Post /toy/s that you personally find based in some way or positive to have growing up. (Non detrimental) It has no be based. Hard mode: no electronics. Just curious to see what you guys had, wish you had, or if you had a family what you would give them. My dad got me a lot of knight and castle stuff growing up which I’m happy about because it indirectly got me thinking about certain concepts like loyalty, conflict, willpower, duty, etc. and also gave me an early appreciation for the aesthetics and craftsmanship of those times. The armor, castles, weapons, etc.
>>25162453I wonder what happened to mone...
>>25162453I got this when I was 9. Redpilled me on women being useless holes.
>>25162453Toys were for sissies. Real boys done a hard day's work.
>>25162453Did you ever play the flash game of this?
>>25162453I would make goku and vegeta defend that castle from ugly ass freaks. Good times!
I had one of those and loved it, I remember some of the knights had gold armor and some had black, and there was a canon with a big ball. I went back to church recently and it's all old people, I'm old enough to have played with this toy as a kid and I'm the youngest person there. But there is still a Sunday school room and all the toys are from the 90s and earlier, and they have one of these castles in great shape. Sad there are no kids to play with it
>>25162453I had the castle and the pirate ship as a kid. Best toys ever made.
boys yearn to be scallywags
>>25162462Lego peak in the 90s/early 2000s
>>25162453War Planets. The tv show is also kino.
>>25162459Small churches are usually older people because their kids didn't attend so there's no next generation there. Boomers weren't exactly model parents.Megachurches are where people who can afford children go.
90s toys were peak.
Mint condition Castle Grayskulls sell for over $500 on eBay today
I still have this one stuffed away somewhere.
>>25162455My ex/former roommate was sex "toy" obsessed. She collected hundreds of dildos and vibrators before we dated.I threw them all away.After we broke up, she collected hundreds more.She collected new and used ones.It was fucking disgusting.The entire time we were together I always felt disposable because she never acted like she would be devastated if I left her or if our relationship ended. I kept thinking I was nothing more than a sex toy to her.She was kind and helpful and a lot of fun, but she made me feel as if I didn't really matter and that she'd just replace me easily.It turned out I was right.
>I want a board game that takes 4 hours to finish on a good dayBet.
>>25162460I had the castle and pirate ship too. I remember being disappointed that the ship just fell over and sank in my parents' pool lol. I also had the cowboy/old west town. That was probably my favorite desu.
>>25162453This shit was kino. When I got bored of those I'd make more powerful ones out of bamboo canes and string and fire dowling rods with them after putting them through a pencil sharpener. Riddled the shed door with them one time. Got in a lot of shit for that, worth it though. Good times.
When I got to middle school my dad bought me one of these. I think I used it every single day after school, "patrolling" my yard like I was a sentry from Ghost Recon or something lol.
>>25162453My dad bought me this plastic whistle as a kid. It's shaped like a Totem Pole. I remember the store he bought it at had them on the counter next to the cash register. They were sold as a "Tootem' Poles".
>>25162453Mine had a little cannon
>>25162453LEGO Black Seas Barracuda was THE SHIT.
>>25162453If you don't think Kaplas are the tightest shit then get out of my face
>>25162453Ball & Chain Chad is da boss.
>>25162453I had this and it gave me autism.
>>25162478Gold or black?
>>25162476those cannons actually fired too
>>25162463Lol Lego peak is in the 70s/early 80s
>>25162453
>>25162482This thing FLOAT
>>25162453I remember that castle...O' sweet nostalgia.
>>25162463nah 80's castle lego was high water
>>25162453gi joe/thread
Do newfags not know there are dedicated boards for these sort of things?
>>25162481I know... fiddly as fuck to pull the wee lever on the end back when they were in the ship though, I seem to remember it interfered with the canon on the other side much to my autistic dismay.
>>25162488bionicle were sick, but I hate how they memoryholed slizer/throwbots
>>25162487Fuck yeah, the toy where the box art was always miles better than the actual product.
>>25162489no one actually cares. according to the rules racism belongs on /b/ but here we are.>>25162491understandable
>>25162463I mightve had that exact set as a kid, or something very close. Yes, it was kino and I'm an licensed engineer now partly thanks to it
>>25162492: (
>>25162453Here's a modern toy, but I think it's brilliant. It's basically an audiobook player for kids.My 3-year-old listens to a ton of audiobooks. These things are easy for kids his age to use, and work well with pirated books. The latest version (gen 4) is a downgrade though.
