Best christmas toy ever?

schwartz · Nov 26, 2004, 11:10 AM

Although being the men we are who only take pleasure in cars, high 3d marks, and pornography; I was just wondering what you guys think is the best christmas toy of all time; past or present, and whether you actually recieved it or not.

Me myself I still have to go with my Winchester pellet gun. The classic christmas toy no?

But hot damn that robosapien is lookin fancy, good grief they even reviewed it in PC gamer eh.

My G.I. Joe Headquarters Command Center -- it was awesome.

It took me 20 minutes to find that picture.

Plus, it took me about six months before I figured out that the rocket launcher on the back of the yellow lion was retractable - it was such a tight fit that I never knew you could pull it out! ... lol

My favorite action figures were razor ramone (scott hall) and spiderman, they were sworn enemies(I liked them both because they had awesome joints, well made) but everytime I greater enemy would arise (new robo toy, power rangers/voltron) they would join forces and try to defeat the same enemy, I had a vivid imagination when I was a kid, I could play with my action figures for hours and hours. Sadly when I left germany I left most of my stuff there.I'll probably go back and get my old toys.

But those 2 could never beat him, they almost did in the battle of bureau but he got away =/

Ne0Griever · Nov 26, 2004, 12:54 PM

I always thought those Power Wheels were cool. Unfortunatly, I was to old for them when they came out.

Rippthrough · Nov 26, 2004, 12:57 PM

I want a Rover 400 and £7500 for Christmas.
Hey, come back.

Robotzombie · Nov 26, 2004, 01:01 PM

My NES with the Mario/Duck hunt dual cartridge and the Light Gun (grey, not orange, beeyotch).

By far, no contest.

Man that cracks me up for so many reasons. When I was really young I watched so many robot centered cartoons and movies I convinced myself that I didn't really belong to my family and I was just a really well made android! Imagnination man, wacky

shockwave · Nov 26, 2004, 02:15 PM

this had to be my favorite christmas toy ever. it was a Knex rollercoaster pack that could make two coasters, and you could take it apart and make whatever else you wanted. I used to spend hours playing with this damn thing, and tweaking it to make it go as fast as possible
