Harrumph. This is like the eternal argument with my cousin Billy who used to want to be Kirk when we were playing Star Trek as kids. I demanded to be Kirk since I was six weeks older and a full grade ahead of Billy. Billy said no, I couldn't be Kirk because I was a girl. He would suggest Uhura. Then his younger brother and sister would want to play but would pout because the best we could offer was Checkov and Spock. Nobody ever wanted to be Spock... I think we argued so much that we rarely ever sorted it out enough to play.
Ok kids....here you go, print them out and carry around with you... no more fighting ok?
The joy of life comes from our encounters with new experiences, and hence there is no greater joy than to have an endlessly changing horizon, for each day to have a new and different sun.

My older sister used to chew the feet off of my Star Wars figures , she was a sadistic bitch!, come home from school, there's Princess Leia, NO FEET, WTF?
Um, you had a Princess Leia doll? snicker
Not that there's anything wrong with that.
I am aging myself a lot here, but there use to be a doll named
"Shrinking Violet" and I loved her!
I also had a kid size buffet set. It was like a side board for a dining room and came complete with all the dishes and candlesticks, napkins, everything you'd imagine.
I had a whole town, complete with a hospital, a school, a police station, an electrical train, a big house for the rich, a small house for the not so rich, a safari house (?!) for the weird and even a dodgy housing estate area :? . And for the town folks that wouldn't get a house, there was, well, a caravan...
Matchbox cars...I even had the A-team van (still have it stashed away somewhere)
Transformers
and my bmx
Barbies.. only so I could cut the hair off them...actually did that to nearly every doll anyone gave me :?
I eventually did that with my Barbies too. Scissors + nail polish = awesome mohawk.
Besides Barbies, I adored my Big Wheel and later my bmx bike. Also totally loved my firetruck, the paper dolls my Aunt Pat would always send and the empty cable spools mom would bring home from work.
digging all the love for He-Man on here, def my favorite as a kid - I had Castle Greyskull and all of Skeletor's shit and my neighbor and best friend had the He-Man shit. Also loved Mask. We'd also entertain ourselves with the cheap little army figures that didnt do anything. We'd just set up them up all over the place and go to war. Also had a pretty damn sweet GT Dyno that I rarely got off of.

Do imaginary friends count?
When I was left with nothing much to play with, she became my imaginary friend and " play thing ".
I was 6 and her name was Simperia.

Big wheels , mine was "The Green Machine" awesome spin outs on that thing. Too many bikes stolen to remember.
Mostly though the favorite "toy" was fucking around in the woods by my house. That was awesome. Creek, skipping stones, catching crawdads, fishing, etc.

Yep. Favorite play thing was a stick that could be ANYTHING. Favourite thing was building cubby houses in the bush. Favourite thing was playing down the creek and pretending armies and play fights. Favourite things were the tiny houses I would make for the Fairies to come live in and FAVOURITE thing jumping fences and pinching fruit out of orchards, marron out of Dams and picking which old woman in the neighborhood was a witch and spy on her.