MASK. i had a few of these as a kid. forgot all about them until last week. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o2Z1yLO9C-Q
NOSTALGIA TIME
>>25162453green soldier men. I had more of the green ones so the good guys were always the grey soldiers cuz there were more to kill, and it made me think to find creative ways of taking on all odds.
>>25162492kek. i discovered as a kid that the only way to play with gi joes was to forgo the weapons and the vehicles and instead was to use said vehicles as a backdrop for street fighter style royal rumbles. i would lay on my stomach and simply have martial art style 1v1 fistfights with them.flips, kicks, and body slams. each joe had his own signature moves. great fun! i still have my old joes and basically do the same thing with my sons. they love it.
>>25162453I still had the black knight with the flail until very recently. It might actually be in one of my junk boxes.
>>25162500this is a real one because theres no way in current year disney or almost any globohomocorp would allow a game to be released where you played as and sympathized with the space nazis
>>25162501and it was never about numbers. Sadly this is what got my ass kicked in school by packs of nigs and sandnigs and thugs into adulthood
>>25162498i still have the big rig truck
>>25162473Nice I had the same one. Grampa got it for me when I was like 10. Receiver finally split a few years ago.
>>25162503These things are fun at playgroup etc, but at home balance bikes are still the king.
>>25162453I remember flying these autistic things around the school yard and having dogfights with my friends.
>>25162453Im 43 and I got this for my 13th bday--yeah, I was still into toys. Still am. Fantastic set.
>>25162501I still have all mine. I gave them to my son since they are pretty hard to come by now. I even have a large C130 Hercules to carry them all in. It was hilarious building sand castles with him on the beach and setting up all the little men then we would take turns destroying the fortifications with rocks. The looks of absolute disgust by the childless shitlibs on the beach were hilarious and worth it.
A GUN, no safety orange tipJust a Gun with the crotch piece as the trigger.
>>25162453I grew up with a bunch of Fisher-Price toys, including the castle. Also the airport, the hospital, the school, some houses, the little town that had a post office and a jail, a boat, a parking garage. (I had a bunch of siblings, so it's not like it was all just mine.) Once or twice we actually put them all out in the living room at the same time and made like a little Fisher-Price kingdom, it was awesome.
>>25162470>4 hours to finishThat's nothing.
>>25162492That looks awesome, but not very practical. What is it supposed to be?
>>25162459Congrats, the fbi now knows youre between 30-45, a White male, and above average education/income
>>25162509If we’re not talking about bikes, skateboards, and surfboards; I like the magnet tiles and eichhorn constructors.
These things were works of art.
>>25162521
>>25162482I had that
>>25162470I played the shit out of this with my bros
>>25162511Same
>>25162469>dear diaryFuck off to reddit.
my dad got me a NIGGER for my 9th birthday and I made him clean my room
Legos are the GOAT. Shame theyre overpriced as shit now that theyre catering to reddit normalfags who just want to follow directions and build licenseslop statues
>>25162528METAL GEAR!?!
Looking back, I wonder if middle school me spending my pocket money on about 15 ft^3 of ikea cabinets and spending hours sorting and re-sorting my legos ever made my parents tempted to get me tested for 'tism.
>>25162529Youre goddamn right
>>25162453BasedMy friend had that, I didn’t but I had a lot of Lego including castle Lego.
For me it was playing with my uncles medieval and random Legos from the 80s that my grandparents kept at their house, K'nex, and I remember getting a bionicle for my birthday from a kid who lived a few doors down. But mainly knex, I spent most of my childhood messing around with it. Also meccano, but not as much as k'nexPicrel: spent countless hours messing around with this, also had two boxes full
>>25162453I was so jealous of my friend Cody. He got the castle and the pirate ship. All I got was molested.
>>25162486I have this and the box still as well
>>25162498Aw man, I had that orange racecar and the purple bike with the sidecar. Those things were awesome.
>>25162533knex were definitely a vibe. Everything was way more abstract and mechanical looking than lego, but you could make much larger things with knex easilyWhen I was a kid I would combine legos and knex. Legos for small detailed areas and cars/ships/whatever and knex for large fortresses
>>25162503One time, as a kid, I took the door off of one of these things and a black widow spider crawled out of the hole where the peg was. Never touched it again.
had a lot of fun with this bad boy back in the day
>>25162503>had one of these as a kid>have fat friend over>we're riding it down the hill in my backyard over and over>me and my brother do this constantly, no problem>fat friend goes down>FALLS APART under him halfway down the hill>goes rolling down the rest of the wayfuck you Matt you wrecked my cozy coup
>>25162453Seconding the castle. Soon I will pass it on to my son.
