I really wasn’t into the figure toys growing up. I was more attracted to toys that actually did something..lol. I was into science and art so I was asking for things like Etch-a-Sketch, Spirograph, an erector set, etc. One year I forgo any request for toys if my parents bought me a microscope! Then it was the same for a telescope. I just found stuff like G.I Joe, Shogun Warriors and the like uninteresting.

Esteban, Joe didn’t mention Shogun Warriors, Micronauts, or Buck Rogers toys. I’ll have to ask him about those.

The main toys I had from age six and up were Transformers, Gobots, He-Man and the Masters of the Universe, and video games (Atari and Nintendo stuff). I also had a bunch of vinyl records and cassette tapes. I was really into music and video games and riding my bike.

I never owned any G.I. Joe, Ghostbusters, or Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles figures, race car tracks, or remote controlled cars. I did have a few creative/artistic toys, like Legos, Construx, Lite-Brite, and an Etch-a-Sketch Animator. I also had a few random Star Wars and Rock Lords figures and a small rubber Voltron.

By the way, we can’t keep up with all of these celebrity deaths. Every time we post a new episode, another one dies. This time it’s Walter Cronkite.

And I might have to buy the Electric Company on DVD. “silent-LY”
