oh wasn't it so awful when she skated over the roses and went blind!

this doll, everytime you pull her hair, "ouch that hurts". I still have her...I thought she was sooo real, I didn't like other kids touching her and I still played with her until a later age.

Okay, why did I cry like a baby through that whole part.....

and i had a little fringed vest and skirt... and i would put on my cowboy boots and my little toy gun and go to town!

not sure that would be my favorite... i went in spells with my toys like all kids
(btw my sister had superstar barbie and i was always sooo jealous - and i still have some of my smelly erasers too )

me too

I had that too, but it was a real sorry excuse for a Star Destroyer.

TMPletz said:

yeah, in retrospect it was a cheesy toy, but at the time i loved it. that was the biggest star wars toy my mom would ever get me. i never got a death star or a millenium falcon or anything REALLY impressive. i got a dagobah playset...but i really wanted one.

I would have KILLED for an AT-AT!

my best friend when i was a kid came from a rich family, so i'd stay at his place on weekends and he'd have all the cool big star wars toys and we'd play in his PLAYROOM (?!?) all weekend - he had the death star, millenium falcon, droid factory...but the AT-AT was even too rich for HIS family's blood.

That sounds like my house complete with playroom! My little brother had the Death Star, I had the Falcon, but we didn't have the Droid Factory. We had a bunch of other ships, though. My mom refused to pay $50 for a toy back then, so no AT-AT for us.

I used to collect them too ,and fancy paper. Paper that smelled of Strawberry and pencils that smelled of cola ,everything had a smell .I remember swapping my two new rainbow lipstick erasers for my friends half rubbed out My Little Pony one then i regreted it and she wouldn't swap back

I also loved my Barbie's but i would always give them a hair cut and they would end up bald.

Yeah that was me , but my Barbie's had no hair and biro all over their face !

my sister and me too. My sister desperately wanted a Michael Jackson doll, so for christmas she got one, and I was given a boy george doll!!! I was so mad, I cried. To try to make more of a man out of him, I cut his hair and tried to wipe his make-up off with nail polish remover - but it wiped off ALL his features and from that day on he had to be the ghost of george
(we had 15 barbies and only one Ken - MJ and ghost of george did not count as males )
another barbie we had was sprayed black with automotive paint which did not dry and melded her hair into this clump, she got called swamp woman and we chucked her over the fence into the neighbours yard.

It was my doll 'Sally-Ann'- i remember naming her when i got her for my 4th birthday I took her in2 bed with me every night and my mum used to call me "Snugglepot and Cuddlepie" I remember trying 2 use the dough from the paratha (indian flat bread!) my mum used 2 make as a 'facial' on her face it hardened and stayed on her face for two dayz straight

Wow! When I was eight years old I had a toy you had to put together that would trigger actions and reactions of a mechanical nature. Like the first step would be to roll a metal ball and it would hit another gadget that would trigger movements that used mini trampolines, slides, and a wide range of masterful components to come up with an ingenious end to your invention. Similar to the chain of event contraptions Wile E. Coyote would come up with to catch the RoadRunnerm and in the same idea as the game MOUSETRAP, but far more techy and innovative.

Damn if I could remember the name of that toy!!!

Challenged your creativity, trial and error, and ingenuity skills!!

A Boy George doll


was that it?


that would be worth some money now ,if you didn't wipe his face off !
