bring something back from when you were a kid

i choose madballs. remember these things guys and gals.

I couldn't possibly bring back just one thing. I'd want it all. Especially this time of year when I watch my kids open presents and it reminds me of all the things I had as a child.
I want back all my Saturday morning cartoons.
I want all my penny candy.
I want all my childhood friends. (Actually, got most of em thanks to facebook)

I WANT MY BIKE BACK!!!! It was Electric blue and it was the BEST!
I want my house back.
I want my puppy dog back..... Blackie I miss you!
Ah geez..I'm a blubbering mess now.

Something I hated, wasn't allowed to have, but was strangely fascinated by: Garbage Pail Kids.

Something I loved and probably had ten of: Pogo balls.

POG's anyone??

i have a ton of garbage pail kids that i bought on ebay. i wanted to bring it back

There are plenty of thing that we want to bring back from when we were little kids. There's just sooo many things that we have to choose from though. I would say the Buick Grand National, but we still see a lot of them around.


As for what car to bring back if this company was still around would have to be this one.........

Bring me back JARTS. Remember those lawn darts that were about a foot long and weighed a good couple of pounds or more. They've been banned since my time but you can still buy cigarettes, AK-47's, cop killing bullets, drugs but not Jarts.



And my Atari/games. To this day I don't know what happened to it? My baseball glove my dad oiled for me when I was playing little league. That was the best glove a lefty could ever have. I miss the smell.

My parents would be the number one thing I'd like to have back. They both were gone before I grew up.

oh snap. i remember those big ass friggin lawn darts.
i didn't know they were banned. i kinda just thought they fell out

OK soda. Loved it, miss it. I also was just thinking about those little dinosaurs you put in water and watched grow. Those things were so cool when I was 3. Bubble gum cigarettes and a backyard fort are high on the list too. Hell, if it wasn't snowing I think I would go build a fort in my backyard right now.

Before computers and laptops we would play with the "speak'n'spell"

Sitting there trying to understand what it was saying lol





ANd i could not go to bed without my GLowworm!!

Operation


Pound Puppies


Garbage Pal Kids


Lite Brite

My first rodent pet was a little black mouse - the start of a beautiful friendship with all things small and nibbly.

I completely forgot about the rodents! I miss my rats and guinea pigs. They were so great. I love you Fang! Coolest guinea pig ever, he was the size of my pit bull but was actually viscous.

Disco. Hot damn!

You aren't alone there, sister of mine.
I still own about 60. Mostly 80's stuff.

You...me....and a Mix Tape Party.

YOU got it!

Cupcake dolls. I was never much into dolls but these really fascinated me.

I'd like to bring back my youth.

My second choice would be: CLACKERS!!



Remember these? They eventually took them off the market because theyt were "dangerous."

They were cool!
