I mean actual toys not adult toys here.
What were you favourite toys of the eras and the ones that stick in your mind?
Personal favourites were
star wars figures & spaceships
He man figures
The weird named one that sticks in my mind:
The purple people eater |

My Tressy doll with the real growing hair out of a hole in the top of her head. I still have her and original outfit but lost the key for shortening her hair but a table knife works just as well.
I used to make pretendy road journeys on my bike and can still remember every pothole in the road and missing bit of kerbstone en route. |

I had a game called turbo tops, basically it was a spinning top you'd power by blowing down a straw, let them go and battle ina a small arena, would end up with a splitting headache after about 10 minutes of intense blowing to get the spinning top to shift as fast as you could  |
