Speaking of Micro Machines, i had these where the cars would open to reveal even smaller ones inside.

I also had a rather large collection of Star Wars Micro Machines...

I also have the full set of these as mum & dad collected them in the 80's.


We've got 2 full sets as Mum and Dad are still convinced they'll eventually be worth a fortune.

One of my older cousins gave me it when I was about 8, I had a Master System at the time but I utterly loved it and still have it somewhere in the loft.

Also had this beauty:

My Nan was addicted to it and would often 'nick' it for half an hour.

Yeah, um, you're about 22 years too late with those helpful instructions. :slol:

I had several of those! :o I wanted more, but Woolworths was the only place stocking them, and they never had the ones I wanted.

Shame i wasn't able to keep them during my last house move really.

For some reason I can't get an image to work on here, but I used to have a game called Henry. It was a matching game where you had to match the voices and noises. I loved that thing to death.

As far as the table-top Pac-Man clones went, Munchman played like an absolute dog compared to the far superior Puck Monster. An absolute gem.

Looking at the slot racers posted earlier made me think of this beauty, Race 'n' Chase, which me and my brother half-shared back in the day.

The one thing I really wish I'd kept from my childhood is my Donkey Kong Game & Watch. Such a beautiful little object. I can't even remember what happened to it :( .

Friend of mine had the Race and Chase, think we spent half of our time trying to crash the cars into the ramp. I had one of these, was incredibly cool when it worked which was very rarely.

I still have my Donkey Kong Game & Watch. Must be the oldest object I've held on to.
