TOYS

Remember Mr. Machine ??

The commercial had the neatest theme song and we knew every word of it.

 

The heck with Mr. Machine---I wanted these:

 

I loved my metal slinky,!! They made great weapons...lol

 

I do too. I even sharpened the points on them so they would stick in the ground better.

 

the plastic ones they sell today don't work worth a damn.

 

Those were the days! The new politically correct ones are lame.

 

Yea. You don't have near the fun throwing those at each other like the metal ones. I wonder why they ban stuff and don't just leave well enough alone.

 

I still buy HotWheels.

 

Look kind of silly to me now, but god I loved that bike. I can still remember the tv commercial too.

 

I got one on my desk now. pointing to my right. I have to get on my son because he likes to destroy them.

 

Just like getting hit, by a click clacker! those left a nice bruise!

 

"...is there some kind of app that goes with this?"

 

~"Some people are like Slinkies. Totally useless, but still make you smile when you push them down a flight of stairs."

 

I got the Ken Block special edition.

 

Had the old school armor piercing ones.

 

No cars seats, no bike helmets, some cars with no seatbelts, dangerous toys, little supervision....it's a wonder I survived my childhood.

 

We used to use fiberglass barn siding to make jump ramps and jump over one of our parents cars on our BMX bikes.
