I had HeMan figures, always wanted an Optimus Prime but never got it. Also Thundercats too, I remember having an Eye of Thundera sword that lit up.
My two favourites were: inflatable he-man Weeble wobble thing. Used to love fighting with that in the garden.
Street hawk motorcycle helmet, which had a ‘street hawk’ launcher when the helmet was opened so the motorbike and rider would shoot out at LIGHTENING speed. Or so it seemed to my 3/4 year old self.
Happy memories.
Did anyone have this back in the 80s I got one for.xmas back then. RALEIGH WILD CAT BIKE
Remote controlled KITT was my favourite, also had the A-Team van & figurines of the characters. Simpler times…!!!
Did anyone ever actually get a Mr Frosty? It was always on my Santa list. And as a parent there is no way on earth I’d buy that for me kids!
Ah, the jealousy one Christmas when my older brother got a Star Wars AT-AT…all coming back to me.
I had a karate kid play set. Daniel had a sprung arm which smashed through some blocks of fake wood. There was a set of chopsticks with a fly attached on a string with the aim being to catch the fly with the chopsticks.

So much so I wanted to be a transformer when I was older.
