Vintage toys

[littlebillie]

I am feeling nostalgic. So vintage toys I loved

Sindy -especially ice skating Sindy as she had a tragic back story

Piippa- mad about the shoes

Merlin- cutting edge electronic game which still works

Escape from Coldiz - brilliant board game

Bluebell and summer rose I believe 😃

Fuzzy felt... loved the hospital one.

omg fuzzy felt I loved that as a child and my dd26 had some as well also a big yellow teapot in fact we were talking about this the other day she was saying how she loved it and wants one for my dgd!!!

I love vintage toys. I can't leave behind vintage fisher price if I see it at a car boot or charity shop and I've got quite a big collection now. I've also got some original polly pockets, they are bringing the compact ones out again soon, available for preorder on Amazon.

@Notonyournelly98 I still have all my keepers, and 4 of those little dolls in the picture that you fold into the crystal ‘belly’ but I’ve never known what they’re called?

I also still have rainbow Brite dolls, she ra (never got the castle though ) polly pockets, popples and my barbie rockstars collection (I totally had a crush on Derek 💕)

Does anyone remember lady lovely locks? They had long hair plus little animal hair clips with hair extensions that you could use on the dolls or yourself?

Fisher price fire engine, which i still have.
Fisher price camera, it had 2 bits you could look through, 1 was normal, the other had pics of zoo animals. You could change the pics by pressing the button on top and a 'flash' would turn each time. Still got that too.
Sindy.
Original weebles. We had a play ground, many hours of fun were had with the roundabout.

Lights bright where you stick little cikoyred plastic pegs into black paper. And I loved quints dolls

Ive just googled my camera. John lewis still stock it. Omg!

Oh fuzzy felts were great weren't they?! We had the farm set.
Loving this thread

Pound Puppies. I desperately wanted one for christmas but the sold out so I got some random dog teddies instead.

I had the Strawberry Shortcake Fashion Wheel (similar to this photo) and it was my favourite toy for at least 6 months

@Notonyournelly98 I still have my swan keyper in my loft somewhere, was so excited when I opened it, something I actually asked for!

Holly hobby

Fuzzy felt, loved it and still got some in my old room at parents house. I’ve still got my a lot of
Blue Peter, Jackie, My Guy, Blue Jeans, Bunty, Mandy, Twinkle annuals as well.

Tiny tears
Teeny tiny tears
Frustration (board game)

Always sylvanian families, I still have most of mine and it takes me right back when I get them out of the loft to look at. I'm mean!!

Does anyone remember Viewmaster? Those camera style gadgets with pictures of scenes from films, or animals on them?

Another one for Polly pockets! I had pretty much all of them and I gave them all away. I also had Lucy Locket. I've seen one on eBay but it's £130! Polly pockets fetch a small fortune nowadays
Did notice they've had a face lift and are on sale from September. I've shown DD who is 4 and she's very excited about them- so looks like she'll be getting some for Christmas.
I also liked Sindy a lot more than Barbie.
I had one of those glow worm things as well, and lots of original trolls!
The yellow teapot rings a bell but I've never owned the tree.
Recently started getting DD into Enid Blyton but had to buy new books instead of reading my own old classics due to some of the characters not being very politically correct. We're currently reading Amelia Jane.

Major Morgan the electronic organ

Tried my best to get one off eBay when DD was younger but ££££ I LOVED it as a kid.

I loved this when I was younger. Also loved polly pockets, my little pony, Barbie, sylvanian families etc my mum got my old fisher price toys out for my ds. Have the record player and the till

Major Morgan!!!!! I'd forgot about him!

Whilst I find my Mum's inability to get rid of anything annoying at times it has its advantages in that we still have a lot of our child hood toys. Fisher Price house, camper van, some shoe thing, my little pony, flower fairies, FP record player - the telly sadly broke recently. Also we have the clock that played 'when the old man died'.

I had a lovely FP cot and highchair that I passed on to someone, managed to find the cot in a charity shop.

I also had the original sylvanian families house, it wasn't in the best of nick and I think our house move has pretty much finished it off - I need to decide what to do with it.

Aw Lucy locket! I had that

Kerplunk!!
