80s toys I wish I could buy new for my kids!!

[BleachedWail]

My thoughts are turning to Christmas presents for my two five year old girls and as I look through the offerings of slime-pooing unicorns I wish they still made the 80s toys of my five year old dreams ....
Keypers
Brush a loves
Sweet Secrets
Pound Puppies

My girls would love them...someone would make a mint if they brought them all back!

We have a new guess who . The names all keep falling out. Weren’t they stickers originally? It was far better

Not this

agghhh

..... my DD has is and it gives me nightmares. I wonder at the mind that created it

I have just ordered the spider and the fly off eBay 😃. I really hope Ds lives it

I really wish I could buy my DC a Helix Treasure Chest

I loved mine so much. I wish I knew what happened to it. Every time I go into a charity shop I hope to see one.

I used to absolutely love my Chicago took him everywhere.
I also loved playing I Vant to Bite Your Finger game, I recently found one on EBay but it was really expensive.
Did anyone have a Rubiks snake?

Chicaboo, not Chicago!!

I managed to track down a teletubbies playset from the 90s that my DB and I loved as kids and gave it to DD. It's her favourite playset by far and cost me less than buying a current version.

My DM is a bit of a hoarder so DD has every single toy from my childhood available when she goes to Granny's house.

I have a Popple, Speak n Spell and the maths version.

All found in charity shop.

My middle dc would love an original Polly Pocket. The new ones don't look as good.

Anyone remember the Sweet Shop?

I loved how shitty the speak and spell was: “That is INCORRECT, the correct spelling of diplodocus is...”

Classic. Such a shame they don’t make them any more.

I had this and loved it!

I remember it looking better though

OrigamiZoo

OJESUSCHRIST!

No - it wasn't that one - it was like a big soft cat "teddy" toy - proper soft cat colours (ours was pale grey) - and it had a pouch inside that fastened with velcro, and small kittens about 3-4 inches long. They were lovely - not like that horror!

THIS website is so much fun for looking up the toys you used to have, it gave me shivers of nostalgia…

I had a red chimney which opened up. Does anyone remember these?

I do Cider - in fact, I think it was called the Big Red Chimney - definitely rings a bell.

Big Red Chimneypot, rather.

I had the MLP Paddock and the Sindy house with the lift and garage extension. I also remember Get Along Gang - anyone else? I had the haunted mansion and clubhouse caboose.

Oh and those little Tomy animals, palm pets?

As well as my Speak and Spell I would love to replace my ‘Little Professor’ and my Simon game.

I had lots mentioned already... as well as a Getalong gang bear.... dressed in an orange tracksuit with roller skates!

Ah here it is....

@zolaaa that was zipper. I have bingo and Woolma. I always wanted the lizard and crocodile (can’t remember their names) but didn’t get them as they were ‘baddies’
