Kenner was one of the goat toy makers. I think they got the rights to produce the original star wars toys. I saw a few original joints at Comic Con going for 15k-20k.

Legos, more specifically Tyco Super Blocks which were Legos too, I liked them better cuz you could make anything you wanted and not just 1 or 2 things like the Lego sets.
Super Nintendo and my super scope 6
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.
Before I show, let me tell…
My brother and I got laced one Christmas. We woke up to damn near every GI Joe figure that was out. We were so hyped! My Pops had to go to work in the days following Christmas and my brother and I were staying at my grandfather’s house during the day until school started up again. Paw paw as we called him lived in the hood. Bar across the street, candy lady next door just to set the scenery.
So one day we took all of our GI Joes over there and were outside playing all day. This lil dirty nikka from my Paw Paw’s hood decided to line us up that day. We had never seen this dude before but he seemed nice. Long story short we played all day. He was like…
“Y’all should leave the toys here so we can play again tomorrow.”
Our dumb asses:
“Okay. That’s cool.”
And we start packing up our men and vehicles to take them inside. This dude…
“Naw… leave em outside right here so tomorrow we can pick up where we left off.”
Us: “You sure? Somebody might take them.”
“Y’all straight. No one would do that around here.”
Us the next day:
I learned early not to trust new nikkas.
I was so scarred by that event that I had nightmares about it into my 20s. Keep in mind I saw someone die before in that same hood. His eye came out his head and everything, but being taken advantage of stuck with me more.
Couldnt tell me nothing when we was outside and everybody else had the secondary characters, had me feeling untouchable
