I also had Fortress Maximus - the 2 foot+ tall Transformer that transformed into a city

Re: Old toys from way back
Awesome. I used to host an event at my primary school, where I would race Matchbox cars against eachother down a hill. Seemed like half the school used to rush there to participate.Higgs wrote:Oh yeah, I was all about Matchbox cars when I was a kid. I had 3 cases of the things plus a shoebox. Give me those and a sand pit and I was sorted for the day.Anders wrote:
Had just over 300 of these, collected between ages 5 and 11. Got my mother to agree to me hosting a party for me and some friends when I reached 300. Two girls showed up that had a crush on me. They tried to hide with a present of a large bag of candy and love hearts for me, but we saw them first. We ran after them and surrounded them. I did date one of them later that year for three months.
Stopped collecting shortly after. Mostly stopped with kids toys by 12, and converted to video games. Although I did build some lego between 12-15.
This is one of the cases I had - each would hold 4 trays of 20 or so cars.

I had that Evel Kneval toy and I have no idea where it came from. I didn't even know who he was. I'm guessing a grandparent gave it to me.

I used to have a ton of these books for my old record player that my grandad gave me.

I had a collection of He-Man books, some Disney stories, and Star Wars
