    I've run children's day camps and easily had 50 of these. Trust me, after the kids go home for the day, even old farts like me and most of the other counselors STILL loved them.

    I really enjoyed taking several castles worth of pieces and making my own huge castles.

    My brother and I had like 50 of these pieces. We made huge cities and played things like gang wars, police and robbers, etc. Some places were designated bases and such.

    Later I filmed my pet croc running across a micromachine city and used it in a school project as a monster attacking the city. RIP Draco.

    Also, I was a huge fan of Pokemon. What alot of people don't know is the Gameboy game came before the trading cards. I dabbled in the cards a little, but got rid of them. Needless to say I still have Pokemon Red and Blue for the gameboy :)

    Pssssssh I've never liked MJ. So if those toys existed when I was a kid, I wouldn't have wanted them anyways :p

    I still have a trunkload of my old legos.

    I liked sea monkeys, but magic rocks were a little more interesting to me.
