@@RhettyforHistory I was born in the 80s, and grew up with those toys when I was young and Living on the Farm in Canton South Dakota, I grew up with Toys like, Barbie, He-Man, She-Ra, G.I.

@@DrEvil-sd9nu nope, 90s are when things got complicated. Internet, cellphones etc... when there were no distractions a kid can be a kid and play outside. This why the 80s were the last best decade. The last decade before complications
I so so regret throwing all my 80s toys away, or just losing track of them. I'd love to have them now, especially my cabbage patch kids. I remember, as a teenager, idiotically throwing most of them away. I'd love to have my glow worms. Although I didn't have the big soft one like they show here, it was a smaller, rubber one. My Carebears. My My Little Ponies. Barbies. Jem Jerica dolls. The Littles dolls. Sun Pets. Hot Looks dolls. Contrux. Oh and all these cool Fisher Price toys I had, especially all the food ones.
I honestly want to research about why that is. My guess is that it triggers ALL the memories, good and bad, that were attached to that single memory. Seeing Duck Hunt for some reason really triggered a big rush of sadness for some reason, even though I was like “oh wow I remember that” at the same time. I also think it has to do with the “loss of innocence” adulthood brings about, and it’s your subconscious way of grieving your childhood, which is common for any of us when we reminisce.
@@rtoriq yes I agree but I also think,for me anyway that the world has changed so much and so have the people. I find there are so many disrespectful, rude people ( I don’t understand it ) people who make nasty comments, and make every thing about them. Where I am the opposite and do everything for everyone else first ( even strangers). Makes me remember how nice people and neighbours used to be. Also my children are grown adults, age 32 and 20. I miss when I went to all the school events and helped out with everything. My parents are unwell and I am realising it’s only two years till my husband retires. Where has the time gone ? Really wish you could turn back time. I’m also going through menopause, which means I’m crying 😢 now. Sorry for the rant. You stay safe and all the best. ❤️🇦🇺
@@rtoriq I'm intrigued also,I just wanted to go back in time.So innocent yet at the time we we wanted to grow up so we could do adult things.Now grown we often crave for the reverse.We used to feel it took too long for birthday, Christmas etc and now time flies by.We thought we had it hard going to school and doing chores but those days were easy compared to adult life.What we didn't realise at the time is how short childhood was and when grown we we will be an adult forever... I had a hard childhood but the good times last a lifetime. I love psychology and I think your study idea sounds great I believe reflecting on these memories may provoke happiness and sadness could be due to on one hand we are reliving things from both a childhood and adulthood perspective rolled into one.We only thought with childhood insight at the time.We have lost our innocence,yet we didn't know we had it until its now gone.(I want it back).It feels like only yesterday but at the same time so long ago.Imagine if teachers reversed the question they still always ask kids.Instead of"when I grow up I want to...and change it to "I don't want to grow up because ...I wonder what the answer would be and then ask 30 years later.Interesting how dementia patients are often happiest reliving positive childhood experiences.
I'll never forget plugging an Ozzy or Iron Maiden cassette into my little sister's Teddy Ruxpin and scaring the crap out of her when she went to play it! Aaaah....good times!
@@DrEvil-sd9nu I loved the Voltron toys too the lions forming I also liked the show especially the first couple episodes when they had to find the last key and the mice had it I loved that cartoon
Haha I was a twenty something woman in the 80’s with two sons. I remember coming across a lone Cabbage Patch Kid sitting on a counter in a store one night. I grabbed that doll so quick. I still have it. So many of these toys were purchased for my boys. Good Memories. Thank you Rhetty!
For Cabbage Patch Dolls, there's a Cabbage Patch Hospital just outside of Helen Gerogia, which contains a museum, but also you can custom order new Cabbage Patch dolls with all the details you want, and they're made right there. You can then pick them up for adoption and be there when they're 'born'.
I had no idea that this was still open! Wow! I've never been there but as a child I always wanted to go (grew up on the West coast). Thanks for mentioning this!❤️ I have my original dolls and ones I've found over the years. My children love them too!
It’s called ‘“Babyland General Hospital?” I found it on RUclips and am gonna check it out! I adored my cabbage patch dolls in the 80s! I still have all three of them! Judy Christabella was my first and thus favorite - her red braided pig tails still smell a bit like baby powder because I put some on her back then lol. My grandma was the one who braved getting it for me on Black Friday for me to have for X-mas that first year they blew up. I’ll never forget how surprised and excited I was upon opening the gift! I hadn’t asked for one or anything - parents just knew that every little girl loved them (and we seriously would take them EVERYWHERE, and sleep with them etc). The other ones I “adopted” was a premie named Wade Ely, and a short curly blonde hair girl named Layla (ugh I forget her middle name atm! I’m a bad mom!). They were such high quality dolls! I can’t believe the advertisement here said they were only $19.95! Even when accounting for inflation, I’d think they’d be worth so much more with such high quality!
You hit the nail on the head, you absolutely said it best--we did really love and play with our toys. I had a "relationship" with my toys, tbh, talking to them and pretend play with them. The Toy Story movies really capture what it was like to be a kid playing with your toys in the 80s, especially if you were born in the mid to late 70s, because you were at the perfect childhood age; not too young, not too old.
As a kid from the 80's , this brings back so much nostalgia 🤯😊 It's sad that none of these products ever got a second life because the kids of today are too busy playing on cell phones and video games.
