Toys Of Christmas Past

[pirate]

No mention yet of a Hoop and Stick ?

rich bast*rd
it was hoop OR stick in our house

Every year I wanted an Evel Knievel toy. Every year I was disappointed. Never forgiven my parents for that.

I had one, it was shit

Pogo stick, space hopper, roller skates, battling tops was a brilliant game.

Johny Seven - one man army
It had a pistol, rifle, machine gun, grenade launcher, rocket launcher and two other weapons of mass destruction that I can't quite recall. Boomtastic!
Subbuteo cricket was good. Used to play test matches that would last a whole day!

I dreamed of getting a Jonny Seven but never did. There were four of us kids and it was also my brother's birthday on Christmas Day so, quite rightly, he was the priority present-wise. What I did get was Subbuteo Angling which was actually a bit shit. Never a Christmas went by, though, when we didn't get a football each which we had to run outside and play with immediately.

There's quite a few versions of the game with different box fronts.

I'm on the one which has David Gower & Ian Botham on.
