet, with a jet on TOP of it, it had a legit cockpit, and you could put three figures in the jets…and it was based on a real lockheed martin jet

10/10, lost my MIND that christmas

This shyt too rich for my upbringing.

OK I'm old and forgot I have to change my answer to Voltron easily. I had the tigers and the cars.

fukk no. If lights and motors work, and/or if you have a lot of the pieces, guns, accessories, you'll eat.

I sold all my He-Man stuff to a toy store without realizing what I had, and I found out I left a lot of money on the table. That's what made me sell everything else on eBay, and I treated it like a legit business. Doing research, knowing what accessories and shyt they came with. People would ask if certain things were original or reproductions because of how clean I got them

I worked at Mattel in 2015. Boys action figures specifically. This is a reminder that I need to sell all these toys I got. Especially the stuff from Comic Con that year. I sold the Arkham Asylum Batmobile a few years ago and that shyt it worth $350 now.

I had the car Voltron and was low key salty my folks didn’t get me the lions before they sold out. Spoiled lil nikka.

Damn I can’t even remember, once I got my first Sega Genesis I threw toys to the bushes.

same here breh. I was born in 83 but I couldn’t tell you much about my toys except the standard He-Man and TMNT action figures.

I could riff on my favorite NES and Genesis games all day tho.

 

[Kornball The Conqueror]

yea those beasst wars toys were 10/10 too

never could find optimus prime

 

[Mr Hate Coffee]

We gonna act like hot wheels didn’t have the game sewn up back in the day?

The commercial for the Tornado Twister was like GOAT level marketing. I begged for this shyt. Only to find out that this thing was loud as fukk and the cars wouldnt always successfully go through the loops. This was my first time ever being catfished.

Hot Wheels was notorious for that shyt. I remember the first commercials with the orange track and cars doing multiple loops. That shyt did NOT work like that in real life

Man when I was around 5 or so I had one of those big yellow Tonka dump trucks the ones made out of real metal not that plastic shyt I was like a damn construction worker all the rocks and random shyt I'd haul it in. I was devastated when it broke and all they had left to buy was the plastic ones.

YOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Funny you mention this. My mother came to my house a few weeks ago and guess what she brought and laughed about how much I loved these two.

Looking back yea I was a spoiled nikka. I would upload the photo of me getting my Nintendo for Xmas back in the day and losing my shyt but yea my Xmas' were the shyt. I even got Castle GreySkull one year with Prince Adam and He-Man/ Cringer, Battle Cat, and Orko

 

[old pig]

nikka I was a Thundercats fanatic and The Thundertank was it for me along with Panthro

Also JetFire was my favorite Autobot b/c he was the only one that could turn into a plane.

man I would’ve killed for the thundertank back in the day…shyt look so cheap now lol

OT but this post reminded me of a cool robotech toy my friend had growing up

I wanted to steal that shyt so badly…lemme see if I can find it

*edit*

lol it was the scott bernard toy…this shyt look cheap too in hindsight lmao

 

[old pig]

oh damn I had this joint too…straight up forgot about it…got bored of it real quickly tho…I had the red one

 

[Monoblock]

One set of toys I wanted was M.A.S.K.
That Camaro with the Gullwing doors

My friend down the street had JackHammer and he would never let me borrow that bytch.

 

[letti cook]

i had a giant Wolverine action figure that I took every god damn where

and that was a really dark time in my life, in hindsight...that action figure and Babyface "For the cool in you" cassette tape where all I had