Thats what im saying . The Nintendo wasnt a toy .....it was a video game console. ( And the phone you're complaining that kids are on .........yep , you're addicted to You Tube , social media , etc. Too . )
my nephews have all the tech stuff, but they always have liked and still play with real toys too, lots of lego stuff, star wars, transformers and even some halo themed toys. christmas of 2019 my 17 year old nephew got nothing but transformer toys, it was sweet
The 80s were the best years for toys, music, and TV! Going back to the whole Cabbage Patch Kids craze when my parents finally got one for my sister for Christmas. I loved the Autobots pic in this video, naming as many as I could, yet forgetting some names. Thanks for the great video!
Thanks for sharing! That brought back a lot of great memories! The biggest ones for me were the Cabbage Patch Dolls and collecting the Garbage Pail Kid cards! I remember my parents couldn’t get those Cabbage Patch Dolls anywhere. We had to wait a long time. The Garbage Pail Kids were so cool with their looks and names. I had to collect them all!
The new Boss Baby movie has several He-Man action figures and a Castle Greyskull. My 3 year old saw the castle and busted out in the theater “ Hey, that’s a He-man castle!” Never been so proud lol
I live in a small town along the Delaware in PA. Our police station is the old stone Catholic Church on top of a hill with views of the river. My son refers to it as Castle GreySkull 😂
I was Born in 82. So yes, I remember the Glory Day's of the 1980's 🤠👍🍒💃🇺🇸I remember playing with my cousin. She was such fun to play outside with all day. Riding bikes,climbing tree's, playing with toys, riding big wheels down the hill.
Hey Rhett, Cabbage Patch Dolls originated in Cleveland, Ga several years before the toy manufacturers started mass producing them. The original building is still there and you can take your child there and they can create their own personal Cabbage Patch Doll. They have a “delivery room” where a “nurse” delivers their doll from under a cabbage leaf. It’s a pretty awesome experience! I took both of my daughters there to get their own special doll there when they were little. There’s also birth certificates, announcements and baby clothes you can get for you doll. This was in the early 2000’s and my daughters still cherish the memories of adopting their Cabbage Patch Doll! I do remember how crazy it was when they first came out. People were crazy over them.
Definitely some of the biggest ever. It was really toy insanity and you could get a glimpse of how things would be in the future. Thank you for watching!
Wow! Brought back loads of memories! I had many of these growing up. Wish I kept them all 'cause I could probably retire early if I had. Never got into the Cabbage Patch dolls -- always thought they were kind'a creepy looking. LOVED the Pound Puppies though. I remember carrying mine around with me every where I went. Great video, Rhetty! Lots of fun sitting here reminiscing! Have a great evening! Valerie.
Thank you so much for watching Valerie! There were a lot of great toys in this decade. I'm also wishing I would have kept mine as well. I sold them for more than we paid for them at 18 but never would have dreamt that they would keep their value much less gain.
So much nostalgia! We had a lot of these. My Little Pony, Cabbage Patch Kids, He-Man , Pound Puppies. My friends had Trivial Pursuit and GloWorm. I remember GoBots! We had micro machines too!
Awww, I forgot all about my Glo-Worm!!!! Between Cabbage Patch Dolls, Barbies, Lady Lovely Locks', Little People, Care Bears, MLP, Teddy Ruxpin, Pound Puppies, My Buddy/Kid Sister, Rainbow Brite and Jem and the Holograms, the toys back then were fabulous! The children's and Young Teen books back then were so good, too! Nancy Drew and the Hardy Boys, Sweet Valley High/Twins/Kids, Christopher Pike and R.L. Stine 😍😍😍
September 1981 here. We are unique in a sense that we were born at the top of the decade; the babies of the first official year of the glorious '80s. And no, 1980 doesn't exactly count lol. 🥳🎂🍼🧸⭐
I just subscribed and being unwell this video really cheered me up.One of my earliest memories is when mum bought my first cabbage patch kid I was aged 4 and I remember it so vividly.It was night time and we went to Kmart and I remember the store seemed huge.In the middle of the store there was a huge square trolley piled high with cabbage patch dolls.As my sister aged 3 and i admired them we let out a squeal when mum said we could choose one each I couldn't believe mum allowed us one when it was neither Christmas nor my birthday I remember telling myself maybe I had just been well behaved I couldn't believe I could pick anyone I wanted.My sister and I giggled because none of the dolls had hair, I think that was on the later edition's.As we both we were very in decisive poor mum had to keep grabbing and putting back dolls which were stacked high in the shape of a pyramid.Just as mum said hurry up or the shop will close I picked my doll.It had a mint colored outfit and I struggled to carry the big box.As I happily skipped with excitement to the register to pay I heard a kid scream"can I have one mum".I knew I was a lucky girl and I wanted mum to drive fast as it seemed to take forever to get home I just wanted to open the box as I now had a baby to look after.Dont you just love the innocence of children.
Thank you for watching and subscribing. I'm sorry for that you are not feeling well but I'm glad the video helped you feel a little better. It's always great to hear others memories of the decade.
I remember the feeling of opening that Sears catalog n seeing the advertisement for the Cabbage Patch Doll n knowing I could not live without one.i made sure to get the best grades n do all my chores n on Xmas morning of 1983 I signed the adoption papers of my cabbage patch kid n it was the best Xmas ever!!!
I remember alot of these toys from the 80's , this video brought back alot of memories. I remember people fighting in retail stores over the Cabbage Patch Kids dolls, back in the 80's. I seen all of your previous toy shows, they're very entertaining. Take care 🐎
Thank you so much for watching Brenda and I'm glad you found the toy videos e tertaining. In my mind it seemed like the Cabbage Patch Kids were the first toy that parents lost their mind on. I know later there wad a little bit of it in the 90s with Furby.
