    No. My toys were traditional "boy" toys.

    EDIT: Well occasionally my sister wanted me to play barbies with her, but I'd just end up pissing her off.

    You should make a poll to go with this! :slight_smile:

    I definitely didn't. I mainly played with Kinex, Lego's, and Star Wars action figures.

    HELL YES.

    Actually, I used to go to the Barbie website and do the "customize your Barbie." She had brown hair and purple clothes. She was so fetch.

    But, in my defense, I also played with Bionicles and I played plenty of video games. ^_^

    I did but then again I'm a girl so I'm not sure that counts, if anything it goes against the whole lesbian stereotype. :slight_smile:

    Techcompu2: How did you quoting me end up inverting the case on the first letter of every word including my name? With the exception of "boy" and "I'd".

    I felt old when I read this:

    Nope. The closest I had were "Little People", including the Sesame Street set.

    I'm assuming these don't count, since you can't dress them or do anything with their hair. :slight_smile:

    Hmmm I don;t really remember my toys but I had Legos and whatnots.

    My sister told me that Barbies can have tattoos now.

    LOL.... I'm kinda speechless. :grin:

    No, not really. I was more of a Lego kid. My proudest achievement is buying every single Harry Potter Lego set, assembling the entire castle, and putting it all on a shelf as one display piece.

    But I do wonder what compels children to remove all a Barbie's clothes as soon as they open the box and toss the naked Barbie aside.

    As a girl, I played with Barbies all the time. Then again, I never had a Ken so my Barbies always ended up lesbians.

    Why is there no Count toy?

    The lack of The Count makes me sad

    :frowning2:

    I ALWAYS used to play with Barbies when I went to my neighbours.
    It was great!
    It was, like, a blatant soap opera.

    Well, I never, ever played with barbies... A babysitter who did not know me at all got me one for christmas, I mutilated it, then gave it to my sister, lol. I hung out with my younger brother and his starwars lego and TONKA trucks (best things in the world!)!!! I never played with my sister, lol.

    I played with barbies a bit and I wanted an action man but my parents wouldn't get me one, my grandma got me a baby born though cos I was jealous of my sister's

    but yeah I also played with bionicles and played video games so maybe it doesn't matter

    Edit: I remember mutilating my barbies aswell. lol

    Haha, same here. Although I only played with them if I wasn't already playing in the pond behind our yard... getting covered in mud and catching frogs. My mother most certainly never appreciated that. :lol:

    ... and then I decapitated the first and only barbie I ever got. I was a brat.

    Heck yes! They'd go mountain-climbing down the side of my bunkbed...

    I played with a little bit of everything, though.
