Childhood Toys. Those were the days.....

The S2000 dashboard reminds me of this:

For nostalgia thats great, for a modern car on sale in the 2000's? Not so much!

 

Taking inspiration from Dedman's post above, got me thinking...

 

"What long forgotten toys from your childhood bring back fond memories"?

Had that ' Turbo Tomy ' and also the Shark attack 3-D which are still floating around in the parents loft I believe.

They were crap. As was I at them. :(

 

I was a big Transformers fan as a kid. And He-Man. I had Castle Greyskull and Skeletor's place and everything.

I've been selling off some of myold toys, namely my original transformers. The only ones I have left now are the bigger ones like scorponok! I never though of offering them to you guys on here.

I've just bought myself an icade which arrived today.

 

Been downloading games and playing it all evening - it's fantastic!

Still got some StarCom toys laying about.

Had the original Soundwave (which I saved an eternitys worth of pocket money for)

One of my uncles from Hong Kong bought me Metroplex, the Autobot counter part to Skorponok.

Loved Transformers, and while in Hong Kong I picked up some of the Jayce & the Wheeled Warriors toys.

Sadly all my transformers have been lost along with the rest :(

I still have metroplex and scorponok. I will stick then in the for sale section along with my car bits soon in case anyone is interested before I pop them on eBay.

 

I had quite a few transformers but sadly had to sell them in order to pay for the front bumper repair and respray.

Robot Wars! I had the remote control Shunt and Sir Killalot, were great fun until my mum took them away because I was "modifying" the weapons to be slightly more effective!
