What was/were your favourite childhood toy(s)? I know of two of mine. When I was little, I had a gloworm (if you're too young to know what a gloworm is, this is it (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00008X35E/qid=1152467471/sr=8-1/ref=pd_bbs_1/102-6517222-6108918?%5Fencoding=UTF8&v=glance)), and when I was a bit older, I had a little black Yoshi plushie that I brought almost everywhere with me. I had a huge set of Nintendo plushies, but the black one was the cutest. :)

I have one of the original Miss. Piggy puppets from 1977. I loved it as a child, and it's a very, very, rare item. I thought about putting it up for sale on eBay, but I'm not really sure if I should.

Im not sure. I had every Barbie doll I could have ever wanted, but I just used to shove them in the cupboards and watch my brother play video games. Whatever he did, I did.
He was like my idol as a child

I dun remember. Well, there was the NES. I used to play Bubble Bobble with my little brother a lot. I liked building blocks too. I would build huge towers taller than my dad (6'2"). :3 They always ended up falling over, of course. :D

That made me AWWWWWWWWW so much. xD

I had a really freaky clown toy that could turn its head around like in The Exorcist. I freakin' loved it. I also loved this old toy my mother had when she was little; it's a doll, and you pull its head really far away from its body and it makes odd comments, such as "here comes my body!" I also had a baby doll that my dad advised me to call Git, and so I did. I loved Git. And then come another baby doll who of course became Tit.

I was a disturbed child. I had weird toys.

Between my sisters and I, we had every Barbie imaginable. We also had Popples and Gloworms. And I had an original Cabbage Patch doll that I loved immensely...:D

EDIT: Oh! And I had She-Ra and He-Man action figures. I miss those guys!

Well I got my PlayStation in '97, and I loved playing FFVII, Battle Arena Toshinden, and Tekken 1. Tekken 1 was so fun, I was the best. I was 5 at the time. I remember me and my best friend used to play Tekken all the time, and then we'd go outside and act it out and stuff. He was usually Marshall Law, and I was Yoshimitsu. It was so fun.

I also remember my action figures, great times with them. I'll think of more later.

I had (and still have) a plushi cow called Turn, becaus when you turned her upside-down, she'd go 'Moo!'

a doll, and you pull its head really far away from its body and it makes odd comments, such as "here comes my body!"
WTF?

I had tons of stuff

Lego, Transformers, He-Man action figures, tons of those lastic army men (My mate and I had AWESOME wars! like two hours to set up xD)

Plus there was my beloved Sega Master System 2, but I eventually never playe it any more (If only I owned that Megadrive of my friends...)

I still have mine. He is 21 and is called Flump. An orange cat with Kiss Me on his belly. There were big in the 80s, but no-one can remember the actual name of the toy. And of course my collection of My Little Ponies, the chubby ones not the stick insect ones. I still have some of them cause my nana for some reason threw loads of them on a skip and kids took them :(

I had/still have dozens of cuddly toys, including a chick named Chirpy, a kitten named Mosey and a Pumpkin named Pum. I had a bunch of toy cars and stuff too, but those were my favourites. :D

I have a German Shepard puppy plushie my Grandad gave me when I was 5. I still have him. I had a Mega Drive, and last time I checked it still worked. I really should get it out and try some day.

I loved playing with LEGO and could spend hours building stuff with the tiny blocks. I also had a bunch of action figures - e.g. I had several Power Rangers figures which were put very well to use :cool: There was nothing like the Power Rangers when I was a kid :choc2:

One of my favorite toys was this stuffed gorilla that had a banana in it's hand. I used to dress it up in Cabbage Patch clothes and make it's scalp look like Moe from the Three Stoodges.

I had a pink panther soft toy that always comes to mind when I think of childhood toys. It was from like the 70s though so it was older than me. Unfortunately I don't have any pictures of it where I am not naked.

I had a favourite teddy bear which I was inseparable from - loved to death, very unstuffed and eyes loose etc. But I was eventually heartbroken to find out that after all those years Teddy wasn't mine but a hand-me-down from my older sister. BOO HOO HOO HOO HOO HOO HOOOOOOOOOOOOOO. I lost him to HEEEERRRRRRRRR.

My NES, plastic swords, chess set, and power rangers and megazords sets made life worth living as a little one.

Probably this wooden fort I had with plastic soldiers. I remember I used to just play with them for an hour or two. I'd make a few of one type of soldier go to the middle of the fort, and then I'd make the other soldiers flank them.

And of course, the Sega Megadrive was amazing, as well as the SNES. Can't forget Final Fantasy VII which I completed at nine, which was a life-changing experience, really.

Umm, let me think.

My Werebear, the huge box of toy cars I had, my Power Ranger weapons, my Optimus Prime action figure, my Lego, that's all I can really remember right now.
