    Yup. Legos FTW. My two brothers and I had a Lego collection that I now realize, looking back, was epic. It got so huge at one point, we had a queen-size pillow case that was almost completely full of Legos of various shapes and sizes.

    I'm a big believer in the classics: Legos, Play-Doh, Silly Putty, Slinky, Big Wheel. And my brothers and I rode this thing so much, I'm surprised the living room was sprayed with puke:

    If I spent some good money on Ebay for some childhood toys (other than Star Wars) it would be:

    1. '70s Mego Batman figures
    2. Original Stretch Armstrong (and Stretch Monster)
    3. Six Million Dollar Man figure (and Maskatron)
    4. Raydeen Shogun Warrior (small and large)
    5. Pulsar action figure
    6. Playschool Underdog toys

    I'll second Atari. Pitfall was my favorite.

    Talking about playing with dirt and sticks and army men reminded me of how I used to use the shells of the cicadas as an army and then smash them all to pieces in the war.

    Nerf Guns were the shiznit, I loved the bow n arrow

    Micromachines were great

    I always liked any kind of miniature plastic realistic looking dinosaurs and animals. I would do my own wild kingdom episodes.

    Pogs when I was older

    Whatever was handed down by my brother. The earliest toy I remember was Cheetara from Thundercats. She was a hot cat.

    WIN

    I usually ended up breaking most of my robots and action figures, since I used them in very epic and intense battles. (i had quite the imagination back then..now im stupid :( )

    And like many others I had a whole city of Legos
