Memorable 70's and 80's toys

[the ski man]

Not my favorite but definitely memorable was my TV Scoreboard game, Cutting edge technology in about 1976. 6 slightly different versions of Pong. WOW! Needless to say I have not tried to find one of these to show my kids.

i have one if you want it....


So my favourite toys when i was growing up were slot cars... not the pansy scalextric crap that you take out the box and watch as they slowly go round, but i had a huge passion for vintage hand built brass frame slotties from the 60's and 70s... i came across a few at a garage sale one day and i now have about 25 frames and upwards of 40 shells...

As a kid i'd spend literally every weekend at the local 8-slot and never grew tired of it, only now that the traditional raceways are few and far between it makes for a very static hobby

dont know what im talking about... here's some pics:




not my cars, but just some pretty close pics for reference
