yeah, it is sad/but true when a toy turns into a weapon.

Lincoln Logs and my Hoppity Hop...also loved to do magic.One of my best Xmas presents was a Monster Makeup Kit.It was made and distributed by a famous Hollywood make up artist.
I used the fake blood and silicone molds to make it look like I ripped my face open.Scared the shit out of my mother and she was NOT happy..lol.

When good toys go bad.


Lego's caused a lot of unintended pain as well.
You ever step on a little one in bare feet?
I made this giant lego castle once, had it sitting on the floor, that night I rolled out of my bed while sleeping(top bunk, bunk beds) and landed right on the thing.
It's hard to find the words to describe how bad that hurt.

There's too many pages (or I'm just lazy and a bit tired) for me to read all of them so most will probably be a repeat but......

-- Lego - had a kick ass pirate ship + a castle with secret entrance, portcullis and drawbridge + making random stuff was also fun, I remember making a CIA style base.. I've always wondered why everyone loves lego but few aspire to be builders...



-- Football, Skateboard, Bike/BMX

-- Tracy Island (homemade )



-- Micromachines - had exploding bridge base thing and it was good for disaster movie esque scenarios



-- Nerf Guns, Cap Guns, BB Guns

-- Rope Swings

Pong
Even though it was our first ever video game, it got old after the first hour of playing it.

Asteroids was always a good time though

some of the toys i had these were the best ever

 

[Kalicokitty]

I was just thinking about Arcades, remember when video games had first come out, and every mall had an arcade?

Those were the days as a kid.
Everyone was hanging out there, and if you got really good at a new game you could become a little local arcade celebrity.
This was the only game I ever completely ruled without equal.
Tailgunner, I would have people 20 deep crowded behind me when I played watching, ahhhh, the good old days at the arcade.

My little brother was the first person I'd seen in our town that could get all the way through dungeons and dragons video game, which was a huge deal at the time because of the new animation of it.
Everyone stopped and watched him.
I miss the arcades.

i also collected these

 

[Japanfreakier]

I miss the arcades.

Hey man I got a pocket full of quarters, and I'm headed to the arcade. I don't have a lot of money, but I'm bringing everything I made. I've got a callus on my finger, and my shoulder's hurting too. I'm gonna eat them all up, just as soon as they turn blue. Cause I got pac-man fever.