Man some of this gives me chills, just going back and had most of these toys. At 48 I still look up some of the cartoons and listen to 80’s music everyday.
Does that bring back the good ole days. I completely forgot mad balls. So many other greats not mentioned. Sure did help remember lots of other memories.
love your videos. man, i remember all of those toys. my most wanted toy of that decade was a large sized Millennium Falcon along with all the SW action figures. What sweet memories.
What can I say? The 1980s were perfect for childhood. The characters were cute. Strawberry Shortcake was a cute rag doll looking girl with adorable eyes.. her cartoon was adorable and cute.. fast forward to this week and you will see her again in the 21st century with a hyperactive over the top fake like personality which is common in today's era cartoons along with the awful cal-art style. Carebears, Rainbow Brite, My Little Pony.. all are so ugly now and I feel sorry for the kids of today for having these pitiful offerings for their future nostalgia. Kids of today are so into tech and online devices they are unaware of the fun times we 80 kids had without technology and were more grateful for our toys as a result. Kids of today could never get into animatronic toys and would never be attached to Teddy Ruxpin for example like we were. I spent time examining his moving mouth fascinated by his motion and excited about owning him.. kids of today would be like.. he's creepy. They are also void of having the excitement of a cereal box toy and the kid meal items most of the fast food had.. these days it's just a plastic piece of goods from McDonald's. Back in the 1980s there were many fun items and more fast food places had collectables to get excited about. I could go on and on with how much better the 1980s were. I am grateful I grew up before technology poisoned society and the world
I think kids are really missing out on some great toys. I also think it's vital for developing an imagination as well as critical thinking skills. Most of the technology is spoonfed to them and they develop skills that could lead to innovation. Thank you for watching!
Speaking of great McDs and BK toys... they were made of better materials too that were hard to break. I totally agree with all you posted. Back then the clothes were less vulgar and less erotic too. Today I have a hard tie finding clothing that I would be comfortable in and that could last. I brought a "used" jacket and pant set from that time and still looks new with bright colors and wearable. People knew how to make things last. Now-a-days jeans would last under 8 months.
@@RhettyforHistory That is a great point. Play does develop your imagination. And it helps to create a number of other skills as well. We used to do things in the 80s, as kids, that I can't imagine kids nowadays would have any interest in, but were great for developing all kinds of skills - we made 'houses' of out old cardboard boxes and decorated them, made plays and put them on for our friends, things like that. One thing I had a lot of was paper dolls. Barbie ones, Rainbow Brite ones, etc. They came with punch-out clothing, but I used to make my own paper ones, too. Even with that kind of thing, you were creating something, not just stuck online like kids are now so often. Also so much of what we did was social. There's less of that now, and that effects the development of a kid's social skills.
My mom donated all and we had a LOT of our G.I Joe, Transformers and Star Wars toys to an orphanage. I remember helping carry the box’s of toys in to this day.
No one ever mentions Alphie II. It was a educational robot toy; you would insert cards and push buttons on him accordingly. I guess it wasn't very popular, but that was me and my brother's favorite toy!
Yeah, I remember Alphie II, I loved that toy too! I think the problem was that it was made for the younger kids and only came with a few cards, it was also more expensive so most parents couldn't afford it--but you always had a cousin, friend, or try me in the store.
Stay away from Ebay. It's vulture city over there. Lots of greedy people hoping the nostalgic will stop by and spend 10 times the original sales price.
Oh Gawd... I worked at a toy store when the Cabbage Kids dolls came out. The store would only get a few each week and always given to employees but we were told to lie to the customers and tell them to come back. I finally put my foot down and told the customers the truth. When told I had to lie by my boss, I flat out refused.
I would have trouble lying on that as well. Seems like that would make people even more mad than they already were. Thank you for watching and sharing your experience!
My son just turned 31 yesterday and he still has the cabbage patch that my wife - his mom- bought him when he was a few months old. Mom gave the doll same name.
I worked at KB Toys in 96 and everyone wanted " Tickle Me Elmo " ......id have to go to the stock room and pretend I was looking for one lol ( I would tell the customer " Sorry , We don't have any " ) Employees always , always , always gets first dibs on stuff off the truck .
1:44- I loved my glow worm! I hated that when I would start to drift off my hand would relax and the light go off, though. Then I'd have to start over, lol. I still loved it.
My girlfriend still has a few of her Barbie dolls from the sixties, they are in great condition being how old they are, she was offered 3500$ for one still in the original box, she turned it down, she knows money tight, but the memory of her grandmother means more.
He-man was one of my favorites back in the day. I had the castle and all sorts of things. I also loved my transformers. Kids today have it so sad. The 80's rocked!
Transformers and He-Man are still around today. The modern versions of those toys are, in some ways, better than the originals. Hasbro even made some Transformers recently that never got a toy in the 80s, like Arcee and Unicron.
Hard to believe that several of the toys shown here in this video were many that I fortunately had myself growing up and the memories that they bring while watching this.
I grow up in the 80’s it was the best time to grow up the toys the cartoons i still have all my micro machines I wish I could go back and do it all over again
Toys from: M.A.S.K, Dinoriders, Voltron, SheRa, Inspector Gadget. The 1980’s was really the best time for children as the toys matched their cartoons so children felt like they got to be part of their favourite cartoons. I had bits of everything: M.A.S.K, HeMan/SheRa, My little Pony, Transformers, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Glow Worm/bugs (they also had a small figurine range) match box cars, micro machines (including the aircraft carrier!)
