It has to be handed to them for causing such a craze. There were few things at the time that got kids and parents alike queuing up to buy one!

I had a load of starcom - I think I still have it.

Robotix would have been my favourite though, or meccano

Other than Lego my most played toy would have been plastic toy soldiers, I used to buy bags of them along with plastic tanks, trucks, scenery and other assorted cheap plastic army stuff, I literally had hundreds of the things and filled up an entire backpack with them.

Did they have sheep in Wales when you were growing up or were you expected to go outside and play with the sheep? :)



I used to have a ton of those toy soldiers too Smugs, you could get whole warsets with tanks and such as well I think.

Of course they did. They kept the grass carpet in the living room short for the Welsh occupants.

They used to, and still do, come in sealed plastic bags with a recycled cardboard seal along the top, those have been going for at least 40 years. Saw some in a £1 shop on Saturday
