Don't forget the best toy ever made. The box the toys came in as kids back then still knew how to use their imaginations and turn it into anything they desired. No batteries needed.
There was no mention of Tonka / Buddy L, Lylint, metal trucks, cars, construction equipment. No mention of Toy trains which were the big ticket item in the 1950's . Lionel, American Flyer, and Marx were popular brands. There are special interest groups dedicated to collecting and restoring these treasures.
60's boys liked playing army, cowboys and Indians. Having most of the toys as a kid, the #1 toy I thought getting from Santa in probably mid 60's I remember most was my "Johnny 7" toy gun that combined 7 different weapons into one gun. Coolest toy ever.
I've often said in the 60s we were the best armed adolescents ever. And yes the Johnny 7 was a bad mamma jamma. And I find it funny how much modern weapons look like the toys from the past
Slot cars were big. I had Aurora HO Scale cars in the 60s and early 70s. They were the best. And a ton of Matchbox cars that filled a briefcase made by Matchbox. That was also the era of Hot Wheels Red Line cars. I had my share of those. Good times! All gone now.
I used to take my car down to the local slot car tracks in the small town where I lived. We would race our cars against each other and afterwards go to the Rexall drug store for ice cream sodas and comic books. Simpler times.
One thing you haven't showing yet.is the aurora ho racing set.ive had since 1966.still in the original set.& I still have the original 1st electronic battle ship game.that makes sounds.
Yep - Our parents made things from scratch or early box mixes.....and we did too with our little ovens... Our parents didn't have delivered meals such as Hello Fresh and other fully processed meals for the family.....like a full pan of lasagna or salad in a bag.
I grew up in Pittsburgh and lived there for over 50 years and never knew they had a Heinz Museum. I had a lot of those toys. I was playing with them before the Fort Pitt Tunnels were built.
Hi Keith! I'm not positive when it opened, but my 1st visit was in 1991. A terrific way to spend the day. The Smithsonian partnered up with them and expanded the space. Definitely a "must-visit" when ur in town. 😁🖤✨️💛
My love of playing with Barbie and Ken turned me into an adult doll collector! I still love them and have many vintage ones in my collection. I love to display them and photograph them.
Still looking for a board game, I was around 7 or 9 years old that would be in the 50th I was born in 1948, I remember this game just a tap. It had a little figure, a little man that had a pointer or a rod held in both hands almost point straight down, you would put him in the middle of the game on top of a small mirror and he would move around and pointed. at what I don't remember. Does anybody recall this game, a picture of this would be great or the name, I'm 73 like to see this one more time. Thanks
I think this must be it!! (1952) ruclips.net/video/xzD3XvqBWRo/видео.html The comment section describes it more! "The Magical Amazing Robot"...... this game looks so awesome,I would have loved it being born in 1960 but never saw it before now...! :-)
@@ellengauthier3430 You think correct that's it, Thank you so much that brought tears to me, WOW amazing when you have a slight memory of something and and with the help of someone like you has found this. You have truly made my day, as I told you I only remembered the little figure with a pointer on a mirror. I can't thank you enough you made an old kid happy I'm73 March. Now let me see if I can remember something else LOL Bernie
So glad I was able to help you find that childhood memory!! I just Googled the keywords you used to describe it and that game popped up ...I found one of my old games and old books that way ,too; I know the special joy in seeing something once again from one's past, like a feeling of relief that you didn't just imagine it +also thought you might like this link to a clip of an episode of one of my favorite "Twilight Zone" shows about revisiting childhood memories~ its comment section really hits the nail on the head for this particular clip, I know ,cuz I'm just a big kid at heart, too! Lol, precious memories! This episode and its background music gets me everytime 😭......enjoy! I'll post episode link below.......it's called"Walking Distance" and it's very bittersweet and unforgettable. Here it is: ruclips.net/video/QUn2BNydxIY/видео.html
Probably to "pique ur interest" so you would want to visit. A TON of interesting things to see and learn from. Smithsonian are partnered up with them now. Terrific way to spend the day. 😁🖤✨️💛
I have played with a lot of those toys when I was a kid I was born in 1967 I remember the Gumby stretches out large and legs the twinkie I remember the little robots I remember the cap guns the one with the eagle on the side I had one I may even still have that I also had a sesame Street puppet toy I had birt and my brother had Ernie and we used to pretend doing a comedy act ourselves with them
During the 70s I received a chemistry set for Christmas. In the summer time I discovered a store that sold the chemicals for a chemistry set. It was cool, rather than sending in for new chemicals from the manufacturer I can just walk a half of mile and get it myself along with extra test tube beakers and a few other things.
I had little kiddles but don't remember their names. I had the blonde hair one and l think another(l'm 'old' and memory fails) l had a few pieces of kiddles size furniture too. They disappeared years ago. My 2yrs younger niece had a blonde doll too. She chewed off the hands and feet; l asked her why? she said l was hungry.
