When schools not in session [or not so intense, but this past semester was a dousy] I carry my DS in my pocket.  Half the time it has pokemon in it.

This isn't because my childhood was robbed of masculinity [hell I've got home video of myself pre-3rd grade (it was filmed in a house I only lived in til then) of me getting a hot wheels track and freaking out like the little man I was]  but more so because toys are the ->-bleeped-<-.

I will occasionally buy myself a new hot wheels car to add to my desk.  I love nerf guns and fake weapondry.  The list goes on....

[SidESlicker]

hahaha, yeah it doesn't sound silly at all. If my budget allowed, I'd be neck deep in legos and those connect-it thingies that look like too much damn fun.

-Looks over at my collection of action figures, comics and video games and other random things my parents would have frowned upon- nooo~ I'm totally not making up for lost childhood...  I wonder if my random bouts of acting like a pre-teen are from this...  but hey, I would never have been able to buy a deluxe Dante statue as a kid! .... but then again, I guess I'd feel really weird if I may Stormshadow hump Flint at this age.

Toys are the absolute most AWESOME thing ever. no matter how old you are.

Looking around my room, I can see a Digi-Vice toy from Digimon, a Tamagotchi pet, a mech TON of gundams and action figures, and a toy chainsaw, among tons of other things. What is there NOT to love about toys?

Beyblades are totally awesome too. I play a bunch of children's card games too, like Yu-Gi-Oh and even Pokemon!

Tons of guys I know still play with toys and stuff, don't sweat it!

I was lucky...I was always given 'boy toys' when I was growing up....cowboy suits, guns, action men....now you WOULD THINK my parents would have thought that was a little odd....lol!!!!!!!

The old adage is that the difference between men and boys is the price of their toys.

Nah, just you. 

I collect old screws. I never know when I'm gonna need one just like that, but sadly, when I do, I never have the one I need.

But compared to collecting toy cars, that's totally rational.

I also have a number of really old computers. My oldest was made in 1981. You never know.

Apologies. This looks out of context.

Thaha yeah ,guilty as charged 

Just bought myself one of those miniature RC helicopters, its Awesome ! Same for RC cars but I think that one does has something to do with my childhood. We where kinda poor back then.
I still have to get a skateboard, and I'm planning to get back into model building with old timers.

I will admit that after a serten time my parents got me boy toys because my mother just saw I was really unhappy with all those frigging dolls. A teenhood and a life, now THAT I do consider stolen.

Price of toys def goes up the older you get. XD. Got over 10grand worth of pedal bikes in my garage. One's worth 9 I think. <3 my toys.

[notyouraverageguy]

Im just a big kid too

I've never really bought any boy's toys... but I still have my Legos! I really loved playing with those. I think I had a Tech Deck once, too. Never really got a handle on the tricks for it.  I guess as a little kid, I loved computer games. I always wanted to watch Beyblade and Yu-Gi-Oh, but my sister always had control of the TV so that never really happened.

But yeah, I completely understand the whole "childhood has been robbed" idea. Except, I'm still a teenager, so I feel like "childhood is still in the process of being robbed".  That's why I really loved going paintballing with my friends for the first time in November; I feel like I'm making up for the time lost.

You know, I think I gotta go dig up those Legos...
