    Talking Kitt car from the Knight Rider TV show. I actually got it for Christmas one year BUT it came with two left doors in the package so I couldn't assemble it correctly. My mom promised to swap it out. She took it back to the store but didn't come back with a new one :(

    POW-POW-POWER WHEELS!

    But all in all I was a very fortunate child with loving parents who did their best. I was just not a child on wheels.

    A big wheel! My parents though they were too dangrous because you couldn't hear cars coming (and we didn't have sidewalks). :grumble:

    I really wanted one of these as well! They were really expensive back then though, and they can be bought relatively cheaply now, so my kids are definitely getting one and being forced to ride in it whether they want one or not, ha.

    I wanted to be a tiny (10" tall) person so I could go swimming in the bathtub as often as I wanted. I loved swimming and we couldn't afford a pool.

    Teddy Ruxpin. I got a Casey instead. I used to put my Madonna tape in it and laugh like crazy when he would mouth the words to "Like a Virgin" :laugh:

    Pretty much sums up my childhood--wanted one, had a lot of other awesome childhood memories (loving parents, etc.), and when I have children.... they will definitely have one. They might have to fight me over who gets to drive it, though.

    A Sit N Spin. It always looked like fun.

    So when I was about 25 years old, and my then toddler nephew got one, I said I wanted to try it. My family said I wouldn't fit.

    I did. And it was awesome.

    A baby elephant would be so fun! You could probably find one in Thailand at lead to say hi to.