Currenly 43 and I had a lot of those toys, pure nostalgia! I had action figures from E man with his mighty tiger! Also had action figures from The A-Team, star wars, Ghostbusters. The 80's were great! Music of the 80's as well!
Thank you for this video. My Baby Brother was Born in 1982. He passed last year 4 days after his 29th Birthday. He had many of these toys as did i...i was 12. This video brought back some nice Memories
Awesome job, Rhetty! You covered all the main and popular toys that were around when my kids were little. I showed this to my children and they were like oh my gosh those were my favorite toys I wish I would have kept them and had them today! 😄
If you had they would be major collectors items and some worth some good money. But who knew? I didn't save anything from my childhood. I sold many of them at age 18 and thought I made off good! Thank you all for watching!
I miss the days that you were able to fix your console just by blowing into the game cartridge really hard a few times. . . . Yes the good ole day's! 😇
The Nes wasn't a toy .....and blowing in the cartridge didn't help one bit ( taking the cartridge out and putting it back in so all the connectors were connected was what worked )
No one else remembers the M.A.S.K. toys and accompanying cartoon from the 80s? I'm still holding out hope for that live action film they've been trying to produce for that past 10 years or so!
MASK was awesome, but quite short-lived compared to other toys on the market. It was more successful in Europe than the US, especially in the UK, where it had a MASK comic book that lasted longer than the cartoon did (over 100 issues).
I had every thing that was He-Man. Man, if I knew then why I know now, I would be sitting on a pile of money. My and wife found an old glow worm at a thrift store right after my 1st son was born. For the first two years, every night he had to have that thing to go to sleep. It finally died and I couldn't fix it. The 80's was and always will be the best decade to be a kid because of the toys
An absolute blast from the past! I used to love my Evil Knievel Stunt Motorbike, Tin Can Alley Rifle Range , Big Track and I'm really cheesed that I got rid of all my Star Wars figures as they'd be worth a mint today! 🙁 Thanks for the nostalgia 😉
I sold mine in the 90s to a comic book and toy store and I really thought I made money on them then. They would have brought a lot more money now. I just had no place to store them though. Thank you for watching!

I don't have any but I sure had some when I was a kid.

Blurr was my favorite Transformer
If u were a kid in the 80s we can all agree it was the best time to grow up:) between music, toys, cartoons life was simple and great!
It was definitely a great decade for all the reasons you mentioned! Thank you for watching!
I grew up in the 80s and it was by far the best decade to be a kid in. The toys, the music, the movies. All were so great!
True
…you cant beat it, NOTHING CAN BEAT THE 80’s… Im screaming that till i die…
Unless u had a mom like mine who only let u have Christian stuff and toys was banned till Super Nintendo came out
Going through a Sears catalog and circling all of the items you wanted for Christmas was epic
Yes!!!!!!!!!
it was Argos, Toymaster and Leisureworld if you were from Northern Ireland :)
Yes!! I did that also!
Was the Toys r Us Christmas catalog produced in 89’s or 90’s?
Except back in the 1900s when it had another purpose 💩

It was certainly a great decade! Thank you for watching!
Got dat right it was fun times unlike today

Yea because you partied in the 90's!

@@jennyrose9454 The Jetsons, Tom and Jerry, The Flintstones and The Smurfs.
Neverending Story!
@@hmpz36911 yes! Neverending story! !
Haha I was a twenty something woman in the 80’s with two sons. I remember coming across a lone Cabbage Patch Kid sitting on a counter in a store one night. I grabbed that doll so quick. I still have it. So many of these toys were purchased for my boys. Good Memories. Thank you Rhetty!
I was also in my twenties. First job out of college & my boss had three kids I was always shopping for. She had some in for the Cabbage Patch. NJ
You managed to fit my entire childhood into 1 short video!
Oh my lord!!..My favorite toys in the 80's were:GI Joe.He-man and Stompers!!..GREAT Memories as a kid!!
Those were all great ones and they have special memories with me. Thank you for watching!
Stompers ???
For Cabbage Patch Dolls, there's a Cabbage Patch Hospital just outside of Helen Gerogia, which contains a museum, but also you can custom order new Cabbage Patch dolls with all the details you want, and they're made right there. You can then pick them up for adoption and be there when they're 'born'.
You're right about that and it's quite an attraction. Thank you for watching!
Oh that’s cool.
I had no idea that this was still open! Wow! I've never been there but as a child I always wanted to go (grew up on the West coast).
Thanks for mentioning this!❤️
I have my original dolls and ones I've found over the years. My children love them too!
@@RhettyforHistory Oh yes! I went there last year, it was quite the experience!
It’s called ‘“Babyland General Hospital?” I found it on RUclips and am gonna check it out! I adored my cabbage patch dolls in the 80s! I still have all three of them! Judy Christabella was my first and thus favorite - her red braided pig tails still smell a bit like baby powder because I put some on her back then lol.
My grandma was the one who braved getting it for me on Black Friday for me to have for X-mas that first year they blew up. I’ll never forget how surprised and excited I was upon opening the gift! I hadn’t asked for one or anything - parents just knew that every little girl loved them (and we seriously would take them EVERYWHERE, and sleep with them etc). The other ones I “adopted” was a premie named Wade Ely, and a short curly blonde hair girl named Layla (ugh I forget her middle name atm! I’m a bad mom!).
