Toys as a kid that you would never admit to your friends you owned.

[UnderdogDJLSW]

I was thinking about this the other day. When I was a kid we lived in an apartment that didn't allow pets. I wanted a dog so bad that I had my mom buy a Benji plush that I could pretend to feed and keep in my room. This was around 1975 and I was 7 going on 8 at the time. Among all of the Megos, Trek model kits and Evel Knevel stuff, Benji always hung out in my mom's room whenever my friends came over to the house. I also do not ever recall using any of the supergals in any of our super hero Mego adventures, but I also never remember being ashamed of those. I just think Batgirl and Catwoman just never were played with when my friends were around.

What toys did you love, but did so in silence?

We had a Michael Jackson doll that my sister and I despised as kids. My mom gave it to us for a Christmas gift one year. We always hid him when friends came over.

As an adult, I will not admit to my friends that I have a McDonald's Bratz doll.

Baby Brother Tender Love when I was really small. For those who don't know, this was an anatomically correct doll, aka he had a weiner.

Dawn dolls. They were the same scale as Major Matt Mason and mom thought the astronauts needed wives.

CCC.

Same here. My "collect them all" mentality made Princess of Power a must, but I felt kind of dirty about it the whole time. My friends knew I had them, but we didn't really play with them, except Bow.

I had a few She-ra's , the murky and fluffy dude from Rainbow brite, and some new kids on the block, and 90210 guys(in all fairness my Joes use to beat the crap out of those guys lol)

I forgot I had almost the whole collection Shirt Tale stuff figures at the bottom of the closet. I think those were Mcdonalds toys circ. 1985?

That was something I wouldnt have wanted to show off to friends

I'm thinking - but I'm not sure I had any I was ashamed of. NOT because I think all my toys would have been considered cool - but because I was probably way too clueless to know any better.
