oh yes! Those were awesome! We called the weeble people! Those, micro machines Teddy Ruxpin (hands down!) And the best yet, Charmkins!

Remember the Inch Worm? The one you ride? You bounce up and down on it and it to make it move.

Do you have a favorite toy that's not around anymore? What is it?

OMG-This is so freaky! This morning my dtr was asking me if I had seen the new baby caterpiller (Baby Einstein toy) and I asked her if she remembered the inchworm she had when she was little. She said she didn't and this is it! She called it her Viggalee Vurm (Wiggly Worm). We must have a little psychic thing going on, lol. My favorite was my American Plastic Building Bricks and my Whirly-Gig. (A 2-person riding spinner).

I had this other thing I loved that was a robot that you put tapes in that told you (I think) history-type things.

You reminded me of another one of my favs. Not sure if this is the one you are talking about, but I loved Alphie!

I actually think I had one of these too!

Maybe the one I'm thinking of is the newer version of the one you posted.

What i remember loving that they dont have anymore is Marshmellow krispies. Does anyone else remember those? It was a cereal... kinda like lucky charms but only rice krispies. It was so good, I wonder why they quit making it.

SweetPea53 · 11-13-2007, 06:04 PM

I used to love the Chattie Cathy Doll and the large dolls and my kids love Teddy Ruxpin. Ohhhh and what was the name of that doll that you could press a button and make her hair grow...I can't remember it right now

SweetPea53 · 11-13-2007, 06:05 PM

ohhhhhhhh just thought of another one that I don't think is around anymore...."Hands Down" !!!!! That was a fun game

This may show my age a bit (young'un) but I miss the Original Nintendo Entertainment System. I remember when my parents bought that for me and my siblings, and it was just the coolest thing ever then. Now it is nearly impossible to find one that works.

OMG Chatty Kathy and Patty Playful are my all time favorite dolls. I can't believe someone else remembers them

MeganS · 11-13-2007, 06:39 PM

My Size Barbie.

haha. Seriously. When I was 6 or 7, that was ALL I wanted for Christmas. I LOVED that thing. I don't think they make them anymore.

and Polly Pockets. <3 I played with those for hours. I'm pretty sure they put a recall on them because they were a choking hazard. and now they're big.

Then there's also Amazing Ally. But I didn't love her - I hated her. She was this doll that you would record your voice, and then when you talked to her she'd do stuff. I recorded when I had a cold, so then I couldn't use her once I got better.
