The one toy I remember receiving and using for many years was my roller skates. This was about 35  years ago now. It was the type which went over the top of your shoes. The front leather was extendable by loosening the laces. The bottom of it was unscrewed and you then lengthened the roller skate as you got older.  I must've used those for 3 or 4 years. Goodness, my legs got scraped so badly I ended up with small pebbles stuck in my skin! Nice!

When I was growing up the nintendo 64 and gameboy video games were popular. I loved playing with them. I also liked pokemon but I wasn't allowed to play with them :(

That would probably be my small collection of Teenage Mutant Ninja toys. I had a regular Raphael, and multiple gimmick ones such as turtle trolls (tmnt + treasure trolls), and a rockstar Donatello. If I had those toys today, I probably could sell them. I also liked Lego.

My baseball, bat and glove. I was a tomboy and did not like to play dolls with my little sister. Besides she whined all the time. I also like my deck of cards. Grandpa taught me poker when i was little. He did not have anyone else to play with. Loved my grandpa. Miss him and grandma i could always go to them when i needed to talk about something. Thanksgiving was always one of their favorite holidays. and Christmas. Grandma had 10 kids so it was always a mad house with all of us rug rats.

i had a baby alive and puppy alive but somehow lost the puppy alive and lost the accessories to my baby alive. found the exact doll at a garage sale for like 75 cents with the bottle. i had to get it. i kept the bottle with my original doll and let my niece play with the one i got from the garage sale... which surprisingly was in better shape then mine.

I never really played with toys from what I remember.  I had a little stuffed dog that I slept with every night but that's was about it.  Normally I would draw or make something instead of playing with toys though I'm sure I did more playing when I was really young but I don't remember much of those years.

The first thing that probably comes up is the slinky and later on legos. If I still had them I probably won't trying out lego building again, but getting a new set nowadays is just too expensive.
