Family friends had one and I was always terrified.

Loving these 80s/90s threads! Rainbow Brite, Care Bears, Cabbage Patch Kids, Glow Worms, Barbies, Polly Pocket, Beanie Babies, American Girl, Skip It, Slap Bracelets (guess it's not really a toy..) Toys were better back then!!
-
@Rubies: @Mrs. Lemon-Lime: I had a Teddy Ruxpin lunchbox... he was creepy!
-
Tamagotchi (: (late 90's but still awesome)
-
I loved Care Bears, Popples, Rainbow Brite and Pound Puppies. We never had a Teddy Ruxpin, but we had a Big Bird that was sort of the same concept. It would read us Sesame Street books and it's beak and eyes would open and close. Creepy in retrospect but we loved that thing!
-
i don't think i had a single popular toy. not even a barbie, bike, cabbage patch kid, care bear, etc. we just played outside!
-
Loved Quints!
-
Pogo ball!

@Rubies: @MCD919: awe, the toy trauma! Lol
-
Polly Pocket!
-
@Danizaur: This was a good link!
I hate the doctor kit now. ours has a case but its so hard to get all the pieces in!
I agree, I hate all the faces on stuff now. So animated and leaves nothing to the imagination.
-
Popples, Care Bears, Cabbage Patch Kids, Strawberry Shortcake, My Little Pony, Rainbow Brite

I was totally in love with my Lite Brite! And then once I was a bit older I was all about my giga pet and pokemon cards, haha.
-
I had the LiteBrite with the pegs, total choking hazard, lol!
-
Jem all day.
-
@Rubies: Omg I had an easy bake oven for a few short days but my mom made me return it before I even got to open it... One of the biggest disappointments of my life!! Also my sticker book was my prized possession...
Also loved my cabbage patch dolls..
-
I loved my Rainbow Brite, Cabbage Patch Kid, Barbies, and My Little Pony. I also liked Strawberry Shortcake, but I don't remember having any of the toys, just sneakers. I also loved Tamagotchi, even though I was kind of old when those came out.
-
I was all about the Magic Nursery Dolls. My BFF and I had 14 of them between us!
-
Totally Hair Barbie, Baby Alive, Kitty Surprise... All favorites!
I desperately wanted this cash register/conveyer belt toy, but never got it!! I still remember how much I wanted it. It would beep when you scanned the items, and the little conveyer belt was battery operated. I blame not getting this toy on why I got a job as a grocery store cashier at 15, ha!
-
@Pepper: we wanted this, too!!!
-
@pui: ME TOO!!!
Add to the list:
my Easy Bake oven & the doll who has the color changing hair (when water is applied) -
@LovelyPlum: I wish it was still for sale! I'd totally buy it now.
-
Cabbage Patch Kid (her name was Nancy), Lite Brite, Popples, Care Bears, My Little Ponies.
In the 90s I loved my Skip Hop, Polly Pockets, and Rainbow Brite stuff.
-
@Rubies: I love all of those! But I never had an Easy Bake Oven either and want to get one for Lady M (secretly so I can play with it!) I also loved Strawberry Shortcake, Fashion Plates, Colorforms and those Shrinky Dinks that you would put in the toaster over.

@TheSwissWifeStyle: Yes! "Jem is my name, no one else is the sa,me, Jem is my name!"

@T-Mom: Sticker book!!!!! I just found mine recently and can you believe that my scratch and sniff stickers still smell??? 30 years later?? What is in those things?! Creepy!
-
Sorry to obsess about stickers but anyone remember these? http://www.liketotally80s.com/scratch-sniff-stickers.html
I LOVED these and my teachers totally gave these out! I wish I had these for my students now! -
@Pepper: my nana still has that!!! She saved all my toys (I'm the oldest) & all my cousins played with them. Now Chloe does!
The 80s/90s toys are the best. I can't believe how well they've lasted!
-
@Mrs. Jump Rope: Ahhh I'm totally jealous right now!
-
@travellingbee: Yes! I loved those and think I have some of the same ones in my old sticker books.
Do kids still have sticker books? And fortunately my parents still have all my cabbage patch, care bears, etc so I can't wait to share with M!
-
Maddy has my cabbage patch dolls, carebears, and my little ponies!

I've wondered about letting my LO play with my old baby toys. I doubt the plastics back then were bpa free and I wonder if over time the plastic is breaking down...? My mil gave DS some old little chew-toys of DH's and I've worried about letting him play too much with them. Anyone have any thoughts on that?
Family friends had one and I was always terrified.
