After @lusidghost posted a pic of Stinkor, it brought me down memory lane. I was poor growing up and could not have my own toys. I enjoyed my friends toys from turtles to gi joes.
Hopefully this is a spot for people to reminisce and post collections.

Im currently helping my son collect Star Wars Black Series figurines. Ill post pica later.

I bet your parents bought you a pair of jeans for Christmas and cut the pockets out. You had something to wear and play with at the same time.

Frankenstein's Monster style figures from thrift stores held together with string and rubber bands. I beat my toys up, and then threw them off of the porch with plastic bag parachutes. Good times

This was a gateway drug. I believe they made an edible Plastigoop. And the magnificently unsafe small appliance was called a Thingmaker.
