I have been going through Toys that I had when I was a kid. I have He-Man figures, Castle Greyskull, Battle Cat and Panther. May be giving this to my ten year old Nephew, who is starting to be interested in He-Man.
Also have Star Wars figures, X-Wing, Snowspeeder, Speederbike, AT-ST.. Also have Jabba the Hutt. Wish I had the Millennium Falcon and the AT-AT.
What Toys did you have, is there anything that you wished you had?
My brother had Castle Greyskull and wouldn’t let me play with it!
I did have the Ghostbusters tower which was awesome and also a Teenage Mutant Hero/Ninja Turtles blimp!
A football, various stones, conkers & a piece of string
Going through the He-Man toys that I have, I have been trying to recall what the names of the figures are. Easy ones I have are, He-Man, Skeletor, Man at Arms, Man E Faces, Ram Man etc. I still have other figures to find.
Here is a YouTube feature on a woman who receives a parcel of He-Man toys. There are figures that I do not recognise, maybe only available in America.

When I was at Primary School, two Brothers went to America with there Parents, on regular occasions.
They would come back with Star Wars toys that you could only get in the US. We were like, "Wow, what is that? Haven't seen that in the UK"!!!
Used to have quite a few Thundercats figures, but only knew one person who had the coveted ‘cloaked’ Mum-ra figure
Many many days were spent looking in the Argos and Index catalogues at the toys, lusting over slimer and the stay puft man.

Subbuteo during the football season and Test Match during the summer
Test Match was an impulse buy from Amazon a few months ago. Just because.
