Weren't the originals taken of the market due to a safety concern ?

This is truly the saddest (meaning most pathetic) thread I've seen in a long time.  I'm sorry you were all so poverty stricken that the height of amusement was a box or a stick  >:D  Just kidding guys.  I didn't know I was from an affluent family who could afford real toys.

For me (and this is telling my age) it was my Strombecker 1/32 scale slot car set and my Kenner Girder and Panel Building set.  If you've never heard of them, check out eBay.

OMG - Yes!  I forgot all about the Girder and Panel Building Set - I got one for my 5th birthday (48 years ago).  I could create a Jetsons "City of the Future" with that conglomeration of plastic pieces that today's kids would be guaranteed to choke on.   I played with it so much that eventually all the corners broke off the panels and I had to use scotch tape to hold my skyscrapers together.

I was a toy soldier boy. I used to set up a vast produced battlefields and income war. I liked also legos and puppets.

Here was one of my favorites!

Playmobile Dashboard - Deluxe Reading 1961 - Much larger than the Firebird 99. Very detailed. Battery powered. Working motor, 2 wiper blades, sun visors, directional signals & horn. Gauges and key for ignition.