They were such high quality dolls! I can’t believe the advertisement here said they were only $19.95! Even when accounting for inflation, I’d think they’d be worth so much more with such high quality!
The 80’s were absolutely awesome. So glad it was the decade I grew up in.
I'm glad I was born during the 80s, 1983.
Between me and my boy neighbor we had all these. I was so jealous over his Night Rider big wheel with pull break :)
Sounds like you all had fun! They were good times for sure! Thank you for watching!
Classic I had one of those with the E-break. Was probably one of my Favorite Christmas 🎄 toy's 🤣
I had one of those too, loved it!!!!
Miss my childhood 😢
I didn't want this to end wow we 80s babies were the last to really love and play with toys we had some awesome things
The 80s was a great decade! Thank you for watching!
You hit the nail on the head, you absolutely said it best--we did really love and play with our toys. I had a "relationship" with my toys, tbh, talking to them and pretend play with them. The Toy Story movies really capture what it was like to be a kid playing with your toys in the 80s, especially if you were born in the mid to late 70s, because you were at the perfect childhood age; not too young, not too old.
My childhood in the 80s! Great times! 👍
It was a great decade! Thank you for watching!
Indeed.
Born in 74 and I loved my 80's! I wish I could turn back time! Kids these days dont know what it is to really be a kid.
As a kid from the 80's , this brings back so much nostalgia 🤯😊 It's sad that none of these products ever got a second life because the kids of today are too busy playing on cell phones and video games.
You are right about that. The toy market has really struggled against the technology. Thank you for watching!
Thats what im saying . The Nintendo wasnt a toy .....it was a video game console. ( And the phone you're complaining that kids are on .........yep , you're addicted to You Tube , social media , etc. Too . )
my nephews have all the tech stuff, but they always have liked and still play with real toys too, lots of lego stuff, star wars, transformers and even some halo themed toys. christmas of 2019 my 17 year old nephew got nothing but transformer toys, it was sweet
My son is not into phones or video games he's very retro. He wanted Dixie cups and glow worm as gifts
I was obsessed with computer games in the 80s so I can’t blame today’s kids for the same.
The 80s were the best years for toys, music, and TV! Going back to the whole Cabbage Patch Kids craze when my parents finally got one for my sister for Christmas. I loved the Autobots pic in this video, naming as many as I could, yet forgetting some names.
Thanks for the great video!
5 favorite 80s toys I had:
1. JEM Dolls
2. Sega Master System
3. Etch-a-Sketch Animator
4. Micro machines
5. She-Ra & He-Man Dolls
Fun video!
Thanks for sharing! That brought back a lot of great memories! The biggest ones for me were the Cabbage Patch Dolls and collecting the Garbage Pail Kid cards! I remember my parents couldn’t get those Cabbage Patch Dolls anywhere. We had to wait a long time. The Garbage Pail Kids were so cool with their looks and names. I had to collect them all!
I always thought that anyone who loved Cabbage Patch Kids hated the Garbage Pail Kids. Thank you for watching and sharing some of your memories.
@@RhettyforHistory I was a little older when I collected the Garbage Pail Kids cards!
We use to trade those cards at school
@@stephaniecorelli3034 me too! Lol.
I bought garage pail cards a few years ago on ebay
I was born in the late 80s so pretty much grew up in the 90's, but love the cartoons and toys of the 80's!
Thank you for watching.
The new Boss Baby movie has several He-Man action figures and a Castle Greyskull. My 3 year old saw the castle and busted out in the theater “ Hey, that’s a He-man castle!” Never been so proud lol
I loved He-Man! I watched the cartoon but always enjoyed the toys way more. Thank you for watching and sharing more on them.
I live in a small town along the Delaware in PA. Our police station is the old stone Catholic Church on top of a hill with views of the river. My son refers to it as Castle GreySkull 😂
I was Born in 82. So yes, I remember the Glory Day's of the 1980's 🤠👍🍒💃🇺🇸I remember playing with my cousin. She was such fun to play outside with all day. Riding bikes,climbing tree's, playing with toys, riding big wheels down the hill.
Those all sound like fun! It was definitely a great decade! Thank you for watching!
Hey Rhett, Cabbage Patch Dolls originated in Cleveland, Ga several years before the toy manufacturers started mass producing them. The original building is still there and you can take your child there and they can create their own personal Cabbage Patch Doll. They have a “delivery room” where a “nurse” delivers their doll from under a cabbage leaf. It’s a pretty awesome experience! I took both of my daughters there to get their own special doll there when they were little. There’s also birth certificates, announcements and baby clothes you can get for you doll. This was in the early 2000’s and my daughters still cherish the memories of adopting their Cabbage Patch Doll! I do remember how crazy it was when they first came out. People were crazy over them.
This decade had the most impactful toylines ever.
Definitely some of the biggest ever. It was really toy insanity and you could get a glimpse of how things would be in the future. Thank you for watching!
Indeed.
My favorite toys as a kid was Strawberry Shortcake dolls and Sea Wees! I didn’t own any of the Jem and the Holograms dolls, but loved the cartoon!!
Thank you for watching and sharing some of your favorites.
Best era of toys period..,, and nd of story. This list didn’t even scratch the surface of all the amazing toys of the 80s!!!
You're right this decade had all of the popular toys of previous decades plus the current ones. Thank you for watching!
Wow! Brought back loads of memories! I had many of these growing up.
Wish I kept them all 'cause I could probably retire early if I had.
Never got into the Cabbage Patch dolls -- always thought they were kind'a creepy looking.
LOVED the Pound Puppies though. I remember carrying mine around with me every where I went.
