onlyme2 Posted August 10, 2014 Share Posted August 10, 2014 I used to love a game of 40/40, or it's relative Tin Can Tommy. Called it kick the can, agree brilliant fun it was. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DTMark Posted August 11, 2014 Share Posted August 11, 2014 Going out for the evening with a bunch of mates armed with a six pack of eggs. Trying to throw them through peoples' open kitchen windows while they were in the kitchen. We were chased for a mile once but then nobody forty-something is going to catch a group of 14 year-olds.

crashmonitor Posted July 28, 2015 Author Share Posted July 28, 2015 Bump because I have found and brought back to life the Tomy TOMYTRONIC 3D "Tank Attack" game that must be 25ish years old. Just look at those gfx In similar vein I have finally manged to link a toy I remembered having from about 1966, you begin to doubt your memory but google finally turned something up. These Batman and Robin figures were tiny and moved off a ball bearing. £65 on ebay...Probably half a crown for the pair back then. https://s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/736x/2b/6f/3a/2b6f3ad9b9b3a99e0d0c5d25fb89482a.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrPin Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 Who remembers "Multipuzzle"? It's not a computer game. It's something my aunt bought us, my dad still has it in a drawer. It's a load of plastic shapes! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crashmonitor Posted July 28, 2015 Author Share Posted July 28, 2015 Before my time (1960). £4.50 on ebay, so there must be quite a few boxes kicking around. https://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/122633/multipuzzle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Compukit UK101 Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 I remember a playground game called "Murder Ball". It basically consisted of kicking a ball randomly around a tennis court painted on the playground. If you were the last person to kick the ball before it went of the court/playground then it was essentially 'fair game' to kick you until you could get off the playground. It was bloody terrifying to play but also strangely addictive. I expect it would be banned today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't see these around much now (below) - we called them Cadgies, but that seems to mean something else nowadays ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alberta Tatlock Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 While on holiday recently I saw one of these sets in a gift shop: http://www.amazon.com/Kahootz-01001-S-Spirograph-Deluxe-Design/dp/B009VE38CI I was thinking about buying it for nostalgic reasons for myself (my own teenagers would just look at it and laugh) until I saw that, presumably due to 'elf and safety', it now comes with 're-usbale spiro putty'. In other words the little pins with the plastic heads have been superceded. Incredible. How is one supposed to get a go when your brother is hogging it ... stab his hand with spiro putty?
