still have them all... inside a big black garbage bag tucked into the deepest closet in my basement. base call cards, xmen, batman, and ninja turtles figures, a broken tranformer firetruck, some legos, green army men troops, and my all time favorite, a plastic gun that shoot mini discs. i used that alot in my budding days to shoot birds/squirrels although i would miss all the time.

I still have some Transformers, Teenage mutant Ninja Turtles, Legos, and some X-Men figures. In addition, I have a huge collection of Star Wars Power of The Force figures back when I still collected toys.

Definately so. I think i can still find my tranformable valkyrie macross toys if I look hard enough. Never threw away any of my toys, though some are in China right now since I only brought a few over to the states for memory's sake. I might even be able to find some ultraman figurines lying around.
Mostly though, I have all my old comics with me. A thick saint saiya multi-volume thing that I bought when I was eight, and some doraemon mangas too. DC and Marvel-wise, I have that cross-over series too. (The one where they had amalagrams (sp?) and this kid fused angel from x-men with robin, and a bunch of other stuff. Kinda cool.)

Yes, I some of them still left at my home. And I am quite sure my mother has also some of them still left in the boxes. I found my old alien figure a while ago, I just had to put it out in the sight of everyone. Now it is in my bookshelf.

I only have two toys left from when I was a kid. One is a bean bag guinea pig stuffed animal from when I was about 1 or 2 years old that somehow survived and followed me through my various moves, buried away in random boxes. It probably hasn't seen the light of day since I was about 6 or 7. I have decided to keep it and pass it on to my kids when I get around to having some. I also have an old 15" tall transformable SDF-1 from Macross made by BanDai in 1984. I kept that one just because it was kind of cool. :)

Woohoo!. Childhood toys... ^^ This bring me good and bad memories. :)
I'm lucky to still have all of my toys close to me. Well, they are in a big box stored in the storage cupboard I have in my room. This were my favourites:
-The full collection of the "Saint Seiya" Golden and Bronze Saints + others. :p
-Lots, I MEAN, lots of huggable teddybears and similar ones, specially my favourite BIG Tiger and Adorable Turtle teddies. :o
-Some table games like "Hotel", "Atmosphear", "Monopoly", etc.
-Nintendo and Super Nintendo console and videogames... :D
I still have them because they are great mementos to my childhood.
Shared with my schoolfriends...

I had a lot of He-Man action figures....but i don't have them anymore :(
The action figures didn't survive that long when i was around (pulling on the legs until the leg fell of).
I also had several GI Joe action figures and several female action figures (She-ra and Teela, which were my favorites).
I always pretended that i was Cheetara btw, swinging with my flute, thinking it was Cheetara's bo staff/stick :P
I never had a cheetara action figure...because my parents never bought me one nya.

Ah, now where are my G.I. Joe, ghost busters, and other toys I have are. Probably in a box at my old place back in Thailand (I lol I brought them back there from America when I was 7, all of them)
I remember the last time I played with my G.I. Joe toys quite well.
Ah the memories...

Well I still have all mine..I think my prize possessions are my X-men trading cards from '82. I recently looked up how much some of these cards were worth and found some worth more than $100..so I guess I have my own personal investment for a rainy day if i ever need it.

I have everything... I do not like to get rid of stuff... mom wants me to get rid of most of it... since we're having a garage sale soon... and she wants me to do it... even though it is against my will
NvadrApple
05-25-2005, 06:28 PM
Nah, I sold most of it. I have a few figures that I couldn't bear to part with, but besides that, I don't have enough room for it all!
I do still have my blanky from when I was really little though...heehee...it is hidden away in a very secret place because of course no one else knows I still have it! :p

Well I don't have them with me now, but they're stored in the roof of a house my dad own's.
The world I created with my fantasy out of Legos, Turtles and who knows what all. The essence of all my childhood dreams - stored in to little space never to be seen again
- now I'm depressed. :(

I got some he man and she-ra dolls, a giant stuffed starlight plush (from rainbow brite I think), some voltron toys, a bunch of ninja turtle action fitures. a ton of legos and waffle blocks...and almost all of my power ranger toys in near mint condition (although i wasnt really a "child" anymore when I got those...hee ^_^;;)
Bubblemonkey
06-21-2005, 11:52 PM
I don't really have anything from my childhood any more. We moved around a lot, so we ended up gettin rid of a lot of stuff to save on packing. Those irreplacables (of which toys aren't included unfortunately) are all at my parent's place. All of my toys went to my cousins who are less fortunate than we were, so that's cool. I do wish I could go back and play with them a bit, though.

Umm, for some reason I still have a few of my teddy bears... Whenever friends come over they rearrange them into ecchi positions though :( I gave away pretty much everything else. I mostly had books instead of toys anyway, and I still have all those.

