Toys

Are there any toys from your childhood that you would buy again to play with as an adult. Where Can I buy a Johnny 7 from?

Still have all my Star Wars figures and all my subbuteo kit in the loft. I think the Brighton 83 team are all now disabled though having been knelt on several times and snapping them at the knees.

Argh that thing used to piss me off SO much. To be honest, I never really got the hang of the first bit, and even if I could get it quickly I couldn't get it up onto the platform at the end to continue. The maze used to piss me off as well!

Any of the youngsters remember these beauties:

And it's big brother:

Couldn't actually do anything with them but I could watch the thing going round for hours.
