Subject: Anybody still have toys?
Written By: BlooBerryMuffin76 on 01/05/04 at 07:40 p.m.
I don't know if they're actually considered toys, but here's my list:
PEZ dispensers (collect them)
Hello Kitty stuff (watch, alarm clock, hair clips...)
motion lamps
two Sesame Street videos
Cinderella tape
Lion King and Fantasia cd
And I really want to get a My Little Pony keychain (if they actually have these!) and Lite Brite. :-/
I'll be 28 next month, but I guess I'm just a big kid.

I'm 14, so I should have grown out of toys, but nope- I have a stuffed walrus called Gilly (my favourite!), a stuffed JarJar Binks toy, a bunch of stuff in the attic that I sometimes play with, and two stuffed toy snakes (called Hissin' Sid and Tacitus) that I drape over my furniture to complete the African theme I have going on (even though I have a fake tiger rug and there isn't a single tiger in Africa).

Yes but I dont play with them they are still in the packages.I bought some action figures from Star Wars Episode 1.Hopefully they will be worth something but seeing how bad these latest Star Wars movies have been ...who knows?For the record video game systems are not considered toys.

I have a Rubik's cube (I shall solve it someday!), some Harry Potter legos, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles action figures, a Frodo action figure (his sword lights up! Gnarly!), some Star Wars action figures, a Cabbage Patch doll (that's a bit odd), and the green care bear. I'm such a nerd. :)

Hey, the way I see it is, if you enjoy it and it doesn't hurt anyone, there's no reason why you shouldn't do it!
I apply that logic to everything in life.

I still have most of my stuffed animals (the ones I was really attached to, anyway), three My Little Ponies, all my Golden Books (the ones with the gold spine), all my kitchen/cooking supplies, and the alarm clock I recieved for my 5th birthday (it is pink and totally 80s and I have it in my dorm room :)). Those are all the toys I still have to my knowledge. Hopefully when I move out and I find all my stuff, there will be some more childhood treasures that pop up.

Most of my stuffed animals are in a box in the basement (there are a few special ones that are in the bedroom). My dolls I gave to my sister a long time ago-she collects, buys and sells them. Last year, I managed to aquire a little figurine of (who else) Catwoman. That sits on my desk. I also have few other little toys here and there. I still have my games-again, down in the basement. We also have our BIG toys-the Nitendo (first generation) and Nitendo 64, not to mention the computer-with all our games. Our BIGGEST toy has to be the 25 foot sailboat. ;D
