my all time favorite is my die-cast metal set of the lion voltron, followed up by my optimus prime and contructacon set.



anyways, toys nowadays suck using cheap plastic parts. die cast metal toys back in the day were high quality and could resist alot of wear and tear.

The Millenium Falcon (from the ORIGINAL toy series made by Kenner I believe.)

Almost all my toys were Star Wars when I was little and the Millenium Falcon was my favorite (with the AT-AT a close second.)

Lazer Tag
Sky Command
The big Voltron with the castle and the action figures that could fit in the lions.
MASK
Marshall BraveStar.

Those were the biggies.
Although my C-64 probably got the most attention over the years.

That rev em up Evil Kneivel motorcycle thing, where you placed it on this stand, and your turned the big black wheel, then launched him..
followed by this football dude, where you hit him on the head hard, and he would kick field goals...

G.I. Joe by far was my favorite toy. Every week I'd get my allowance and go straight to Toys R Us and get a new G.I. Joe toy.

Darda cars and tracks

They were the cars that you pulled back with a spring action motor. They would haul ass. The tracks had these wicked loops and sometimes the tracks had "broken" loops where the car would fly through the air and then back onto track.
