The scary thing is when you see sets on the shelf that were huge as a kid and they're just dwarfed by the amount of other stuff around them. Even in those pics there are some pretty big sets that you can barely see.

Oh and it's Leg-o. Definitely NOT pluralised either, bloomin americans ;)

As for obsession, I'm getting on top if it. I've not bought much this year as I've got most of the sets that I want to own now and they don't bring out many good sets these days.

That ones not worth a great deal actually*. (although someone is currently selling all 5 of the big cars as a set on eBay for £400) Mines not even a real one, I built it from spares :p

*Just checked and theres a mint boxed one at £38 on the bay so they're a bit more than I thought :p

Time for a girly answer....

My Little Pony Dreamcastle.

I asked for it every year - never ever got it, despite owning around 50 of the ponies! :(

Aww, I was amazed at the amount of pony stuff I had. Just cleared out my parents loft and found it all!!! Mum said they saved it as one day it would be worth something. She's right and its all off on eBay soon ;) Although I am having fun combing the knots out of the tails at the mo :)

I forgot about BigTrak too - I wanted one of those for a while!

What is the one childhood toy that you wanted but you never got?

For me and strangely I found out last night my girlfriend it was Mr Frosty!

I have no idea why I wanted it really, looking at it now there was very little fun to be had in crunching up bits of ice and putting some e number ridden colouring over it. But every time I saw the advert on TV I knew I wanted one.

My parents told me it was rubbish at the time (as did my girlfriend's she tells me). My parents were right of course but I would still be well excited if I got one for christmas.

So whats the toy you always wanted but never got?

i got one..... used it once.... it tasted like ****
