Toy's you've always wanted but never got (back in the day)

[Mikey]

Please don't list rare toys you've never heard of back in the day but today you know of them and wish you would have had them.

I want toys that you wanted (back in the 70's or 80's -- whenever you were a kid) but never recieved for whatever reason.

My list ...

Star Trek Mego communicators
Star Trek Mego tricorder
Lionel scale trainset (any model)
electric guitar
Moped

Guess I'll just relist what I said in Sharry's thread:

Green Machine
Blonde GI Joe with Kung-Fu grip
GI Joe secret of the mummy's tomb adventure set
Original release Star Wars toy lightsaber that looked like a flash-light with a fluorescent tube screwed onto it.
Mouse Trap board game

The Mego Fantastic Four. I had seen the Thing and the Human Torch in UK shops, but had only ever seen Mr Fantastic or Invisible Girl in the comic ads. The Thing rage cage, Ghost Rider on motorized cycle as well. The American ads could get kid real frustrated for sure

I wanted a minibike, Starbird stuff, and a Batvan.

Suckerman - My parents said No.
Shogun Warriors 24" Raydeen
Gre-Gory the Vampire Bat
G.I Joe Intruder in Silver Outfit - I had the Gold one
Star Wars Light Saber
AHI Dracula - I had Wolfman and Frank, but never saw Drac.
Bionic Bigfoot - This was tantamount to child abuse.

The 18" Kenner Alien. I wanted one sooooo bad when I was a kid, and had a couple missed opportunities to get one. It's always bugged the hell out of me, and I still want one very badly.

Those balls you ride on with the handles.

I can't remember much of my childhood...and as kids we pretty much had no say. I'm really drawing a blank.

I think you mean Hoppity Hop.

Yes, that's it. I really wanted one of those. I remember our parents took us to Toys R Us and that's what I wanted, but they made me get a doll instead.
