Toys and Games you used to have.

There may be a similar thread somewhere, but it's hard to find it using the search button.

Does anyone remember a board game called Kensington?
It was game of the year in 1980 or something.
We really enjoyed it for a couple of weeks, and I've never heard of it since.

Other games I remember having off the top of my head;
A Batman Hat
Evil Keneevil
Buckaroo
Those Robot Boxers with the necks that came up.
Simon
And something called a 'Sonic ear' you could point it and hear things from really far away in very low quality.

I still have my Simon. I had an Evel Knievel bike too. I have Evel somewhere, minus one hand. it's tough at the top.

Mousetrap.
Action Man, Tank, Plane & Jeep (still have somewhere)
Loads of Lego (still have somewhere)
Mechano
Air Fix kits - various war planes
A few Star Wars figures (still have somewhere)
Scaletrix

Me too!

I had a 'Hulk Hogan' action figure, and a small ball.

I also had a cat litter tray in the corner to pooh in.

Re: Simon
Have you seen the new crazeee one they have?

Whip it! Pull it! Spin it!
My nephew got one for Christmas, it was well annoying.

I had no toys.

I sometimes used to play with some small stones that I found in our gutter.

But mainly I was sweeping chimneys in my childhood.

Stretch Armstrong!

It's called 'Bop IT'...

YOu're not down with the kiddies Fred.

I remember getting very excited when I was a kid to get the Action Man Submarine. Then being slightly less excited when as soon as I put it in the bath it immediately broke.

Ah bath time...it was great being a kid.

Did you ever bath with your sister?

Rubbing my nose in it still?

I hope it gets cyber rabies and bites your nuts.

Oooh my cousin had that! I was well jealous.

I remember bugging my mum for a train set when I was a kid. My lovely mother bought it for me, and f**king expensive it was too.

A circle bit of track and a boring "modern" looking train.

Choo choo!

I've got the Spitting Image board games some where.

Does anyone remember Scruples?

Also any old school Talisman fans here?
