POLL: Your "red ryder bb gun"
What was your "red ryder bb gun"? In other words, what was the toy that you desparately wanted for Christmas (or a birthday if you don't celebrate Christmas) as a child?
Was there any toy that you really, really wanted but never received?
Warning
No formatter is installed for the format bbhtml
Re: POLL: Your "red ryder bb gun"
I really wanted the Barbie Malibu Dream House, but never got it. I got the townhouse with the elevator instead.
Other than that, Cabbage Patch Kids were probably my most coveted toys. I wish I had kept them.

16 read! my read shelf:
Teddy Ruxpin. I had to share him with my sister but I was still pretty stoked about it.
I always wanted an Easy Bake Oven and never got one of those.
Barbie Dream House. I got it for Christmas, but 6 months later the movers destroyed it in our move overseas. It was never the same after that ( first world problem I know)
I always wanted and never got the gas pump for my Cozy Coupe. I coveted that thing everytime we went to the Toy Store on base. It was up high so I couldn't even play with it while we were in the store.
My mother says I never told them I wanted it. She found one on ebay and offered to buy it for me last year. I have no doubt that our child will own it one day.
Puppy Surprise was another big must-have one Christmas.

I always wanted one of those trampolines for the backyard, but never got one.
One of my favorite gifts was my barbie car that I could drive around.
When I was 5 (1986), I really wanted and got Cricket. If you don't know Cricket, you put cassette tapes in her back, and she read to you. Pulling up a pic brought back sooo many memories.
Oooh, yes! I loved my Teddy Ruxpin. But I didn't have to share with anyone

Cabbage Patch Kid also. I didn't get it the first Christmas they were the thing to have because I later found out that my Mom and both Grandmas were on the hunt to no avail. I ended up getting it for my First Communion which was like 6 months later. That was....Spring 1985? I think.
The gift I really looked forward to every year was my one Grandma got us girls a new fancy party dress to wear on Christmas. She had great style and taste and I loved every dress she ever got me.

I loved mine, until my older brother put the Metalica "Kill em All" tape in him when I wasn't around. I started to play what I thought was a story and had Teddy screaming at me about killing things. Yup, pretty much scarred me for life with that one.