Great video, Rhetty! Lots of fun sitting here reminiscing!
Have a great evening!
Valerie.
Thank you so much for watching Valerie! There were a lot of great toys in this decade. I'm also wishing I would have kept mine as well. I sold them for more than we paid for them at 18 but never would have dreamt that they would keep their value much less gain.
The good old days! Miss those days
Yesterday were! Thank you for watching!
Me too.
Yes! So many memories watching this. I was a kid in the 80s, and I played with so many of them. Thanks!
I remember buying my oldest niece her 1st Cabbage Patch kid. Oh Man! She really loved that doll. The 80s really were the best time
Yesss, being a kid in the 80s was fleckin’ awesome, 😆 (b.1978!!)
Yes it was! Thank you for watching!
I was a kid in the 80s.. I’m 52 now.. Still don’t know where time went. Thank you for this. Took me back 😊
1980's
where kids got an actual toy and were happy to play with it.
2021
where kids expect a smartphone as their toy and nothing else
You're right about that. I think kids now days are really missing out on the fun! Thanks for watching!
um no
😂😂😂😂💯💯💯💯💯
So much nostalgia! We had a lot of these. My Little Pony, Cabbage Patch Kids, He-Man , Pound Puppies. My friends had Trivial Pursuit and GloWorm. I remember GoBots! We had micro machines too!
There were a lot of toys by this time period but a lot of times friends would have things someone else didn't. Thank you for watching Brenda!
@@RhettyforHistory oh yes and it was fun to share toys and try new things. Thank you for the great video! Always enjoy your content😊
You're welcome. That was always the best thing to have friends over or to go over at their house and play with different toys.
Did you have bow biters for your shoes
@@jennyrose9454 no, but I have some now!😂
No decade will ever beat the 80s as greatest decade for kids.
Awww, I forgot all about my Glo-Worm!!!! Between Cabbage Patch Dolls, Barbies, Lady Lovely Locks', Little People, Care Bears, MLP, Teddy Ruxpin, Pound Puppies, My Buddy/Kid Sister, Rainbow Brite and Jem and the Holograms, the toys back then were fabulous! The children's and Young Teen books back then were so good, too! Nancy Drew and the Hardy Boys, Sweet Valley High/Twins/Kids, Christopher Pike and R.L. Stine 😍😍😍
GI Joe, transforms, He-Man, Mask, and of course NINTENDO.
They were all awesome! Thanks for watching!
Don't forget Atari
Atari came out in the 1970s so I have it in that decades video. It certainly remained popular and got even bigger in the 1980s.
@@RhettyforHistory You're absolutely correct was even bigger in the 80s I was born in the mid 70s
Damn 😢😢 brings back great memories !!! I grew up in the '80s had a lot of these myself
Born in 1981❤️ the 80’s had the best toys, movies, TV shows, and music ❤️❤️❤️❤️
It really was a great decade! Thank you for watching!
I was born in 1981 too and i totally agree with you😎❤
September 1981 here. We are unique in a sense that we were born at the top of the decade; the babies of the first official year of the glorious '80s. And no, 1980 doesn't exactly count lol. 🥳🎂🍼🧸⭐
I was sad to not see the ThunderCats on this list but I can understand why they wouldn't be here when He-Man was.
So many memories.
I just subscribed and being unwell this video really cheered me up.One of my earliest memories is when mum bought my first cabbage patch kid I was aged 4 and I remember it so vividly.It was night time and we went to Kmart and I remember the store seemed huge.In the middle of the store there was a huge square trolley piled high with cabbage patch dolls.As my sister aged 3 and i admired them we let out a squeal when mum said we could choose one each I couldn't believe mum allowed us one when it was neither Christmas nor my birthday I remember telling myself maybe I had just been well behaved I couldn't believe I could pick anyone I wanted.My sister and I giggled because none of the dolls had hair, I think that was on the later edition's.As we both we were very in decisive poor mum had to keep grabbing and putting back dolls which were stacked high in the shape of a pyramid.Just as mum said hurry up or the shop will close I picked my doll.It had a mint colored outfit and I struggled to carry the big box.As I happily skipped with excitement to the register to pay I heard a kid scream"can I have one mum".I knew I was a lucky girl and I wanted mum to drive fast as it seemed to take forever to get home I just wanted to open the box as I now had a baby to look after.Dont you just love the innocence of children.
Thank you for watching and subscribing. I'm sorry for that you are not feeling well but I'm glad the video helped you feel a little better. It's always great to hear others memories of the decade.
I remember the feeling of opening that Sears catalog n seeing the advertisement for the Cabbage Patch Doll n knowing I could not live without one.i made sure to get the best grades n do all my chores n on Xmas morning of 1983 I signed the adoption papers of my cabbage patch kid n it was the best Xmas ever!!!
I remember alot of these toys from the 80's , this video brought back alot of memories. I remember people fighting in retail stores over the Cabbage Patch Kids dolls, back in the 80's. I seen all of your previous toy shows, they're very entertaining. Take care 🐎
Thank you so much for watching Brenda and I'm glad you found the toy videos e tertaining. In my mind it seemed like the Cabbage Patch Kids were the first toy that parents lost their mind on. I know later there wad a little bit of it in the 90s with Furby.
Man some of this gives me chills, just going back and had most of these toys. At 48 I still look up some of the cartoons and listen to 80’s music everyday.
Does that bring back the good ole days. I completely forgot mad balls. So many other greats not mentioned. Sure did help remember lots of other memories.
