View Masters!!!!!

The only drawback from this toy (CLACKERS) was after a while it started to chip and it would hurt when the pieced would hit you like shrapnel.

This was my very first video game and I think it was pre ATARI

http://i90.photobucket.com/albums/k261/photoguy_05/Games%20and%20Toys/telstar.jpg

Then I went to this hand held game and I had about 5 game cartridges for it. . . . . . .

When i was young i use to love to ride my "crazy car". Anybody remember them?

This game was always interesting and depending on the level very frustrating too. . . . . . .

My little toy fountain drink machine. I loved it. You could actually hook your favorite soda pop to it.

This was a favorite of mine. . . . . . .

Comedyguy, your pictures are bringing back some great memories. Thanks for sharing.

Here is a game that I was pretty good at. . . . . . .

http://i90.photobucket.com/albums/k261/photoguy_05/Games%20and%20Toys/kerplunk.jpgI love that!! (Havent played in awhile)

I guess candyland is one I still enjoy.... (As well as others of that time)

I have this Tomy Atomic Arcade Pinball still in the original box.
This is a stock photo of one.

I had a Beautiful Chrissy doll. You could make her hair different lengths by turning a knob on her back! I got her for Christmas one year! She was the doll to get around that time, advertised on TV all the time. I was SO happy when I saw her under the tree on Christmas morning!!! :)

I think the older sister of my friends down the street had a Mystery Date game.

I have an early memory of receiving a Play-Doh Fun Factory Jr. around 1970 for Christmas:

I remember I sort of resembled the boy on the box back then...!

One of my favorite toys as a kid was the Big Trak. I can remember a friend and I drawing a map of the house then trying to program the Big Trak to navigate a course without running into anything.

WOW!!! Thank you for the memory! :)

I was a huge Star Wars fan as a kid, I had action figures, X-Wing, landspeeder, Tie-fighter, Death Star Space Station, and Cantina playset, board game, jigsaw puzzles, curtains, bed set, (still have the comforter, no I don't still use it...my wife won't let me, she says it clashes with everything.), models (The R2D2 model even came with the death star plans). Of the action figures, ships, and playsets, I have left are the figures and landspeeder. Also still have the board game, and puzzles.

Every year for Xmas since we've been married my wife buys me something Star Wars related to put in my stocking. I have a bunch of SW Pez dispensers, stickers, playing cards, etc.

Anyone else ever own an electric Mattel "Thingmaker" -- ? These popular hotplates of sorts made rubbery things using molds and liquid "Plastigoop." (There was even a version of goop that was edible!) My Thingmaker was part of a "Zoofie Goofies" set I got for my birthday one year:

These types of molds have been revived in more recent years, but I believe the old Thingmakers got too hot to be able to use modern Plastigoop in them.

Battling Tops was my favorite.

Battling Tops was my favorite.


We had battling tops too! It was actually my brothers game, but I played it with him! ;) Fun times!! :)

I played against my brother with his Battling Tops game too.

We also played Wrestle Around by Ideal, which was a birthday gift of mine from my dad. There were different color marbles, and you would try to keep yours from falling through a hole in the center of the arena:
