I had rainbow brite bike! Complete with rainbow basket, bell and handle streamers. It was baby blue with a banana seat and had little RB decals all over it.
Man, I was cool! |

Used to play this game at my grandmother's house with all my neighborhood buddies. None of us had ever seen the TV show at the time, but we loved the game. |

Family game around my house was 'Aggravation'. 
and Canasta. DGSucks, I had an awsome set of Clackers, too - 'cept they were purple. Almost killed my older brother with them - smacked him in the temple! My mother took them away from me 
But the coolest toy was the bike I got on my 12th birthday! It was a "The Monkeys" bike - complete with lowrider handlebars, wire saddle bags, and a bright yellow banana seat. Man, I was the coolest kid on the block! |

I do remember the "clackers" and the robot sock 'em game. There's an ad on tv featuring those robots. Brought back memories. Of course, we had the usual board games (Monopoly, Aggrevation) but we also had an actual pinball machine, GI Joe, Barbie, big wheels, and Hot Wheels with the orange tracks to have races.

Gee, you mean to say that there where no cameras in the Stone Age like what the Flintstone's and the Rubble's had?

Gee I 'm glad someone told me those two things were "Clacker Balls" I thought it was something from the ADULT BOOK STORE! I guess that would be a toy also!

| Actually I did have a Red Ryder Carbine with the leather saddle thong and the whole bit. Got it when I was eight. I carried it around in a home made saddle boot when I was bringing in the stock and thought I was one hell of a movie cowboy there for a while. | |
