I wish I still had my lawn darts.

Now they only have "safety" ones that bounce.

Safety darts are stupid.

I'm the only person I know who never had a big wheel.

If you were as lanky as a kid as you are now you probably wouldnt fit on one

Big Wheels rocked but had no traction.

Big Wheels rocked but had no traction.

plus you always got that flat spot worn in the front wheel from stopping it and sliding in the same place every time

This place sells adult sized big wheels but they all appear out of stock at the moment.

Oh and you know the ones that roll up into little balls.

And I used to have a dress up box.

So looking back I played with balls and did role playing.

My younger bro had one that turned into a soccer ball. I kicked it through a window, got in a lot of shit, so that's how I remember.

Had all the original star wars toys. I loved my death star and Millenium Falcon playsets.

Also had the old school GI-Joe. The one who could get it on with Barbie, not the later models that if barbie got it on with them it would be Florida Teacher Barbie or something.

Also had these things called Micronauts. God, they were the best toy ever.

 

[Desslock]

I had Star Wars, Star Trek, GI Joe, Big Jim, The Bionic Man. My favorite were the Star Wars toys.
I still have my Millenium Falcon.
