Question... What was your FAVORITE Christmas Gift of ALL TIME?!

[riffjim4069]

Wow. The first one that came to my mind was when I got a Vertibird. I was probably 10 years old. I wanted it so bad and was so happy when I actually got one!

I got one for my birthday so I couldn't count that one. Same thing for the Hot Wheels w/figure 8 track.

Mine was a Christmas gift from my grandmother... I went with her to a rummage sale and found something I wanted for a quarter...

She said she would wrap it and give it to me for Christmas. And she did.

It was a Radio Shack 1 in 100 Electronic Project Kit. Man I loved that thing!

I got one too...had a blast with it, but just not as much fun as with Linux and Scouba Scout. Another memorable one (I don't recall the name) is some kind of goo we used to back in a some kind of over and it turned into a various monsters.

I think I was 5 when I got Rock em Sock em robots,a Lionel toy train,and a huge Winnebago.Not sure if it was Tonka or not,but it was all metal on the outside.That was an awesome Christmas.

Santa made a mistake! That stuff was meant for me...Lil Teehar was never that good.

When I was 6 my father was in the Air Force and he had a 1 year TDY to Thule Greenland (unaccompanied of course). For Christmas his CO sent him home to arrive Christmas Eve.

He also brought home a small refracting telescope that I used off and on for years.

Best Christmas ever!

Gotta love that familiar old pine wood paneling from years gone by.