I'm trying to get somebody from the higher up's to stick this topic and to get Hongfire's members out here so we could actually do this instead of waiting around for stuff to happen, i.e., waiting for the torrents to come back.

I still have my very first teddy bear, if that counts as a toy.
I do have one or two soft toys from my childhood lying around, and also the friction toy rocket I got from the Hong Kong Science Center long ago (you wheel it around quickly and sparks appear in the windows). Most of the space in my room is now anime-related stuff though. :)

Aaah, toys. I still have all my Playmobil sets! (at my parents' house half way across the world, in boxes) I love those things! Where's the Playmobil love :( I would buy more if they weren't so freaking expensive!
I have a couple of Lego sets as well, also in boxes. I think I had a couple of action figures too. I just hope my parents didn't get rid of them...

I have a few lying around I'm sure, but one that stands out in my mind is my old Armatron (http://www.beautifulstuff.org/images/Armatron.jpg) I found one time in some random shop, I can't even remember my reason for visiting. I saw a lumpy mass of bubble-wrap on the top of one of the shelves near the back of the store and asked what it was. I can't remember what exactly I said when he took it down and I saw it was some sort of robotic arm but it was probably along the lines of OH MY GOD WHAT IS THIS AMAZING DEVICE I MUST HAVE IT. It worked fine when I took it home and was the envy of all my friends for weeks.
Best $15 I ever spent.
I don't have any toys from my childhood,my parents and I trow them away.
The only thing with standed from my childhood is a TeddyBear,which I got on my 4 birthday,and now it stands on my bookshelve.

Ahh, I can't let go of my childhood. I have a lot of my games, including my Super Nintendo and oldschool Game Boy games. I also own several bins worth of Legos, but they're all at home :D I used to be an avid spaceship builder; methinks I need to haul some Legos over here at the dorms and build a starfleet :p
...I'm such a geek XD
@SA: Spaceships were my absolute favourite subject to build too! ^_^
I built several ships and made one amazing craft that even had an escape pod
attached with a magnet. Then I built some simpler ones and played around with
them, putting the "hero" in the cool spacecraft and the villains in the simple
ones. :p I never used the schematics that came with the boxes as I preffered
to build my own things from scratch. ^_^
i have all my legos with me, the only toys i still have a passion for are legos
but my lego system bricks are mostly stored and untouched, but i smash around with lego technic pieces, old slizer remnants and bionical parts. i make my own mechs which are around the same size as most 1/60 scale gundam models.
i make really sophisticated mechs, with 20+ degrees of freedom, ive been modifying 2 of my favourites since the slizer theme was introduced probably around 1999. the 2 mechs are able to perform any human movement, yoga poses etc, except no fingers and toes lol.
not sure if anyone understands anything about this post lol
@C.A: Sounds cool. You should post some pictures in the 'Creative Corner'. ^_^

I have so many stuffed toys...i can't let go of some of them LOL...i remember cleaning and giving some of them away..i gave away at least 5-6 large garbage bags of stuffedtoys!....the ones i've kept were the collector-type ones i.e. Disney ones (i have this huge Liong King collection lol), TY Beanie babies..omg i have like 100+ of them..., and the ones that have some sort of memory attached to them..
i also still have all my lego pieces and my old school nintendo...
i have too much stuff in my room..i dun even have room to put up all my anime figurines (they're all stacked in their boxes in a corner of my room lol)
my brother has kept all his old school star wars figurines and G.I. JOE/He-man?/transformers toys all stored in a huge box....he's 31 and he's got light sabers and darth vader's mask..and other stuff in his own room lol

Hmm... got an old Nes (still might work, have no idea), the old GB (lost the battery cover, but it still works ^__^; ), and the rest of it my little brother has them. Though I still see the little cars that I use to play around with when I was 6-8 years old on the floor occasionally XD.

02-14-2006, 05:03 PM

PrinceKr85
02-14-2006, 05:06 PM
lol... that's a common problem with the models with the "door" on them... the revision model that they released fixed that problem.. it's a hardware problem really....
for childhood toys i used to have a bunch of figurines from the following series teenage mutant ninja turtles, gi joe, silverhawks, voltron, bravestar, starcom, transformers, along with some lego's.....atm that's as far back as i can remember. sadly i would've loved to keep my childhood toys but my dad stored them away in his 70's firebird which he sold a while back so afaik they're as good as gone.
I still have my slot cars and Barbies.
it's only commendable if the barbies still have their clothes and remain untouched by the soiled hands of your little brother/cousins perverted gi joes lol!
edit: and NO my figurines have never committed thee above! i know this for a fact for women were guilty of kooties back then!