When I was a kid. My nickname was gumby .when I go back home I'm still known as gumby . My friend who started calling me that commented suicide back in 1980 while I had just talked to him 5 minutes before he did. I wish he would have told me what was wrong. I think I could have stopped him. I think of him alot
The 70's toys were the best. GI Joe, Big Jim, Shogun Warriors, Star Wars, Mego Superheroes, Bionic Man, Planet of the Apes, Micronauts, Adventure People. Where's all the guns? We played guns all the time. There were so many pull back and machine gun sound guns, wooden bolt action trainer rifles where the bullet look like it loaded, pistols that shot those discs,
When I was a kid back in the fifties and sixties my sister and I received I don't remember the name of it but it was like a spinning wheel thing that spun yarn as in a knitting type thing like an rupple stiltskin never forgot that toy had lots of fun with it
I grew up at the same timeframe but never had the toy you described. But I did have the pot holder maker where you put the stretchy colored loops on the square metal frame & wove potholders. We sold them as kids!
Little known fact: the prototypes used cadaver heads from the local morgue. Market testing families were suitably aghast when that detail was revealed (the leather covering occasionally came apart). Lawsuits and outrage eventually forced the substitution of bags of broken glass, fashioned into crude head/potato-like shapes.
This may be the most subtle SJW video ever! It's focus on gender & race was awesome!!!! Please please please never mention the single most popular toy for boys - hundreds & hundreds of toys that shoot, launch, make explosive noises!!!! No, we certainly didn't click on this for a nostalgic walk down memory lane. It was our interest in how racist & bigoted we were!!!!!
Foghorn Leghorn Nope, not everyone is so intent on proving how racist and misogynistic things were back in the 50s and 60s. Its a shame that that's your point of view.
Foghorn Leghorn Yikes. Now I'm not sure if you were serious with your first comment! I thought you were. Okay, how can we figure this out? I genuinely watched the video to see the old toys, not to look for evidence that we were too gender-specific or evidence of racism. Ok, now it's your turn to explain. Was your initial comment serious? (I thought it was, so my answer was serious, not a joke). I think that in the 50s and 60s there wasn't the pervasive racism or anti-woman attitude that that era is criticized as having. Maybe I just didn't notice it back then. Maybe the idea that girls and boys enjoyed different kinds of toys just didn't seem to be a problem to me. I know racism was a real thing in some places, but even so at the time it seemed to me that people in general were working to stop racism. So, was your first comment serious? I noticed the narrator's very obvious attempt to make these toys seem offensive. Now THAT seemed offensive and a little forced to me.
It's true that sarcasm doesn't always work in RUclips comments. I think many people agree that we came to this video for the nostalgia but got instead a healthy dose of someone's SJW gender nonsense.
In the 1960s, I had Mr. AND Mrs. Potato Head, AND I also had plastic Carrot head, but I liked my Eggplant head the BEST. And yes, I still miss my beautiful Babs doll.
I'm looking for a style at and I have tall and it has blue or pink hair that you style with the brush that it comes with it has big bloodshot googly eyes
"TRAINING CHILDREN"......IMO - These toys were not training kids....My chemistry set did not train me to be a scientist and my Dale Evens cowgirl outfit did not teach me to ride a horse or kiss a cowboy...What a crock....IMO - Using the word "TRAINING" seems to be rather biased when used with these toys.
Gumby,Pokey, Barney's Auto Factory Johnny Seven OMA(One Man Army) Kenner Easy-Bake Oven GI Joe doll...with footlocker n accessories,Barbie n Ken,Electric Football games,Slinky (still around too)Etch-A-Sketch (1960)...that's still around....
Lincoln logs. One of my favorites. Coolest toy from the 60's I ever got and have the most memories of was my "Johnny 7". I played with that thing and fought so many wars with it over the next few years until it was finally so beat up and worn out and retired to the garbage can.
So from that little info about marketers aiming certain toys at boys or at girls, girls toward domestics and boys toward workforce, and then the Mr, Potato Head was the first televised toy commercial, got me to thinking...is this why there are so many fucked-up plastic surgeries? I'm just sayin'...Food for thought there!
Those troll dolls were originally called Dam Things.Not Dam dolls. I remember when they first marketed them and what an uproar it caused til they changed the name to trolls. I still have a Dam Thing from then, and it has Dam embossed into the cheek of it's butt.
Connie Bliss - It's funny, where I grew up, when those troll dolls came out, they were all over the place and I collected them when I was little. But they were called Wishnicks. Anyone else know them by that name?
I have a lot of things that I call “Damn Things.” I had a 1973 Chevy Caprice that I called a Damn Thing because it spent lots of time in the repair shop.
I had the entire Major Matt Mason series of toys! I wanted to become an astronaut as a young fellow and my family indulged my hunger for all space related toys. I still have all my Matt Mason toys including two Matt Mason figures and one Sgt. Storm still in their original, unopened, packaging. Thanks for remembering such a great offering from Mattel.👍🏼
My co-workers gave me a beautiful re-issue of the original Barbie on the 30th anniversary of the Barbie doll. She looks just like the original, two outfits came with her, a striped bathing suit and the fitted black evening gown. I left her and other collectibles in a locked closet when I left my second husband. His girlfriend broke the lock and sold my collectible dolls and other stuff. She got $700 for all of the things that were in the closet. Years later I found another one of that re-issued Barbie and I still have her. Shes not worth much money, but it was really good to get her back.
