    I had a monkey, the thumb went in his mouth, and he was filled with Styrofoam beans. I called him B-52.

    Awww! I don't know if I had any one favorite as a kid. There are lots of pictures of me with piles of toys - I guess I was spoiled rotten! I really loved my Strawberry Shortcake and Cabbage Patch dolls. And I had a Holly Hobby doll that I slept with.

    One that really stands out from when I was pretty small was a tree house toy.

    I was big on legos and I liked just about any electronic game that involved buttons. I also always wanted my own etch a sketch so I LOVED playing w/ those at church and the doctor offices, etc. But yes, I got an original gameboy for Christmas in the early 90's and it was one of the best toys I ever had. I was also a book worm. :)

    oh where do I start??!! I loved smurfs (still do and have over 400 of them!), I loved my Crissy doll (still do!), legos and barbies. Dad built me a barbie house and Mum made all the furniture for it, my DD now has the furniture in her dolls house. I loved my Atari too and guess what I still do!

    I loved My Little Pony stuff and Strawberry Shortcake. I was never hugely into Barbie's, but I did get a huge Barbie Limo for my 16th birthday as a joke from a very dear friend.

    Oh... and I loved my Light Bright, or whatever it was called. You know, you plugged the little pegs into it and then turned it on and it lit up?

    Gosh - I can't even remember, lol... I remember my mom threatening to throw away my Fraggle Rock doll when I was about 4 if I didn't clean my room.. I must have cleaned right up, because I still have it, lol.. (also, just noticed these are selling for up to $170 - wowza!) My Little Ponies were a fave and I had a Samantha American Girl doll and a Lite Brite.. Oh - and one of those cabbage patch dolls you could adopt.. Mostly I just played dress-up, though.. :)

    One thing I remember from my VERY early childhood was my Raggedy Andy doll. I got it, because my nickname, even as an infant, was Andy. It was like 3 feet long. Bigger than I was at the time. [​IMG]

    I also had a Fisher Price pull-phone kinda like this one: [​IMG] I used to stand outside the bathroom when one of my parents was in it and talk to them on my phone.
