Ah, the toys.

Went to Target this evening. Meandered down one aisle of the toy section that was, apparently, dedicated to my childhood--all in one place were assembled Care Bears, My Little Pony, Strawberry Shortcake, and even Polly Pocket. It was amazing, I tell you. Add in some Popples and a few baby dolls and you have my entire life from ages 1 to 9. And they're actually making the Ponies out of the same type of molds they did in the 80s, instead of those odd elongated things they had a few years ago. I was sorely tempted by the $4.99 beanie Care Bear, but decided that probably I don't need yet another stuffed animal to take up residence on either the top of my bookcase or my bed.

Heh. I remember Lickety-Split from the second movie, and boy, she was a brat *g*

She was! But I was three when I saw it for the first time, and it let me live vicariously through her. (Would not dream of being that kind of brat to my parents!)

Even though she was a bit of an airhead, I was rather fond of Fizzy, too. And the one who skated...dash it, what was her name. Not sure about the cynical one, as I don't know if I remember that at all. Hmm.

Yeah, the skating one was cool! The cynical one had a stormcloud on her hip, I think...maybe it was Stormy? She was always mopey, and saying that none of their plans would ever work. (She might've only been on the TV series, but I think she was in the movies, too.)

*mourns for the lost toys* I still have all my Little People, no way am I getting rid of those. We had all the nifty sets - the barn, the castle, several houses, etc. We fought over that castle set *g*

Ooooh...I had the city block set with the carwash and firehouse and stuff. But now it's all gone. *sigh*

Lol. Neither would I :)

Bowtie! That's the one with the skates. Whew. Don't remember Stormy, but it's been quite a while since I've seen either the movies or the show ;)

Oh yeah, I think we may have that one somewhere in the basement. I should get all those toys together and make sure they're still intact. I certainly won't mind that particular trip through childhood :)
