Biggest Regrets
 
I know lots of the members of this site had tons of TMNT stuff growing up, myself included. My question is, what toys did you lose/break growing up that you regret not having today. If you can, also post how you got your particular lost treasue back (and what you did to get it).

For me it's Triceraton, movie star leo, and the Mutant Module (that thing was so cool!)

ahem :embarass: I lost EVERYTHING. Only thing I have left is my 1988 Michaelangelo figure that my dad bought me. and I didn't even ask for it. He came back from work one day and he greeted me by handing it to me. It's still in near mint condition...Oh , and I still got a mini-mutant Donatello from the Bodacious Battlesets playset. I had All of them: Leo's City Wars, Donny's Sewer Wars, Mikey's Pizza Wars and Shredder's Dimension X Wars. You could interconnect them and the result would be one HELL of a city. They also sold mini vehicles to go with the playsets. I bought a Mini Technodrome, a Mini Turtle Van, mini Turtle Blimp and a mini Cheapskate.I had a CRAPLOAD of fun with this mini playset until I sold the thing... :(

regrets
 
Hmmmm....I made a quick transition from Turtles to Legos in almost no time at all it seemed. I quickly sold all my Turtles and vehicles and they went pretty fast thanks to an ad in the paper. The one thing I miss the most is the Technodtome...I didn't have it very long before I sold everything. I can't say I really miss all of the my old TMNT stuff, because it was a major load of stuff that I probably would never get around to playing with. But the Technodrome I would want back...oh yeah. :D

I kept my Samurai Leo though because my sis got him for me for a b-day...he kinda holds a special place with me because she was a five year old girl at the time and spent $5 of her money to get me it. Kinda sweet eh? :wink:

Thanks everyone, great stories (if somewhat sad :cry: ) I'm glad you kept your Samurai Leo, raphael90. :)

I tore the heads off a lot of the figures when I was a kid. I was able to fix some of them not too long ago though. Also I got that bad ass TMNT hockey game for Christmas one year, I never really played with it so it stayed intact for years. But when I got older I pretty much destroyed the thing. They must be rare too, because I have only seen one on ebay in three years of searching for another to replace the one I broke.

Aaron 11-26-2003 02:18 PM

Probably my Mutant Module. I loved that thing as a kid. I still haven't got a new one.

Kid Icarus 11-26-2003 03:13 PM

I regret letting my mom get rid of all my old toys. I had a Technodrome Mint, the entire mutatin' line, all 4 1988 TMNT... :cry: . stupid parents.

I regret throwing them at ppl when they would piss me off...
