I'd be impressed if you took a pic of you with the toy and wearing the same pants....

I don't have many pics of myself as a kid, let alone with some toys. It all got lost in a big family move when I was a teenager, it sucks.

Great pic though in that first post! I loved it when toys were nearly as big as me....still do!

Man...I think the closest I have is a picture of me in the sandbox wearing my "Emergency!" (you know you older folks remember that show) fire helmet.

Hell yeah! I got my wife the first two seasons of Emergency! on DVD for Xmas, and we've been totally into it. Holds up remarkably well.

I'm gonna take this thread way old school.

Christmas 1978
probably some of the first toys I ever owned. I still like Monchichi's to this day, and these are definitely my first "Japanese" toys (these ones were us produced, but based on the Japaneses series)-Which explains my love of all things "kawaii" to this day.
