Lost relics of your childhood

[elSicomoro]

Shit...I've sold off:

--Voltron (all 5 lions and the characters that went with them)
--Empire Strikes Back figures
--Trans Formers (I had about 80 at the time)

Now, I still have my baseball cards (along with some old card collecting magazines), but I'm probably going to have to sell them off soon. I look at them now as an investment that could pay some nice dividends.

My old high school buddy (and former music partner in Sycamore) collects comics and all kinds of nostalgic shit. Some of the items include a never-opened Welcome Back Kotter dress-up kit (I think that's what it was), unopened Star Wars stuff, and IIRC, some of the old Colorforms sets. His dad is the same way with Frank Zappa/Mothers of Invention stuff.

I think I still have the Michael Jackson doll circa 1984 back in St. Louis, along with a "picture disc" version of Thriller.

For the "motorcycle" noise on bikes, we used to use aluminum cans...they slowed you down a bit though.