You're right there was a lot not mentioned. It's difficult to put them all in a video!
love your videos. man, i remember all of those toys. my most wanted toy of that decade was a large sized Millennium Falcon along with all the SW action figures. What sweet memories.
I'm so thankful to have been an 80's/90's kid! Love your channel! I'm a new subscriber, keep up the great work!
Thank you for watching and welcome to the channel! I'm glad you are here!
Ty for posting these were many toys I had as a kid
You're welcome and thank you for watching!
What can I say? The 1980s were perfect for childhood. The characters were cute. Strawberry Shortcake was a cute rag doll looking girl with adorable eyes.. her cartoon was adorable and cute.. fast forward to this week and you will see her again in the 21st century with a hyperactive over the top fake like personality which is common in today's era cartoons along with the awful cal-art style.
Carebears, Rainbow Brite, My Little Pony.. all are so ugly now and I feel sorry for the kids of today for having these pitiful offerings for their future nostalgia.
Kids of today are so into tech and online devices they are unaware of the fun times we 80 kids had without technology and were more grateful for our toys as a result. Kids of today could never get into animatronic toys and would never be attached to Teddy Ruxpin for example like we were. I spent time examining his moving mouth fascinated by his motion and excited about owning him.. kids of today would be like.. he's creepy.
They are also void of having the excitement of a cereal box toy and the kid meal items most of the fast food had.. these days it's just a plastic piece of goods from McDonald's. Back in the 1980s there were many fun items and more fast food places had collectables to get excited about.
I could go on and on with how much better the 1980s were. I am grateful I grew up before technology poisoned society and the world
I think kids are really missing out on some great toys. I also think it's vital for developing an imagination as well as critical thinking skills. Most of the technology is spoonfed to them and they develop skills that could lead to innovation. Thank you for watching!
Speaking of great McDs and BK toys... they were made of better materials too that were hard to break.
I totally agree with all you posted. Back then the clothes were less vulgar and less erotic too. Today I have a hard tie finding clothing that I would be comfortable in and that could last. I brought a "used" jacket and pant set from that time and still looks new with bright colors and wearable. People knew how to make things last. Now-a-days jeans would last under 8 months.
@@RhettyforHistory That is a great point. Play does develop your imagination. And it helps to create a number of other skills as well.
We used to do things in the 80s, as kids, that I can't imagine kids nowadays would have any interest in, but were great for developing all kinds of skills - we made 'houses' of out old cardboard boxes and decorated them, made plays and put them on for our friends, things like that.
One thing I had a lot of was paper dolls. Barbie ones, Rainbow Brite ones, etc. They came with punch-out clothing, but I used to make my own paper ones, too. Even with that kind of thing, you were creating something, not just stuck online like kids are now so often.
Also so much of what we did was social. There's less of that now, and that effects the development of a kid's social skills.
@@Julia-nl3gqLots of kids still do pillow and blanket forts with their parents...
My mom donated all and we had a LOT of our G.I Joe, Transformers and Star Wars toys to an orphanage. I remember helping carry the box’s of toys in to this day.
Definitely a weird feeling when you get rid of your toys. Thank you for watching!
No one ever mentions Alphie II. It was a educational robot toy; you would insert cards and push buttons on him accordingly. I guess it wasn't very popular, but that was me and my brother's favorite toy!
Yeah, I remember Alphie II, I loved that toy too! I think the problem was that it was made for the younger kids and only came with a few cards, it was also more expensive so most parents couldn't afford it--but you always had a cousin, friend, or try me in the store.
I was an 80s kid and loved every minute of growing up in that decade and loved the toys we had too.
OMG .I had a bunch of these toys .I is really cool to relive the toys of my childhood.
They were great toys! Thank you for watching!
Stay away from Ebay. It's vulture city over there. Lots of greedy people hoping the nostalgic will stop by and spend 10 times the original sales price.
Yup yup yup!!!....I was born in 82 .....a child in the 80s and a teen in the 90s.....great times
I was a kid in the 80's. Great times.
i certainly remember many of these toys and the shows/movies apart of them
My childhood! 80s babies unite❤️
Awwwwwww ❤the 80’s I remember these toys again 80’s were the best ❤😂
Ahh! Nostalgia! I loved my NES 🥰
They were hours and hours of fun and they changed gaming for good! Thank you for watching!
The NES was not a toy . I bought a NES in 1987 and it was in electronics. ......not toy department.
@@RhettyforHistory Hours and Hours ? First , it wasn't a toy . Second , days and days , months and months was put into my NES ...lol
10:46 - I remember having that Gobot gun. I still have a lot of my old Transformers and He-man.
Oh Gawd... I worked at a toy store when the Cabbage Kids dolls came out. The store would only get a few each week and always given to employees but we were told to lie to the customers and tell them to come back. I finally put my foot down and told the customers the truth. When told I had to lie by my boss, I flat out refused.
I would have trouble lying on that as well. Seems like that would make people even more mad than they already were. Thank you for watching and sharing your experience!
My son just turned 31 yesterday and he still has the cabbage patch that my wife - his mom- bought him when he was a few months old. Mom gave the doll same name.
I worked at KB Toys in 96 and everyone wanted " Tickle Me Elmo " ......id have to go to the stock room and pretend I was looking for one lol ( I would tell the customer " Sorry , We don't have any " )
Employees always , always , always gets first dibs on stuff off the truck .
Love this video. I totally grew up with these toys and cartoons.
I loved Stompers. Had a whole bunch of those. Loved to make dirt hills, and watch them roll over them.
