If you've seen the Santa Clause you know where this one's going, was there one toy in particular as a kid you wanted for Christmas that you never got?
I couldn't pick one, because as a kid I wanted every toy and game on TV, for boys and girls, especially all the games:
Mousetrap Grape Escape Forbidden Bridge Doughnut Disaster Snaardvark Don't Wake Daddy Gator Golf Chicken Croquet Laser Tag Triple Yahtzee Word Yahtzee Showdown Yahtzee Split Second Taboo 13 Dead End Drive Outta Control Crocodile Dentist Crossfire Mr. Bucket Don't Go to Jail: The Monopoly Dice Game Thin Ice the 3 in 1 game table with pool, ping pong and air hockey with a light to play in the dark
Could anybody here pinpoint just one they wanted above all others?

I cant do just one but how about three: 1. dollhouse. Man I wanted that badly. I still kinda do  2. Semi-automatic car - I mean as a toy, I would sit in it and steer and it would go, perhaps powered by peddling. 3. Rocking horse. But the dollhouse was at the top. |

Always hoped to wake up one Christmas morning and find this lovely lady waiting for me under my Christmas tree, but sadly, she never showed......  Susanna Hoffs SAVE FERRIS

One of those battery powered trucks you could drive as a little kid.
The gun for the SNES
I got mostly what I really wanted every year.

I never did get that Atari. We were poor when I was a kid. Yep, THAT poor. By the time I could afford it myself it was the Nintendo and I bought my own.

It was in either 1984 or 1985 that there was a mini computer that did animations. I know we had it in our classroom.
As well, in either 1985 or 1986, I wanted a Teddy Ruxpin doll.
Having said that, the next year (1987), I got a double cassette deck with a built-in microphone. Probably THE best gift I ever received.
