PIP Challenge! Thing you HAD to have when you were a kid.
What are some things that were really popular when you were a kid that you absolutely HAD to have?
Re: PIP Challenge! Thing you HAD to have when you were a kid.
I LOVED My Little Pony! I had tons of them!

Precious Places dollhouse:
Molly:
POGS:
And when I was older:
Tommy Jeans (which I never had a pair of)
And Doc Marten sandals (which I babysat for 3 months to save enough money for) (this is the pair I had too!):
I had to have my Barbies and My Little Ponies too. But, when I was little the gift I most remember being a must have, obsessive want was a Puppy Surprise:
I had the pink mom and 3 babies- mine were pink, tan, and black and white spotted.
Stand up for something you believe in.
The Hugga Bunch
The original Nintendo
Mall Maddness
Sadly, I never actually got any of these. I was such a deprived child
How could I forget...

Some of my must-haves (from what I can remember)
She-ra Crystal Castle & Horses
Jem Doll
Pink Barbie Plastic lunchbox (which I sadly never got)
Heart to Heart Bear
Popples. I had somewhere around 20.
I had one of these too! She had a red curl, so someone got her for me!

We played our Atari on the only T.V. we had.... theLiving Room black and white T.V.!
Ah....nostalgia at it's finest:
The Barbie PowerWheels Corvette:

Baby Heather:

PJ Sparkles:

My Wizard of Oz dolls--I was a WoO freak:

And of course, my Ghostbusters gear to beat my male cousins with:

I had an adult Furby, and a baby Furby. They were awesome until they would make random chirpy/jibberish noises in the middle of the night, and I'd wake up thinking my Furby was possessed.
ETA: this also:
I had a cheap version, but I loved it and carried it on my very important keychain that had, like, 1 key on it. lol
Evil. EEEEEEEViLLLLLL!!!!! *hiss, hiss*
My sister had one and all I remember about it was that it had the programming where you could "teach" it words. Hers didn't chirp in the middle of the night, but it did say some weird schit like: "Hello? Where are you?"
I kept telling my sister: Don't get it wet or feed it after midnight!!!
Haha, that is weird! I tried to teach mine words, but I couldn't figure it out and didn't have the patience to keep giving it "lessons." lol.
