in Chit-Chat
i had a few, but these stand out.

i fought lots of battles with my box of these:

i got all of the originals when they movie came out in 1977. wish i had them now in box and in mint condition. i suspect they'd be worth something to collectors.

this made the school bus rides fun.

    Probably my Barbie dolls and their accessories (like the Dream House and pool). My parents still have all of my toys in their attic...worth something today? Maybe...

    In Kindergarten this girl was waving a My Little Pony around by it's tail and it smacked me in the head pretty badly. I hated those things after that experience.

    I've always been quite the nerd (and maybe a bit of tomboy) so I loved my Rubik's Cube, Tinker Toys, Lincoln Logs, and Erector Set :) (I guess I played with my share of Barbie too)
