We had things kids today can only dream about. Air Blaster, lawn darts, etc, etc. Anyone remember Klackers?

Yea the old ones made a good Bola with a little modification. Great for catching little brothers trying to run away.

Prior to getting my first bike and Daisy BB gun the toy I remember getting the most was my Mattel Fanner Fifty cap gun......I felt like Gene Autry, Roy Rogers and Hopalong Cassidy all rolled into one.

I had a nice set of bruises on the forearm from trying to master the Klackers.

A car that "climbs walls" and on the ceiling? That'd go over like a fart in church in my house.
