    AMG I don't know why, but while i was surfing i decided to look at old toys I might of once had.

    I came across this Barbie doll... I never owned this one in particular, but it brought back memories and... I was like..I AM OLD LOL....

    I remember when this one came out back in the 80s....

    These are two I actually had 😀 Too bad i cut all their hair off LOL...

    At least you don't remember the toys of the 70's like I do 😛

    One of the things I remember spending hours playing with are these:

    Combined with legos and lincoln logs inside, or dirt, rocks, and sticks outside and you have hours of fun 😀

    too many hours with those guys. We used to build huge bases of sand and dirt on the side fo the stream I grew up on.

    Weeble was #1 in the voting, Woolly Willy #2
    I voted for both, but I really liked Woolly Willy the best.

    Man I had that EXACT same set of soldiers! It came with the "Guns of Navarone" mountain set. It was really cool. It had bunkers, gun emplacements, an elevator, vehicles and a whole set of german soldiers too. There was a pair of soldiers where one guy carried the other guy over his shoulders.

    I had japanese soldiers as well and various vehicles. The only problem with having figures from different bags/manufacturers is that sometimes they weren't the same scale or era. You'd have a 1-inch tall WWII soldier standing next to a 2-inch tall modern era solider. But I'd put them all in the same battle anyways. It'd take me a full day to set the battle up, all for about 5 minutes of actual "hostilities". 🔫
