After responding to Sharon concerning Lego Star Wars - the game (and upcoming movie), I realized that I had become reminiscent about the toys and games of my youth.

Toys and games like:

Lincoln Logs
Erector Set
Legos (before all these specialty sets)
Stratego
Trouble
Kerplunk
Rebound
Risk
Sorry (original version)
Hotwheels/Matchbox/Pocket Cars
Army Men

There was this construction set that used girders, braces, building panels, and roadway pieces that allowed one to build either bridges or buildings. I just cannot remember it' s name...anyone that remembers these sets, please help.

Are there any toys or games, from YOUR youth, that you would like to discuss?