This was the only toy that kept me safe from my much older brother. I would fill it up and leave it in the backyard to heat up the water boiling hot in the aussie sun and then shoot him when he got in range for pre-emptive self defence. In the end I got dunked too many times in the swimming pool and prob have brain damage. The end
>>25162453Now shrink me down to an inch high so I can live in it.
>>25162486A videogame with this exact aesthetic would be fucking cool, and you could play online woth other people fighting of course in multiplayer battles. With today’s powerful computers there isnt any reason why you couldn’t have massive battles where each brick of the castle can actually fall off and be damaged in real time. Gameplay>graphics
>>25162539Based grandpas handed out $10 and let you buy whatever you wanted.>don’t tell your mother
>>25162493The admins should just delete all the other boards at this point because outside of the big three (b, v, and pol) there is almost no traffic.
>>25162500>)Good game. I played it to the end. It had a good ending.
>>25162545I remember that shit. Kino. I got a small starwars imperial vs ewok Lego set. the Endor conflict opened my eyes up to the horrors of guerrilla warfare at an early age.
>>25162547Lucky bitch
>>25162542Grim
Siege.
>>25162546The point of the thread is toys that are actually based, >>25162493couldnt have been made on /toy/
>>25162462that set was so dear to me>>25162481i used to shoot my lil bro in the face with it lol
>>25162453Parachutes n shiet
>this entire thread
>>2516255213 Dead End Drive.
>>25162528>>25162531*Rules of nature*
>>25162554Siege was probably the biggest regret purchase of my life after Home Alone 2 for SNES.
>>25162551It From the Pit
>>25162542I had the tech 9mm version of it. Those were cool.
>>25162453Technically you plug it in.
>>25162453i used to have a lot of toy guns. i had so many i would bring an entire duffel bag full of them to sleepovers like i was in the matrix.
>>25162453My friend had one of these castles. It was really cool as a kid.Then he pressured me into doing stuff naked with him, that wasn't so cool
>>25162528>>25162531I learned recently that 3rd party stuff is getting really high quality. Especially the minifigs. If Lego is going to lose their way I’m just going to get fan made stuff and only buy old sets if I get lego products
>>25162561Really? It was fucking great especially if you got the expansions. The game itself is meh but the fun is building the different buildings and hitting them with the different weapons.
>>25162453POG
>>25162567Invest in cobi and Quan guan for Lego WW2 shit. They have the finest stuff.
>>25162564
>>25162569poggers!
>>25162561>>25162554>SiegeThe book was better
>>25162571Vaguely recall that but never had it.
>>25162566>Then he pressured me into doing stuff naked with him, that wasn't so coolAhh, childhood memories...
>>25162565Did you ever dual wield rubber and guns and just shoot a bunch of cans or knock shit over in your room? Talk about kino.
>>25162564I had this
>>25162453Plastic welding ::sniff::
>>25162557I remember having these and maybe some ninja variants also and running up my stairs and tossing these off the second floor and watching them fall down, then running down and repeating the process over and over. I’m prettt sure sometimes I’d try to catch them and beat them by running faster down the stairs.
>>25162453I had a castle my dad made out of packing crates, then we built an epic one together out of flyscreen wire and plaster.I made the best one for my son, I built a dungeon underneath the castle (lift off castle top) and that got played with more than the actual castle.
These and their vehicles were one of my favorites
Stickfa's, had a few of these guys. They came with so many guns and accessories
>>25162582Basically tinfoil car molds that you would monster truck crush.
>>25162453LEGO used to be cool when I was growing up in the 80s. Now I feel bad for children, with all the gay handicapped legos and R*dditors stealing the figures out of the boxes.>.t happened to my friends kid
>>25162584i had kubricks. i even own the nigger kubrick pictured here.
>>25162584They should have brought those back with a stronger plastic or something, or maybe scaled them up a bit to be more durable. The underlying concept was perfect. I liked the knights samurai’s ninjas and tacticool guys
>>25162453Quarter machine.
>>25162453Stone Protectors
>>25162589quarter machines fell the moment they started selling those disgusting wetback 'homies' pieces of shit. fuckin beaners.
