    Original TMNT, MOTU, and Real Ghostbusters was my bag as a kid. Still love all those franchises today, and have had a blast passing them on down to my kids.

    One of my favorite toys I had as a kid was The Real Ghostbusters Fearsome Flush (the toilet)! When I was a teenager, I gave him to a younger cousin.
    I’m just glad Flush got rereleased a few years ago-it was great to pick up another brand new copy of it!

    I have a lot of favorite toys but some of the most important ones are my rescue heroes, other people have memories of their childhood toys meanwhile I just have them since I was 6, I have had those toys for so long that I have no memories of buying or getting them, like I saw a picture of one of them in box and it was super strange to me because I have no memorie of ever opening the box

    Vintage He-Man and Skeletor and vintage Yoda, R2, Boba, and Vader. I also collected every version of Yoda, R2, Boba, and Vader I could find in the 1990s and early 2000s. I also love the Jedi Spirits.

    My personal favorite toys were 1990's Action Man by Hasbro. I remember my best friend got one in the Summer of 1994 and I really wanted my own Toy! I had to wait all the way until my Birthday towards the end of the year for my very own! lol It was an event to me, worth the wait and I just really got into the Toyline. Every Birthday and Christmas I would get a new figure or Vehicle Playset. I would save up pocket money for Outfit/Accessory sets throughout the year. I guess the Character just captured my imagination, further fuelled by the animated TV series that was released the following year!

    As a kid I loved the Kenner's Gorilla Alien. It was so fun to grab hero figures and squirt them with "Acid venom"! My other great favourite was Kenner's 1993 Young T-Rex from the Jurassic Park toy line... Man! I enjoyed that toy so much I even tattooed the JP .06 tag on my calf.

    That is one figure that I don't have, I mean the Anakin Skywalker/Sabastian Shaw one from the POTF 2 line, I know there is a vintage one but I prefer the 90s.

    My favorite is a stuffed beanie Zubat i got as a kid from BK i think? The quality of kids toys back then was wayyy better. He still looks great 20+ years later

    Joyride Halo figures, Toy Biz X-Men and Kenner Jurassic Park are my all time favorites

    My favourite toy line as a kid was Lego Pirates.
    My favourite set that I had was the Fort Sabre, and I have many fond memories playing with it alongside my other sets.
    Although I didn't own the actual iconic main Dark Shark ship (I did own two other ones though one of them being a much smaller one that I used as a placeholder for the Pirate one for sea battles with the Governors ship, which I had)
    Later on Lego went and did a short lived Lego Legends line, which did include the ship, which I jumped at the chance to buy in order to finally own that much listed over item.
    As it happens I jumped at the chance when the redo of the set that Lego did not so long ago, because (to cut a long story short) I lost my old one in a fire, as were my ships.
    Also, during lockdown in 2020 I got myself the shipwreck version of the iconic ship.
    I personally prefer to simply set it up as a fully seaworthy ship, instead of it as a shipwreck as one can have the option to have it as a sailing ship or as a shipwreck.
    And yes I do sometimes like to play with them and yes it would be nice if Lego did more such redo of classic Pirates sets
    Thus I was as pleased as punch with the opening so thank you very much

    I share your love for Doctor Doom, he's always been a favorite character of mine as well. Others include: Namor, The Hood, Arcade, Shocker, Sunfire, Juggernaut, Kyle Rayner/GL and The Incredible Hulk. Of which, I collect the most of. My favorite one of my many Hulks is one made by Play Doh. The head is a small canister of Play Doh and the body has "smashing" arms. Always make me smile.
    One of my favorite toys that is on my shelf is the original Trypticon Transformer. Still works too.
    I just redid some of my display shelves (and continue to do so, it's a process) so they could reflect more of the things that really stand out for me as far as the TV shows I grew up on, like figures that represent the characters from Super Friends, my new Castle Grayskull & Snake Mountain playsets (plan to include the MOTU Cartoon Collection with them) for He-Man and the Batmobile & figures from the Batman '66 TV show. On that same shelf are the John Wesley Shipp/The Flash & Lynda Carter/Wonder Woman figures too.

    I really love that first Hasbro Marvel Legends version of Doctor Doom, the one without the soft goods. I just keep going back to it. Of course Jedi Luke from Kenner Return of the Jedi, I had so many adventures with that figure as a kid. There are a lot and any figure that I keep going back to are hard to argue against being my favourites like the retro card Marvel Legends Black Costume Spidey, the SDCC GI Joe Classified Chuckles. There are many.

    Microman micro force gunner in 2005ish renewed the sense of wonder I got from Micronauts back before Star Wars was a thing.
    Then dove back into toys with Stikfas and Xevoz. Couple other stand outs are the N2toys Mad Max figure and who ever made the Quake Strogg Tank.

    While they didn't survive over the years... my top five favorite toys ever were... 5. Heading Dropping Donatello. It was neat gimmick for a TMNT figure and Donnie was always my favorite. Like most of my action figures, he didn't survive the final battle of 93. 4. When I was three I got a plush Scooby-Doo and I carried him around with me almost everywhere I went for years untill we got a real dog I kept it until it fell apart. 3. The 90s TMNT Baxter Stockman figure... the perfect amount of gross/creepy. 2. Real Ghostbusters Slimer... awesome toy. and my favorite toy of all time and coming in at #1 as my favorite toy ever as my Tonka Truck.

    how do you keep dust off your collection or is it just a case of regular up-keep?

    I would love to have John Romita Jr.'s Spider-Man but Hasbro incompetence on that instances is astonishing. My Favorite figure is any Egon Spengler from Kenner.

    Rich man hates that he had to pay 100 bucks 2x for his favorite Spider Man. Interesting.
