A Batman car and blow up bridge. Santa hid it under the couch, so when I opened my other presents, I cried when I thought I hadn't got it!!!!! Then Dad showed where it was hidden!

I loved playing with the cardboard boxes making dens etc.

So one year all I got was empty boxes.

I love toys me. My favourites were:

Action Man - never had a talking one, but never tired of the eagle eyed switch

Cars - had hundreds of them, Matchbox, Corgi, Dinky, Majorette, Hot Wheels

Lego - especially spacemen

Action Force - mini action men the size of star wars figures, had loads of smart vehicles

Thankfully me mam and dad kept loads of them which my lads now enjoy playing with.

They also have a load of Bruder toys, which are really well made high quality German efforts. Mostly tractors, diggers, lorries etc. Not that expensive either compared to a lot of the flimsy plastic tat you're restricted to in Toys R Us.

Couldnt afford mega drive had a master system.

Sensible football 95/96 was the greatest playable football game ever made. Getting that for Christmas 95 was unreal.

Still remember ste halliday being fast as, such a shame when he turned left or right he forgot to take the ball with him.

Used to go round yours and play Alex Kidd and Mickey Mouse's Castle of Illusion. You weren't allowed in.

SWOS was quality, Halliday could turn left but not right the useless twat. Or Helludey as he was known...

Best team in the game was "Professionals" in the custom teams, oh, and Norwich, because the creators of the game were biased wankers.

Lego was for kids with no mechanical skills.

Meccano was the real business. Certainly the best toy I ever had.

You've obviously never had a go with Technic Lego, it's like the best of both worlds.

Come on now Mr PIN, you've seen me. Do I really look young enough to have had Technic Lego in my Christmas sock?

Actually I probably do.

I also went:

Commodore 64 to
Amiga 500

But then:

Gameboy
Game Gear
Mega Drive
SNES
N64
Saturn
Gamecube
PS1
PS2
Xbox (Only cos Playstation server went down for about 2 months)

Never had either the Master System or NES. Think I had the Jaguar console aswell with the Alien game.

Probably best gaming memories were:

Dizzy on C64. Aswell as Emlyn Hughes football.
Zelda on Gameboy.
Footy Manger game on Amiga (had to start in Conference from memory and you could sign any player who was injured for free) and obviously Sensible football
First playing Street Fighter on Mega Drive. Wow.
Mario Kart on SNES.
Goldeneye on N64.
Luigis Mansion on Gamecube.
Virtua Tennis 2 on Saturn?
Demolition Derby on PS.
