Went to the Museum of Childhood in London yesterday. Great fun and we spent the whole day saying "OH! I remember those!"

Who had one of these then?!

(Apologies for the awful shot - taken in extrelely low light in my digi compact!)
 
:LOL: I remember those, and I know that either myself or one of my siblings had one (though not from 1965- I'm not that old!). C'mon then, what other things did you snap?
 
yup, i had one of those and also a similar toy in the form of a penguin with flappy rubber bits on the wheels which made a slapping noise on the floor .....suppose it was to make it sound like it was walking :wacky:

and i'm younger than Min.....so deffo not 65 :D
 
We had one in our house, but 1965 ?, were all to young for that.
 
Not much really! Because I was on a day out with friends I deliberatley didn't take the big camera so only had the compact and that doesn't cope well in the low light.

These were probably my absolute favourite toys when I was little...

The was the outfit my first Sindy doll was dressed in - according to the book the pic was in it was also one of the all-time best sellings ones so I bet I wasn't the only one there either!

Notable by their absence were "Simon Says" "Pong" and there was also no sign of an Etch-a-Sketch! (And no, I'm not old enough for 1965 either!)

I think that just indicates when they started being made though - I was born in 1972 so would have had one of those in the mid 70's I'm guessing.
 
I was hatched in 72 too

the purple people eater, slime, Evel Knievel were all great toys at the time :D
 
I had these but mine were painted different colours

Provided hous of fun making buildings to park my cars in.:)
 
Lego and Mechano were my favourites.
 
Yes, we saw lots of both of those yesterday. I loved my lego! Also my train set - which is still carefully stored at Mum and Dad's. :)
 
Toddlers, both of you!
:LOL:
:LOL: :D

OO me too - I had that one LOL - as I remember she was VERY bendy:LOL: put some of these Russian gymnasts to shame:D

As for the Etch-a-Sketch .... did anyone actually managed to draw a picture that resembled anything other than a load of random lines?????:LOL:
 
I had one of those ballerina Sindy dolls too :D

and an orange space hopper with strange carrot type handles :LOL:

(late 7o's)
 
Ah Lego was great I agree but who had 'Betta Builder' - it had slates :geek: (y)
