Post them here. Let's try to limit this to toys you actually had. If any stories surround the toy, like shooting your eye out, blowing off a hand, etc., please post that along with the picture of your toy. The first one is this one. I had this toy and it was great for playing Army!

Lol ... I gotta find this super concentrated bouncing ball I had back in the day . If you held it at shoulder length and dropped it , it would bounce higher than your shoulder as an example . I blackened my eye with it real good

Ha! I had one of those!

Caps were a gateway toy. You start with a cap gun.

Then you move up to one of these bombs things.

Then you're hitting 10 caps at a time with a hammer.

Then comes that one 4th of July when your pop lets you light your own firecrackers!

The next thing you know you're having bottle rocket wars with wiffleball bats.
ever forward
