OMFG THE TMNT SEWER. I had that, and the figures, and the car that threw those plastic pizzas. Remember how on the sewer set, the pipe on the end would always fall off when you tried to use it? Boot the Foot, bitches.

I also had the Ghost Busters collection with their sweet ass car

And I had the lifesize ghost zapper thing that had that cheesy yellow cylindrical foam that served as the laser, though I can't find a picture of it.

I was all about me some Hot Wheels and all the sets that came with it...

Don't worry, the Shark Car is still alive and well today. That picture was taken circa December '04 and is actually from my Myspace pictures.

Mmm...and a little later on...some good old fashioned Crash Test Dummies

Then as I got a bit older, I was all about them Legos...
I specifically liked the Police and Firefighter sets, but I can't find pictures of these. I used to build them and destroy them. I was really into weather and fascinated by hurricanes, tornadoes, and earthquakes at the time, so I used to pretend like my lego sets were being destroyed by one of the disasters that I listed.

When I got even older, I can't lie, I was down with Tomagotchis cause they were pretty sweet. Probably cause it was something to do during class and were small enough to hide.

didn't it always piss you off that legos were always so damn expensive, i never understood that shit, it would be like 10 dollars for those little small packs that built like a little space ship or something and only had like 5 peices to it, it always made me so mad

My thing was gi joes, I had the base or whatever, the one that was on wheels, and a bad ass space shuttle one. Along with about 100 gi joes all kinds of tanks and shit. Remember the "tiger" type stuff, their was a boat, jet and a few other things. Oh shit I loved them. I liked micro machines too. Of the above things, a kid that lived down the street had the goast buster stuff, nextdoor kid had heman, another kid had the TMNT sewer. But over the years the thigs that we played with the mos was toy guns, go figure.

Am I the only one who was into the M.U.S.C.L.E men toys? Those little rubber like wrestler dudes. They came in little clear/white plastic trash cans. There were like hundreds of them! I collected those like a madman. I still have tons too.

These dudes are fuckin' amazing! I have a huge bag right on the shelf here of like 200 of them that I still have. I could prolly sell them on ebay for a lot too. And of course GI Joe. Masters of the Universe. I have this oldschool masters of the universe T-shirt that I bought at six flags a couple years ago. Ohhh the nostalgia

i had the red one with a tree on it's belly and hearts all over the place.... My mom thinks it's why I'm such a tree hugger.

in the books madeline got her appendix taken out .. and under that blue trench coat is a scar painted on the doll!!!

still have mine, though it's a different one than in the picture .. i always braided beads into it's maine.

i actually had a knock off Easy Bake oven ... That christmas santa had given Easy Bakes to all the other little girls and had to give me a different kind becuase he ran out ... The christmas i stopped believing.

mine was actually human size and had a stove sticker on the top with little yellow chairs and a full set of plastic china and silver.

I think in order to post in this topic you have to actually qualify the "grew up" portion of the title, Sayzak.

And, of course, Transformers were the shit. The originals were awesome, and I was big into the Beast Wars ones. I had a lot of the Beast Wars toys. Like Megatron was a big T-Rex, and Optimus Prime was the gorilla. Good stuff.