Why do we always have to have the "diversity " card thrown? And, in all truthfullness, it was a better world when moms could stay home, cook, sew, clean, and not be made to feel ashamed about it as the "Progessives" plow them under. Just show the toys.
There was a toy I had in mid 1960s. I thought it was a wall walker...it had a wheel with about 7 suction cups and walked down the wall...don't know the manufacturer or name...
David Keeler - My brother and I had one each - it was called Super Bird. It had a little cape. I had a white one, my brother had a red one. You pull a string, set it on the wall, and the spring-loaded wheel with suction cups made it climb the wall. There was an earlier version of it called Yogi Bird wall walker. It was pretty much the same thing, only instead of a pull-string, it had a key on it's side to tension the spring. Was it one of these you were talking about?
"Since the dawn of time?" Wow I never knew cavemen or cave boys and girls played with these toys! Or their own toys to play with like rocks probably pet rocks was thought of back then and not the 70s! They gotta have that GI Joe caveman series I guess!
Gosh, she isn't much FUN in the toy museum! No mention of how we LOVED these toys!!!! She has to keep talking about gender. THEY WERE GREAT TOYS!!! Kids don't care about the politics or gender- she is a killjoy.
Don't forget the best toy ever made. The box the toys came in as kids back then still knew how to use their imaginations and turn it into anything they desired. No batteries needed.
I still like the box better.
Great!!!

GI Joe and hot wheels were the greatest toys ever made!

Your focus should be on toys and not gender identity.
How about how you had the toys is focusing on the toys it shows that you enjoy them when you were a kid too
Um nobody did that crap back then...be realistic
Social Justice Warrior toys
Judith Sides agreed, the woman seems to not so subtlety imply that if your son is wasn't prancing around he needed girl's toys.
Marx Toys made Rock'em Sock'em Robots. The "Marx Brothers" made movies.

My co-workers gave me a beautiful re-issue of the original Barbie on the 30th anniversary of the Barbie doll. She looks just like the original, two outfits came with her, a striped bathing suit and the fitted black evening gown. I left her and other collectibles in a locked closet when I left my second husband. His girlfriend broke the lock and sold my collectible dolls and other stuff. She got $700 for all of the things that were in the closet. Years later I found another one of that re-issued Barbie and I still have her. Shes not worth much money, but it was really good to get her back.
Why do we always have to have the "diversity " card thrown? And, in all truthfullness, it was a better world when moms could stay home, cook, sew, clean, and not be made to feel ashamed about it as the "Progessives" plow them under. Just show the toys.
More about the toys and less about your politically correct nonsense. This is one museum i will definitely avoid.👎
pause at 2:00 that brother was a jerk lol
Sarah Lee doll?
Why did the exhibit rooms have to be based on Barbie? A bit sexist, isn't it? This was supposed to be about toys, instead just more SJW tripe.
You failed to mention Lionel trains,those were huge in the fifties. We had more than a mr potato head, this is a museum?
And don't forget Erector Sets and Lincoln Logs. Actually made from real wood.
Imagination and creativity are hallucinations only allow ipad
if they would have actually shown the toys and not this talking head this could have been an interesting piece..
Trolls were 60’s
There was a toy I had in mid 1960s. I thought it was a wall walker...it had a wheel with about 7 suction cups and walked down the wall...don't know the manufacturer or name...
David Keeler i remember that but dont know the name either. Gonna google it lol
David Keeler - My brother and I had one each - it was called Super Bird. It had a little cape. I had a white one, my brother had a red one. You pull a string, set it on the wall, and the spring-loaded wheel with suction cups made it climb the wall. There was an earlier version of it called Yogi Bird wall walker. It was pretty much the same thing, only instead of a pull-string, it had a key on it's side to tension the spring. Was it one of these you were talking about?
Yeah, it was a bird with a cape!
I had a similar toy but it was Howdy Doody.
This was a very disjointed clip. The toys were great
We three kids stretched and finally broke Gumby in half in 1968....sorry the real Gumby died a long time ago.
That was fun.
"Since the dawn of time?" Wow I never knew cavemen or cave boys and girls played with these toys! Or their own toys to play with like rocks probably pet rocks was thought of back then and not the 70s! They gotta have that GI Joe caveman series I guess!
Me dejaron esto de tarea :(
Yes. Me too. 😁🥴
Only an eight second cheap glimpse of hot wheels?...no model cars?....rip off
I don't think a full display of toys is the point of this video.....
I grew up in the '70s and never saw or heard of any of the libtard toys she talked about.
Leave partisan politics out of toy discussions.
Exactly the point
Barbie was copied off German doll Lilli.
What? Couldn't find a toy made by an American African? It would have fit right in with this video! 😂
Not a thing about trains the video sucked
slinky, the toy that never worked properly. You have to push it, or in my case "kick" it!
Gosh, she isn't much FUN in the toy museum! No mention of how we LOVED these toys!!!! She has to keep talking about gender. THEY WERE GREAT TOYS!!! Kids don't care about the politics or gender- she is a killjoy.
