While I was growing up, some of the key toys I had gotten were Legos and G.I. Joes. I used to have a rather decent collection of Joes, back then. I don't really remember what happened to them. But I had stuff like a Cobra tank and a "good guy" tank. I don't even remember what the factions were called, haha. But the "good guy" tank was my favorite. It had a front compartment that opened up by retraction of the top canopy. And as it opened up backwards, diagonally, a rack of missles/rockets pop out. Must of held eight to ten launchables.
I don't really recall the names of everything I had. But it will forever be burned into my memory of how those action figures worked. Torso held onto the pelvis + legs with a black rubber band. It was awkward even then, as I used to compare its quality with the other kinds of figurines that I'd get.
As for Legos, I didn't have a whole lot of sets or variety of themes. I did however have a ton of general pieces that of which I'd put together and make stupid things. Only because I didn't know any better, back then. As for today, I've got the Mos Espa Pod Racer set, a Clone Trooper Gunship, and a Ferrari Enzo build lying around.
I'm also actively collecting the Final Fantasy Play Arts figurines. Regrettably, I've joined in the game a bit late, so not everything I want is easy to get as it may have been before.
Jam it back in, in the dark.
