Ditto, I tried that and you saw what mine looks like. So to sum it up, joy buzzer, yo-yo (tenfold), pop-up books, finger paint, View-Master, Little Golden Books, Slinky, Mr(s). Potato Head, Play-Doh, Frisbee, hula hoop, Barbie dolls, Troll dolls, Etch-a-sketch, Easy Bake Oven, Lite-Brite (loved that thing but HATED when the sheets wouldn't go in just right so none of the pegs fit), Polly Pocket, Skip-it, Super soaker, Beanie babies, I had all of these, and my brother had the Pound Puppies, microscope set, Legos, army men, Mr. Potato Head, Creepy Crawlers, Hot Wheels, NERF, Stretch Armstrong, etc.

The Furby's sucked. Annoying little things.

I've had quite a few of those. I loved me some Cabbage Patch Kids.
