Sometimes when I'm looking for old toys on Etsy, I find things I haven't seen since childhood. For instance, I recently found a couple of Z-Bot figures I used to own. They were Micro Machine figures from the early 90s.

Z-Bots are pretty cool! One of my friends had a massive collection

Have you ever heard of a game company called MEGO?



This ad showed up in my watch-list about a week ago. It's from 1979, a board game called "Obsession".

A few years ago I found one of my all-time favorite action figures from my childhood on eBay. It was a Spider-Man toy from the Marvel Toy Biz line of the 90's. As a kid my favorite color was blue, and I loved this figure because it inverted Spider-Man's normal costume colors so that way it was mostly blue.



One of the rarest figures from that line. Guy literally only wanted five dollars for it.

A sweet deal for something that valuable. 



While I was on Etsy, I also found a couple of Flintstones "Hollyrock" figures I used to have, They were prizes from Fruity Pebbles boxes.

remember that one trolls spinoff that was an attempt to appeal to boys? it took years for me to remember the name alone, and i had this toy from the series in particular. apparently there was going to be another set of figures planned, but they got cancelled along with the tv show that it was based on.

I used to have this Raphael astronaut figure. Then last year, I had the pleasure of buying it online again.