>>25162591Foam disc shooter, not this one but something like it. Don't remember the name.
>>25162592LMAO fucking homies, I used to buy hella stickers and slap it on my school stuff. Not those, but psychedelic alien holo shit.
>>25162594I grew up basically the same time nerf took off. Had some damn good Christmases.
>>25162597I had some nerf shit, I liked the sticky ones.
war of attrition
>>25162455when I got one of these, I realized how pathetically inferior the male sex toy industry is. fleshlights are the most marketed, but they're dogshit.
pretty comprehensive thread
>>25162453Absolute classic. I had a tonka dump truck I would put the shell on and jump on top of it and ride it down hills.
>>25162455That is room temperature. You're simulating sex with a dead body.
>>25162600easy to mod though
>>25162559 Great fucking game AnonClue+Mouse Trap= 13 DED.
>>25162604Microwave it.
These were cool too.
>>25162473I nearly shot my eye out shooting green army men off the shelf in my room.Had a pellet whiz by two inches from my head. Decided to put on some eye protection and the very next shot bounced back and hit square in the centre of the glasses lens. Stopped shooting indoors after that.
>>25162453Actually still have this.
Used to be deadly accurate with this thing. Our tree dropped hundreds of tiny dates. They’d dry up and make excellent ammo. And when they hit they exploded. Dad got mad because we pelted his grill and left splat marks
used to love these lil niggas
>>25162613Still have all mine. Loved the red one the most
::fart::Oddly specific smell.
>>25162453So close to digits!I still have the king from that set, that swings the sword when you press his head down. I gave him to my children. He is really messed up because I held his head and shield against a treadmill when I was 6 or 7 in order to file him down and erase the crest on the shield. Oh well!
And you'll never have children to share these memories with
Literally the only good thread on /pol/ rn
Parents bought this for me for learning my multiplication tables so well. I wish I understood the game more to appreciate it. Wish I still had it.
>>25162621What is this, the dentist office waiting room?
>>25162573Fuck yeah, came here to post this.I had quite a bit of the military playsets. A few of the tanks i thought looked similar to units on Tiberian Dawn/RA1 so id larp c&c battles. Id cut egg cartons in half too and use them as those transport hoverboats.Micromachines in general were great tho
>>25162453Is this place just nu/b/ now? Notice how jan-jans delete political WMAF threads but this shit gets to stay up lol
>>25162624I almost wrote that LMFAO
my parents through away all my childhood toyswhat the hell is wrong with them
>>25162626White childhood is pure Americana and political fuck chinkmixslop.
>>25162569I used to stamp the ass and titties out of Victoria's Secret catalogues with this bad boy and trade them for stuff at school.
>>25162626I'm sorry your brown parents could only provide ass beatings when you were a toyless child in the favelas, but this is a white man's thread.
>>25162630No Innawoods porn pogs?
Sad brownies culling good vibes of how good it used to be. >thisispolitcal
retard mod wins again
>>25162631Fuck yeah spirographs.
>>25162633There was a park a block from our house, with a walking path to a small lake. About 50 yards down the path and off into the prairie grass was a lone forked tree where the porno stash was. There were several acres of forest around the lake, but for some reason the stash spot was this solitary tree that was clearly visible from all around.
>>25162663I dumpster dove in a Baton Rouge apartment complex and found horror porn (Halloween special???) in like the 3rd grade kek
>>25162643They betrayed us….like the prophets betrayed the elites in halo.
>>25162663Youre telling me there was a group of people sharing communal porn magazines in some tree? What if you were reading them and some other guy randomly shows up?
They removed this from /toy/? Fucking bloody bastard mods!
>>25162781Maybe? Idk, but porn was innawoods. Never chanced upon any weirdos tho. I only found out about skipbo in the 2ks tho
>>25162612This thread has been based. I remember a friend and I shooting pebbles and small rocks at eachother in his backyard hiding behind cardboard boxes and we stopped after one hit me in the wrist and I realized that could have been my eye and we had no eyepro— we must have been shooting eachother for 20 minutes by that point
https://youtu.be/62BSmqSKPVU
>>25162781What if? He'd look at porn too. This was a brand new development of like 6 blocks of houses on the edge of town, all the boys knew each other. Somewhere out around that tree I lost my copy of Link's Awakening too.
Miss and despise those times
>>25162870This bitch was OP.
