Mine was Cabbage Patch Kids! I loved 'em. They were so cute with their round chubby faces. Every Christmas for like 5 years I got a new one. Santa (my mom) would never wrap it. She would just put under the tree so that when I woke up in the middle of the night to see if Santa had visited my house yet, I would see it, open it and take it back to my room to cuddle and sleep with. I still have a couple. I think I am going to save them for when I have kids.

So, what's yours?

I was a toy soldiers kid. I used to set up huge elaborate battlefields and wage war.

I used to read a lot (not as much as I do now) and watch TV...and I'm an only child so I don't remember playing a lot (there's only so much you can do by yourself).

But I remember Barbies...I still have all of that junk. The house. Multiple cars. Barbies of every haircolor and skin color and a few Kens. A whole chest full of Barbie clothes...I was big on the clothes. Camping accessories. Shoes, jewelry. It goes on and on. I even had all five of the Spice Girl barbies (I was big into Spice Girls).

I can't remember much else. I know I had some matchbox cars. Mostly, I remember the TV, though.

I used to collect Chipper Jones baseball cards. I had about 60, including his 1991 minor league draft card.

Man, I have his rookie card. I used to be a Braves fan.

my bike.

A cricket bat. A polo mallet.

oh, and tamagachi's and giga pets and nano pets...

Um........my teddy bear, monster trucks, sometimes barbies, and my Bert and Ernie stuffed animals.

My childhood toys came in phases. First I always played with the big orange and blue blocks, then an obsession with Barbies, and, as I'm sure most kids my age did too, I had to get every possible Beanie Baby I could find.

Legos... and anything and everything Polly Pocket... oh, and matchbox cars...

I think I was totally into Barbies...actually...I collect them now and im 16!

Stuffed animals and playmobiles

I never was really into dolls, stuffed animals were more my thing. (even as a kid I was animal crazy! ) I had the tamagotchi-type things, but I hated them (they always died on me) except for the knockoffs that didn't die on you. I didn't like the whole furby thing, when I got one I could never understand what it said.
I was really into pokemon though, and digimon too.
And I was crazy about beanie babies! I would make my parents get dozens of them I still have a few actually.
One toy that I really liked as a kid was the talkgirl tape recorder. (like the talkboy tape recorder in home alone) I would record radio shows with my stuffed animals

Good times...

i hated barbies, but my little brother played with them....

When I was 6 months old I got a cabbage patch doll that was preemie size. She was my favorite toy and she is still on a shelf in my room at home.

A water doll (a rubber doll that you could fill with water to give it shape) which I named Suzie. When I got my first pair of scissors, I immediately gave Suzie a cut in the arm- making her not so waterproof anymore. (Why I cut her I don't remember.) I think we glued her cut back together, but I don't think she was allowed in the bathtub anymore. I also had a baby doll- named Nu, and I drew all over his face. I was a horrible child.

What else... I never played with barbies. But that was all going WAY back. In elementary school, I was obsessed with Pokemon and Tomagotchis like the rest of the world. And... a water gun. I used to have water gun fights with all the kids in the neighborhood (there are lots).

And I used to play with my brothers calvary set- and have all kinds of trading post stuff...

Memories.

My lego set that constantly decreased in size...
and weekly packs of "amazing elastic plastic." You know, the packets of semi-liquid gunk that you placed on a straw and blew bubbles from?
Stuffed animals too.

Ah, the joys of childhood..

LEGOS and the little 6-inch Star Wars figurines were my most popular childhood toys.
