What toys did you play with, especially in the 60's and 70's?

I love this question. I mean, I really love it. I just had the best time remembering all of these.

Legos

Etch-a-sketch

Slinky

Texaco fire chief helmet

Lone Ranger cap gun, holster, hat and mask

Johnny West (and that beautiful, beautiful palomino Thunderbolt)

Stuffed animals of all kinds, including all the Steif I could get

A few dolls, including Barbie, Raggedy Ann, some Madame Alexander dolls

Talking pull-string dolls like Chatty Cathy, Bugs Bunny, Larry the Lion, Bozo the Clown

Paper dolls

Hand puppets, including Charlie Horse, Lampchop, Cecil (from Beanie & Cecil)

Gumby and Pokey

Pickup Sticks

Matchbox cars

Britain's marching band - could have been the Scots Guards or the Coldstream Guards or who knows? Impossible to tell from the bad pics online and my memory.

Britain's zoo

Marx Disney miniatures

A set of French Provincial doll furniture

Jack Built snap wooden train set

Zylopipes

Nerf balls

Magic slate

You didn't ask about games and books, or this list would have been even longer!

Late 1950s/early 1960s for me. My favourites were, and still are (I have a huge collection now) Britains & similar toy soldiers, cowboys/indians, knights, farm, zoo, etc., in plastic, plus as many of the old lead ones I could find in the few old fashioned toy shops that had a few left.

@ suedeeni....

The Britains band were Scots Guards, and part of their 'Eyes Right' series of ceremonial soldiers, which had moving heads and arms, but not changable bodies & legs like their 'Swoppets' range. Their Swoppets 'Wars of the Roses' knights set go for silly money on eBay, especially if in rare colours.

As for the Marx Disney figures, I think you'll like this website:

Should be a real trip down memory lane for you. Enjoy.

I've added you to my contacts list in case you would like to be reminded of your old Britains stuff. I could scan & send photos of relevent parts of my collection, including a still in its original box Scots Guards 'Eyes Right' band!

Legos and rockem sockem robots
