Oh No! Do you realize that baby had a 100 watt incandescent light bulb? Simply sinful.

Am I so old that they don’t have history for my birth year? No toys back then? I hear rocks were new thing that year....

Nope. No toys for us.
We got coal.
And we were glad to get it...

You know what? We opened gifts last night and my lovely wife gave me this very item.... I always wanted one as a kid and now I have one after almost 55 years on this earth.

1964. Horrible Hamilton. I had one. A big , green windup bug monster.

The Walkman didn’t make the list? It was the most desirable object of it’s time with several years of upgrades.
To: bgill
This was my first BB gun...
Crossman started making them in 1966. It was the best BB gun I ever used. Not as good as a pump pellet gun, but lost of fun. I would still have it except my folks' house was broken into when I was away in college, and this is what the thieves took.
Wonder now if it can still be found anywhere...

What are you old guys complaining about?
You guys had the best toy of all time.

At least you got to play outside.
To: McGruff
Same here. As a joke, much later in life, my wife got me one for Christmas. LOL

So weird. I was just thinking about this game the other night at a Boy Scouts Christmas party Secret Santa exchange. We had hours of fun with this thing! My Dad even liked it.
