Hmmm like most little girls, my barbies and my barbie accessories ( namely my hot pink motor home) were high on the list, but other than that I was a shameless tomboy.

I had, and probably still have kicking around somewhere, every ghostbuster and ninja turtle figurine/accessory known to man. The day my dog chewed Splinter sticks out in my memory as one of the saddest days of my 8-year old life.

I don't think I ever owned a ken doll.My Barbie and Skipper got married to Eagon and Raphael.

Never had a doll house either.....but I was the only kid on the block with the Ghostbusters station!

well I liked a few things. II had a hockey game, Its hard to describe, u sometimes see it in an arcade. Kinda like a foozball table, 5 knobs that you can pull for each player and it moves the guy back and forth on the board.

You mean rod-hockey? Come on man, that's like saying snowballs are hard to describe.

Paper Airplanes!

I remember when I was 8 I would make over 20 planes and just throw them and it wasted most of my time.

Lego was another big part of my child hood.

Lego and my dad's old meccano. That's pretty much it. And maybe some old fisher price stuff. Oh and playdoh, that stuff was great.

Does anyone remember the paper airplane flying contests they used to have in the Saddledome? You could go up to the nosebleeds and let 'er rip and there were prizes for longest flight and such. Not sure if they did it more than one year, but my brother and I went one year and tried it out.
