Old Skool Toys

[4parajon]

I spose its that time of year again when parents are talking about what to get the children for xmas, and that set me thinking about the toys I'd always wanted as a child but for whatever reason never got.

Anyone else remember these

Both found on e-bay which surprised me

 

 

and this

 

 

Any other old farts like me out there see if you can find some piccies of yours and post 'em up

That was a quality toy, although I seem to remember the box mine came in was red and white

I used to have an absolutely mint Optimus Prime truck and trailer years ago... It's all been lost now. Someone tried telling me how much they're worth now and I told him I'd make sure he was never able to speak again if he did... It sickens me to think about how much money I had sitting in my toy cupboard.
