Top Toys of the 70's and 80's

Curtsy to Ohio Guy for this one. Direct link above, or at his site if you want to check out which one's out of the 100 he wrote about. As I went thru the pages, these called out to me:

97 - Weebles - I liked Weebles because they wobbled but they never fell down. Trust me, my kids tried enough to make them fall down. Bad side to weebles? They hurt if they threw them at each other.

91 - Electronic Project/Chemistry set - Man I hated it when people bought that crud for the kids especially my son. They never did what they stated and there was never ever 50 in one (or any other number in one)

86 - Sorry - We still play that here at times, really it's a twist on Parchesi but it is easier to say...

54 - Mousetrap - My kids never liked this one but I did.

47 - Operation - The only game I ever heard my father swear at when he tried to play it with the kids...

13 - My little Pony...I think between the four girls? We owned every one made as well as the dinnerware, sheets, quilts and everything else My Little Pony ever made.

If you want a walk down memory lane? The creators of this top 100 have alot more at:
