My favorite toys growing up in the 70s, as I was a teenager and out of high school by the mid 80s, were Legos, Hot Wheels track set, Lionel train, The Green Machine, Silly putty, Stretch Armstrong, Pong, and a ton of board games and my favorite of all what my Schwinn 2sp bike that I bought at a yard sale down the block for $3 (after a bit of dickering lol). I had older cousins that would pass down toys and had a ton of them come thru' the house at one point or another. ...and I liked to read as well so a lot of books were passed down/gifted to me also.

4:06 Chucky from AliExpress, that’s hilarious!😂

🎶"Mon-chichi .. Monchichi, oh so soft and cudd-l-y" 🎵

Anyone catch Garrin saying he would appreciate anything? Such a wonderful family and those kids are being raised right!! :)

Greetings from Texas! Howdy y'all! Jono I just wanted to say that you talking about how those dolls with the moving mouths and eyes freaked you out. Reminded me of one Christmas long after I had grown up and my daughter was six years old. I wanted to get her something really special for that particular Christmas. So I bought her one of the most advanced baby dolls of that time. It's eyes opened and closed. It actually slept until you woke it up by either picking it up or saying something near it that triggered it's voice activation mode. It could actually respond to multiple questions that its little computer brain could recognize. So Christmas night after my daughter had gone to bed while munching on Santa's cookies that she had left out as well as putting a couple of drops of red dye into the cup of water that she left out specifically for Rudolph the Red nosed reindeer. ( The red coloring in the half emptied glass of water, obviously being indisputable proof that Rudolph's red nose had been dipped in it while he was drinking. ) I took the Baby Doll out and put in it's batteries because my plan was to just leave it under the tree in plain sight so that it would be the very first present she saw. Plus it would wake up open it's eyes and it's mouth and lips would realistically move while it spoke to her. Either good morning, or I want to play, and a few other random responses to being woken up. So everything was ready and I had just finished setting everything up and I was smugly appreciating the wonderful Christmas morning the all that money I spent on that very expensive doll. Was going to make it a Christmas that my daughter would always remember. Within just a couple of minutes of me sitting down and enjoying all the twinkling colorful Christmas lights on the Christmas tree with all the presents neatly arranged for maximum impact on a six year olds imaginative brain. In walks my older brother Rob. Who had just gotten home from the movies with friends and apparently had stopped for a few drinks on the way home. I greeted him and saw that he was in s particularly good mood. When he suddenly stopped in his tracks looking at the expensive baby doll under the tree. He said " WOW! You got her a new doll!" And I proudly confirmed his observation. Rob leaned down and picked up the doll. As soon as he stood up. Of course the doll opened its eyes and said with it's moving mouth and lips. " Hello! Do you want to play?" Before I could say anything Rob screamed and threw the doll across the living room. Where luckily it landed on the sofas well padded cushions. I freaked out because I thought he'd just destroyed the doll and I was going to be left with little choice but to have to kill my older brother on Christmas Eve. But when I jumped up yelling at him and frantically picking up and examining the doll. Rob obviously felt bad about having thrown his beloved niece's Christmas present across the room. But the Doll turned out to be just fine and disaster was averted and I breathed a sense of relief that I didn't have to end my brothers life on Christmas Eve. after all. Turns out the part of the reason for his very terrified reaction was that he and his friends had just come back from watching the movie Chucky for the very first time. Reality is often stranger than fiction. And this series of unfortunate events was the proof of the saying. I'll never forget it. BTW my daughter still talks about that Christmas with her own 19 year old daughter. So I guess despite everything. I was successful.

Oh, man. The Garbage Pail Kids were so awesome back in the day.

Y'all should do a reaction to 80s cartoon series, see if the family enjoys them or not.

I was 13 in 1980 so my toys were a generation before these. I had the original G.I Joes that were much, much larger than they were in the 80's. They were approx. twice as large as the average Barbie doll. In addition to the action figures, I had a Jeep for them and the trailer that it could pull which had a removable spotlight mounted on it. Those things would be worth a fortune today.

I remember the stompers..loved them

Stompers were pretty cool, my brother had about 30 of them. I found a couple of them that my mother kept and they still work after 40 years!

Gen X'er's are the best generation. The best time to be a kod/teenager was the 70's and 80's.

Teddy ruxpin. some people would put ac/dc or other crazy music cassettes into those and the doll goes wild. It lead to a lot of burned out teddies. The problem was the voice modulation system and motor control system was connected to the same thing which was supposed to move to a story being played but it didn’t quite work right. The circuit basically burned themselves out when too much movement was detected. A new mp3 version was introduced in the early 2010s but it never took off. Good times.

Stompers were one of my favorites as a kid

My uncle gave me a bunch of Matchbox and Hotwheels cars when I was a kid. I added to them and passed most of them down to my little brother. Passed the collection on to my niece and she has over 4,000 of them hanging on her walls still in the package. For ever one on her wall she has a duplicate that she played with. She has around 5,400 that are not in packages. I was smart enough as a kid to collect 5 of each of the Hotwheels cars issued with the McDonald's Happy Meals. I kept complete sets of them still in the packages as the ones from McDonald's were specifically made for the Happy Meals. I recently sold a set of all the cars released in the 1980s Happy Meals for $5,000 to a collector. Not a bad profit for 40 Hotwheels cars that I paid 50 cents each for.

The Cabbage Patch Kids were hyped so much that when they finally got to the stores here there were people getting into fights over them. There is a lady currently serving a life sentance for murder in my state because she shot and killed a grandmother of 2 because the grandmother refused to give her one of the dolls she had waited for 19 hours in line to buy them for her twin granddaughters. I don't know how many people were arrested for assault charges. My grandmother collected dolls and when she passed away there were 2 of them in her collection still in the original unopened boxes.

Ladies and Gentlemen, as you can see what occur at 20:25 is the lost art of cartridge blowing. Long forgotten as the disk era took over. A true gamer at heart lol.

I think you should do 80's hair styles and 80's hair bands and 80's gadgets not toys!

After you named all four TNMT your wifes face expression, she looked like, oh christ, why does he know this.. LOL

All these toys are worth a lot of money now I had lots of great toys wish I had them now like the GI Joe’s I had about eight of them now they are worth about 700 to 1000 dollars or more each now.😢

I love my Gloworm!!! Still have it and got a mini one too!!!

I bought my twins each a GloWorm/GloPuppy when they were little. I did the same for my grandkids and great-great-nephews. Just bought the youngest boy a seahorse one for Christmas last year.

5:37 You should all watch the movie Masters of the Universe then. 👍🏼

TONKA TOYS Was A Thing When I Was A Kid

I had the original GI Joe. Mine was 12 inches tall. The GI Joe came out in the 60s.

That was cool because even though i was old enough that I didn't Play with toys i knew of them but i did have Nintendo

Jono, HE MAN IS ON KZfaq! free and all episodes

Great as always! One crazy thing a out old video games is they pretty much cost the same $30-$55 as they do now. For the horse fan react to Secretariat...the best American race horse who is from farm close to me

$80 dollars in 1985 is $284 today.

I have an original trvial pursuit. Wow this video brought back so many memories. ❤

Jono, You get a Teddy Ruxpin and play Ozzy Ozbourne tapes in him. Make the parents freak out!

The thing about those days is we needed an imagination to bring our toys to life.

My mom sold all my he men, gi joes, star war, and transformers toys at a garage sale for a quarter apiece. I’m still bitter at her, and I’m 48 now.

I loved Transformers when I was a kid. I liked them in vehicle mode more than robot mode, though as I thought the robot mode seemed more fragile and a little klunky and awkward to hold when playing. I would buy them today and set them up on a a shelf or in a display case. the jets were my favorite.

I think Lea's going to be a barber. 😆

Mon-chichi, Monchichi, oh so soft and cud-dle-ly, with his thumb in his mouth he’s really neat, fun to fiddle with his little feet, yah yah yah..yah yah yah, Happy, happy Monchichi!

I'm happy to see stumpers on here in grade school. we would modify them and race them in the sandbox❤

In reference to He-Man, you should check out the movie, Masters of the Universe. It stars Dolph Lundgren as He-Man.

My children were both born in the 80's 😂 they think back to how many they wished they had saved... to me toys are supposed to be played with ❤ resale value is not a memory 😊

Back in the 60s we had GIJoe but her was 16inches tall and they sold different uniforms and accessories and vehicles for him.

do 90s next! :p my childhood heh

The $79 Nintendo would’ve cost $245 today

If you have toys from 80's left somewhere in the house always check for the batteries. Because sometimes even without the batteries toys can move and talk to you, be careful. Some of them want to be your friend till the end

My first Transformer was "Starscream".

You haven’t lived until you’ve put an ozzy osbourne tape in a teddy ruxpin 😂😂😂😂😂😂

Trivial Pursuit was and is fun to play, I was 14 when it came out. The Star Wars figures are worth quite a bit. It depends on what it is and the rarity of it. In the early 70's I had a G.I. Joe, some of the vehicles, and accessories.

7:00 He is correct. It's not this doll, But there was a Cabbage Patch Snacktime doll that would eat kids fingers too. One of the worst toys ever. The doll was built around what was essentially a power tool that could crimp gutter.