They were hours and hours of fun! Thank you for watching!
1:44- I loved my glow worm! I hated that when I would start to drift off my hand would relax and the light go off, though. Then I'd have to start over, lol. I still loved it.
Thank you for watching and sharing your memory with the glow worm.
My girlfriend still has a few of her Barbie dolls from the sixties, they are in great condition being how old they are, she was offered 3500$ for one still in the original box, she turned it down, she knows money tight, but the memory of her grandmother means more.
I can certainly understand that. But if she ever does need it then it's a great thing to have as well. Thank you for watching!
He-man was one of my favorites back in the day. I had the castle and all sorts of things. I also loved my transformers. Kids today have it so sad. The 80's rocked!
Transformers and He-Man are still around today. The modern versions of those toys are, in some ways, better than the originals. Hasbro even made some Transformers recently that never got a toy in the 80s, like Arcee and Unicron.
I miss the 80s
They were good times! Thank you for watching!
Me too😢
Hard to believe that several of the toys shown here in this video were many that I fortunately had myself growing up and the memories that they bring while watching this.
They were good times and great toya! Thank you for watching!
The 80s we're simply the best decade ever. Everything was awesome
Indeed.
@@annasbandit Sorry, just trying to keep my sentences short and simple.
I grow up in the 80’s it was the best time to grow up the toys the cartoons i still have all my micro machines I wish I could go back and do it all over again
Toys from: M.A.S.K, Dinoriders, Voltron, SheRa, Inspector Gadget.
The 1980’s was really the best time for children as the toys matched their cartoons so children felt like they got to be part of their favourite cartoons. I had bits of everything: M.A.S.K, HeMan/SheRa, My little Pony, Transformers, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Glow Worm/bugs (they also had a small figurine range) match box cars, micro machines (including the aircraft carrier!)
You're right! Those cartoons were the perfect advertisements for the toys. The franchises were doing well. Thank you for watching!
Currenly 43 and I had a lot of those toys, pure nostalgia! I had action figures from E man with his mighty tiger! Also had action figures from The A-Team, star wars, Ghostbusters. The 80's were great! Music of the 80's as well!
Those were all great toys! You're right about the 80s having some great music as well! Thank you for watching!
Thank you for this video. My Baby Brother was Born in 1982. He passed last year 4 days after his 29th Birthday. He had many of these toys as did i...i was 12. This video brought back some nice Memories
This was an awesome flash back of nostalgia thanks!!
You're welcome and thank you for watching!
My daughter just gave me a Monchhichi light up doll for Xmas 🎄. I can't get the song out of my head
I love the original Care Bear movies from the '80s
Awesome job, Rhetty! You covered all the main and popular toys that were around when my kids were little. I showed this to my children and they were like oh my gosh those were my favorite toys I wish I would have kept them and had them today! 😄
If you had they would be major collectors items and some worth some good money. But who knew? I didn't save anything from my childhood. I sold many of them at age 18 and thought I made off good! Thank you all for watching!
Toys that I had:
6:41 - Koosh
10:41 - Go Bots wristwatch
12:50 - Nintendo Entertainment System
14:35 - Mad Balls
You had some good ones from this decade too! Thank you for watching!
I had none but I had a GE Superadio for listening to the distant AM stations
I had that transformers tape player! Good times.
Thank you for this video sir. So many memories.
You're welcome and thank you for watching!
I miss the days that you were able to fix your console just by blowing into the game cartridge really hard a few times. . . . Yes the good ole day's! 😇
It was definitely a lot more simple. Thank you for watching!
The Nes wasn't a toy .....and blowing in the cartridge didn't help one bit ( taking the cartridge out and putting it back in so all the connectors were connected was what worked )
We still have my husband's original NES, with most of his games and the Game Genie! I kick my kids' butts on it! Lol
For all the sad folks, you don’t have to let your inner kid die. As an adult, feel free to enjoy all these 80’s gems 😊
yea I started collecting dolls a year ago and its so fun!
And I bought a scented care bear recently
I miss my little ponies, cabbage patches, Care Bears and pound puppies. I put my loose ball in a time capsule in school.
Mlp gen 1 repros exist. I collect them
Thank you for the memories.
You're welcome and thank you for watching!
I was born 1980.. Im so happy about that. I had all of these toys, wonderful memoris!!
No one else remembers the M.A.S.K. toys and accompanying cartoon from the 80s? I'm still holding out hope for that live action film they've been trying to produce for that past 10 years or so!
MASK was awesome, but quite short-lived compared to other toys on the market. It was more successful in Europe than the US, especially in the UK, where it had a MASK comic book that lasted longer than the cartoon did (over 100 issues).
M.A.S.K. was the awesome
I had every thing that was He-Man. Man, if I knew then why I know now, I would be sitting on a pile of money.
My and wife found an old glow worm at a thrift store right after my 1st son was born. For the first two years, every night he had to have that thing to go to sleep. It finally died and I couldn't fix it.
The 80's was and always will be the best decade to be a kid because of the toys
I love that darn laughing duck hunt dog❤
An absolute blast from the past! I used to love my Evil Knievel Stunt Motorbike, Tin Can Alley Rifle Range , Big Track and I'm really cheesed that I got rid of all my Star Wars figures as they'd be worth a mint today! 🙁 Thanks for the nostalgia 😉
I sold mine in the 90s to a comic book and toy store and I really thought I made money on them then. They would have brought a lot more money now. I just had no place to store them though. Thank you for watching!
Lol , You basically named toys that was before the 80s .
