Писатель и музыкант Брайан Алтано запустил в твиттере любопытный тред. В нем он призвал всех делиться фотографиями игрушек, которые так хотелось заполучить в детстве, но по каким-то причинам позволить их себе не получалось — не хватало карманных денег или не покупали родители.
Show me a toy you always wanted as a kid but couldn’t get.

I’ll start. pic.twitter.com/A29DPIVnoW
В реплаях народ накидал такое количество крутых игрушек, что разбегаются глаза — некоторые из них хочется заиметь себе и сейчас, настолько они крутые. Многие наверняка узнают в них и свои игрушки, которые были столь желанны и столь недосягаемы в детстве. Собрали для вас самые крутые варианты.

I was lucky enough as a kid to not only get the Technodrome. I was also lucky enough to have the Ghostbusters firehouse. But there was one toy that always alluded me… pic.twitter.com/MgSDDxFttT

So many sick Lego sets from the 90s that I never got to build 😭😭 pic.twitter.com/8Kur4Oal11

I had that Technodrome and now as a nostalgic adult with children into these kinds of things themselves, I must come to terms with my mom giving all my TMNT toys to my Sid-type cousin who promptly burned them. Sewer set, pizza mobile and all. pic.twitter.com/pKLZZvmTyd
Definitely has to be M.A.S.K. I still can’t believe no one has tried to make a live action movie about this yet. pic.twitter.com/0VWclHcI66

@KindaFunnyKevin had the Technodrome and I had the Sewer, and together we were unstoppable. pic.twitter.com/Iah7e9LSCw

Gotta be the Bio-Flesh Regenerator toy from Terminator 2. It was the one thing I always wanted and never got. pic.twitter.com/mFkoVLaVYO

Not actually sure which hot wheels track I wanted as a kid, but I never saw the one that my mom got for me because her car was stolen about a week before Christmas with everyone’s presents :/ pic.twitter.com/XEPTJku5mp

I wanted the big boy T-Rex. Had to settle for the much cheaper and smaller dilophosaurus. pic.twitter.com/cz1BGBkvRD

It’s one of the few toys I was denied. I’ll never forget my mother saying «I am not paying THAT much for a hunk of plastic…I have my limits». 😒

I had a couple of the big Lego Pirate sets, but I never saw this one. Also, searching for this image made me remember how I built some of the sets 30 years ago. They used to be the coolest thing ever. I don’t know when I stopped being excited for them. pic.twitter.com/gDJrUc2bSp

I saw it being played with while we looked at house . We ended up moving into the house and I though the game came with it.

More than any action figure I always wanted these bad boys, never did get them. Used them once when I was 18, when you weigh 100 pounds over the limit, they’re just sad shoes pic.twitter.com/4QNROYR60o
