Not seen that before and some great memories in there. Good to see Big Trak in the top ten and I have very fond memories of the Evel Kenivel stunt bike :)

A walk down memory lane :) Had quite a few of the things in that list, though my favourite probably was my Death Star set ... the working trash compactor was a joy to behold. I used to go everywhere with my Han Solo figure, words can not encompass my grief at losing him during Empire Strikes Back :(

Spirograph was legendary!

Tbh Subbuteo should have been #1 though.

heh, I had number 91, it was ace :) The contacts were little springs that you shoved bare ended wire into.

My sister had a vertibird (no 64), Spirograph, I had Evil Knievel, Airfix model helicopter, a computer, and a bike (Grifter)!

I had a bunch of those games, and rather oddly, my daughters now have new versions of the same thing but with different names :eek7:

I had 91 and others like it and found by randomly connecting bits you could use a relay to create interference for terrestial TV - always good if somebody else was hoggin the tv...

Yep.. had most of them, and still got some either here or at parents house, including me D&D dice. I'm sure my Flight Deck plane was blue/grey though, not yellow.

They are making a chopper bike again, but it don't have the gearstick in the right place!

Battling Tops now known as Beyblade of course.
