    Legos for sure. Can't wait to have kids so I can play with them again.

    Sundry star wars figures. I even had the death start thing.

    Can't believe I forgot about my BB gun! Spent many hours shooting pop cans in the back yard as a kid.



    Understandable that it didn't come to mind when I was thinking about toys, though...

    My fav toy...



    My Mac LC 520! and it still is...



    Mind you that I am 16 and the LC 520 is 10.



    Now I know some old man is going to say something to the tune of...



    "Well when I was your age our computers filled a room and they were not toys!" or "I would walk 30km to the nearest computer and I would not be using it to play"



    I am young,
