- Toy cars, ships, airplanes, etc.
I had a lot of small toy cars. Well, I thought 15 was a lot. But my cousin had a whole box full of them. I saw it and was amazed. And I was also very envious and greedy as a child (and I haven't changed much now), so it was painful for me to see it.
Well, I also wanted to come up with something like a board game with these cars, like a racing game, I invented some rules and so on, but, of course, I didn't finish anything.
- Racing tracks, railroads.
I finally managed to get one of these as a gift. I wanted everything at once, all kinds of toys in the world. I should have read "The Magic Flower" more often.
Well, they gave me a simple racing track, where a racing car drives back and forth. And there are three dead loops. And I played with it, had fun.
And I also had a large A3 book (or even A2, I don't remember), with different racing tracks drawn on each page. And four small cars were included. The game is that you roll a die and move your piece around the board by the number of points rolled. I was given this as a child.
- Radio-controlled toys.
Once, they advertised a radio-controlled car on TV for a long time, and it had a controller in the form of a wristwatch, it was cool. And everyone was obsessed with these cars. And I was given one once, and I drove it all over the house.
And suddenly, not so long ago, last New Year, my dad gave me a radio-controlled helicopter. It's cool, but you need a lot of space to fly it. And no wind.
- Toy weapons.
I was really obsessed with this. I bought all sorts of swords, bows, and imagined myself as an awesome ELF. Who waves them awkwardly and out of sync. And I also held the swords with two fingers, not in a clenched fist. SO THAT IT WOULD BE EASIER TO ROTATE THEM IN ALL DIRECTIONS, IT LOOKS VERY COOL AND I AM SUCH AN ELF WITH TWO BLADES.
And there were also various pistols. I remember once buying a pistol for a hundred rubles (that was a lot of money for me back then!). It was cool, it even shot double bullets, had a safety, and something else. And then a friend tricked me and stole it from me, I even cried, because I was really upset. But I didn't blame my friend, because I believed him, although I suspected him of wrongdoing, but now I understand that no one else could have stolen it from me.
- Figurines of various characters from cartoons, movies, etc.
I always wanted something like that, because there are many characters, but I had few figurines. I had Batman and Spider-Man. And also Terminator and Alien. That's it.
- Toy soldiers.
Well, I had a box of various Soviet-made toy soldiers, which my dad's friend brought me. He played with them as a child. But I preferred to play Battles of Fantasy, for example. I had (and still have, because I'm too lazy to sell them) either 17 or 19 squads, of which, however, a couple were clones (if you exclude the clones, there are, I think, 15). And I also have painted fortresses with acrylic paints. And also a "Armored Infantry" set, two or three "Skytech" sets, a "Robotech" set - all from the same publisher. I played alone, I played with my dad, I played with my friends. It was fun.
- Robots, Transformers.
BIONICLE. For some reason, the number 24 comes to mind, but I'm not sure if I had exactly that many. I can try to count. I had six of the very first Toa, not Toa Nuva or anything else, but the very first ones, I noticed that none of my current acquaintances ever had such Toa. In addition, it is almost impossible to find any information about them on the Internet, even photos. Although I have personal photos, I can show them later if you want.
And I had two Borok of the first generation (they made the second one almost immediately, which is practically no different from the first). The Boroks were, I think, red and... green, I think. I can't remember the second color exactly. And I had one of the second generation - white.
And there were also various creatures from the first release. Interesting creatures, by the way, they didn't release anything like that later. And these were sold in packs of two. And I had two such scorpions and two of some kind of boxers, they ride on tires and really punch in the face, they have special mechanisms for this. I also really wanted two Bionicles with radio control from this series, I really wanted them, but they were expensive and no one bought them for me.
There was also some kind of strange guy, like an engineer, he is small (it seems that they make ordinary residents of their universe small), but he has a large combat machine that could be assembled in two variations. I had it.
Of the Toa Nuva, I had only one, and it was made in China - green. In general, green and somehow brown Bionicles were my favorites.
And then they released Rakshi, and I became obsessed with them, I loved them right away and really wanted to collect them all. But I only got three. White, red, and green, I think.
And I also had some kind of guy from those who shoot with discs (they can also stand like spiders or walk vertically). Brown.
I think that's all, although I'm definitely forgetting something. In total, I got 19 Bionicles, if I didn't count wrong. Well, yes, I remember that I definitely had over 20 of them, so I've already forgotten about someone. Because I gave them all to my brother at some point.
- Dolls.
Lol, no, I only liked to dress up dolls in my early childhood, then I stopped liking it.
- Constructors.
Lego! Besides Bionicles, I had a lot of separate sets from different themes, but there was nothing special there.
And there was also a constructor, it seems to be called MEGA, there was a large pile of green cubes and instructions on how to make several dinosaurs out of them. And I made whatever I wanted out of it, sometimes even these dinosaurs.
And there were also various small constructors, I didn't play with them much, because they were boring.
- Soft toys.
Here, lol, when my sister was given toys, I automatically assigned them to my property. I accumulated a lot of them, and I sometimes slept with all of them at once. My favorites were a musical Winnie the Pooh, a parrot named Goodwin (I named him after the wizard of the Emerald City), and also Tom and Jerry. I always took these four toys with me on vacation. Well, sometimes without Tom and Jerry. By the way, these two still exist and are in my field of vision on the windowsill. Where Goodwin and Winnie are, I have no idea.
- Educational toys, puzzles, etc.
I didn't play, I didn't like puzzles, I never solved a Rubik's cube in my life. And I turned out to be such an UNDEVELOPED person.

By the way, now I understand that I had an awesome childhood from a material point of view, that not everyone had over twenty Bionicles and a lot of Battles of Fantasy at that time. And I still wanted more.

Oh, I also had a couple of guys, like some kind of special forces or I don't know who. I named one Cool Sam (after that Sam), and the other, I think, Agent Smith. Although neither of them looked anything like Sam or Smith from the Matrix.
Smith was also on some kind of flying skateboard, with rockets attached to the sides - lol, he's definitely bombing. And he had a lot of weapons. And Sam had only one machine gun, I think.
I liked to play with them. When I was traveling by train, I would arrange battles on the upper bunk.