There was three movies done back in the 80s

23:04 Mark! 1,279 Views + Mine! 😎 Thumb Up #347! 👍 You're welcome, and thanks! 😊 Notes: I missed out on so many toys! 😢 However, I was collecting comics and trading cards and viewing television series and movies. Because I was at "Pizza Hut" if there was a tie-in toy product, I would have had access to those. The "NES" is the only one in the list that I bought for myself! I may have bought some of the others as gifts, though. 🤔 One of my college art professors showed us his expensive Japanese toy robots that could transform into other toys! They weren't promoted as aliens yet with a story. They were just toys that could be played with in more than one way. 😎 "Mattel" had the license to make the toys for Arnold's first "Conan" movie. But they were shocked by the sex and violence and the rating the movie got because of it! So they quickly had to recalibrate after cancelling their deal and suddenly "Conan the Barbarian" became "He-Man"! 😮

Hello From Texas

they remake the heman and tmnt original style toy line now

14:43 😂😂

I know all the toys, but I didn’t have any of them, as I was 19 in 1980

I still have my cabbage patch kid and pound puppy

The ninja turtles movies came out in the 90's, and are far better then the new ones!

The 1980s GI Joes were terrible compared to the much bigger GI Joe action figures that I grew up with. I only had a couple of them and I really enjoyed having imaginary adventures and battles with them. But my Rich cousins had over two dozen GI Joe action figures and all the accessories that you could get to put on them like a wetsuit, ( they called them Frogmen back then.) , several different real cloth uniforms, different weapons, all the action vehicles that were available like the assault Dunbuggy and the Black Ops speed boat, the communications truck that opened up that you could play with all the communications equipment inside the you could, use the communications handset, ( looked like sn old school rotory dial phone receiver.) , and many other movable dials and levers to play with as well as simulated panels full of radar screens and red blue and green simulated lights everywhere. Of course being from a pooer family I was immensely envious of all that they had. But I noticed that they didn't take near the Care of their toys as my brothers and I did. These were the best action figures ever! And my brothers and I spent countless hours playing with them living in a world of imaginary adventure, Danger and Conflict. For a young boy in the sixties and seventies. There was nothing better. Long before even video arcades were a thing much less home video games. This was our Xbox and Play stations. Our imaginations were so much better than any video games I've ever seen since.

put it this way 20 dollars back in the 80's brought you a week of groceries or more in the US.

I've collected transformers for 40 years and have over 2500.

Have Y'all Seen The Movie "Smokey and The Bandit"

Caitlin Clark

The cabbage patch doll garren is talking about was real!!! And it did scalp a few kids!!!

The first TMNT movie was in 1990...

Not JUST the Gameboy with bad battery

I'm sure others mentioned it, but is there a reason they don't have AC's in their country? Given they're always complaining about heat. And an AC is only $150 for a window unit?

👍👍

Oh how I miss the nes now with duck hunt it had this doggy who giggled when you missed so annoying

When the say it's hot their how hot does it get

@davidpittman90 I still have my 44 year old son’s Star Wars, Castle Greyskull and HeMan action figures (lots of them) with their accessories, Super-friends Hall of Justice, TMNT garbage can toy box filled with at least 40 action figures with accessories, a carrying case full of Construx, about 10 boxes of sleeved & cardboarded DC comic books (mostly Superman, Spider-Man and Venom) and a whole assortment of Batman figures and Batmobiles.

I had a teddy bear that took the cassette tape or when that thing quit working batteries or something to mechanism in between the mouthpiece and everything and sound like a demon come alive scared to live in daylights out of me

I apologize for not knowing their names but where is the mom from originally? I like her accent but it’s definitely not South African.

5:17 Not an appropriate comment by the narrator. My brother and I loved Care bears when we were growing up in the 80s and 90s. When we went to the theater to see a Care bear film we weren't the only boys in line.

Especially watch out for Teddy Ruskin or whatever it’s called, if you get to close when it’s mouth is open it will swallow your soul

BRING BACK LAWN DARTS.

Your dad had toys. Obviously he lied to the kids… You can tell because he knew all these toys. Your poor mom 😂

this guy got so many things messed up on dates to releases. Funny thing about the Mario Brothers game is that it was released on the Atari 2600 first Not Nintendo second it was released in Arcades then onto the Nintendo home console as most think it was on Nintendo first. Atari helped with coding the early first Nintendo games and made a deal with the company to release some of their titles first on Atari as Atari still owns all rights to Donkey Kong, popeye & Pac-man. Go-Bots released first Not Transformers and had a cartoon game and figures all before Transformers released anything. TMNT released comic in 82 and Rocksteady was never part of the original comic as all the Turtles wore Red Bandas and Shredder was killed in the first comic book as the TMNT comic was supposed to be a Joke reasons why Marvels Daredevil is in the comic.

Hot? It's supposed to get to 43.33°C here on Friday.

Screw 80 toys 70’s were more real no punk toys

Well they didn't show mask toys they didn't show the thundercat toys and they didn't show Ghostbusters toys

My little pony, Care Bears and anything similar are all vessels for Satan’s demons

I remember stompers. Where yo ball?
