Legos without all the fancy crap.

Erector sets that are not molded plastic, but rather generic steel parts.

BB guns that are priced reasonably AND are reasonably accurate.

Oldschool Station Wagons. I'll take an oldschool full-sized station wagon over a truck, SUV, minivan, or a crossover any day. I think this is one of the reasons Detroit is doing so poorly: They've taken them out of the market to try and get people to buy bigger, more expensive rides. The only wagons you see are the small ones aimed at people that don't have or aren't willing to spend $35,000 on a truck. The old Malibu Classic wagon could tow almost two tons, survive a hellatious
crash, and they didn't flip or roll like trucks often do. They seated more people than most trucks more comfortably, and you could fit quite a bit in them, and it wasn't out in the rain, and did (and would) get better mileage than a truck.

SST toy cars, those cars you put the zip thing in and pull it out real fast to get the wheels spinning. They even had them in versions that the wheels and fenders, hood, etc came off when they crashed.

Sitcoms that actually take place in a variety of situations, as opposed to several interchangeable shows about a group of quirky people going about their business.

TV shows with self-contained episodes that can be watched in any order. I love a good story arc as much as the next person, but I also like shows I can casually watch, that still make sense if I miss an episode. Maybe the story arcs keep people watching, but they also keep people away. There are very few new shows that excite me right away. It might take awhile for word to get back to me that I might actually like something. By the time I found out Lost was a good show, near the end of the first season, it was too late. I had to watch the first season on DVD while the second season was airing, then watch the second season on DVD, then finally start watching the third season as it aired. Smallville was around for five years before I took an interest in it. And I've decided I just don't have time to catch up on the new Battlestar Galactica, having only watched the pilot. The only good thing is that when I'm looking for something new to watch, I can see whole seasons at my leisure, rather than a week at a time. Watching new episodes of Lost was an adjustment, I can tell you.

Nowadays, I won't even check out a new show, because I've decided I can only follow a handful without it becoming more of a burden than a pleasure. A new show comes along with a story arc, I'm not fitting it in. Bring back shows with stand-alone episodes.

Movie and music (remeber KISS?) orientated bubble gum cards.

Monster movie ones  were the best!

Station wagons seem to be making a comeback. Not the enormous Malibu Classic-style ones, necessarily, and they aren't calling them station wagons, but I've noticed several new models coming out. The Subaru Forrester is, and has always been, a station wagon, even if they insist on calling it an SUV. I've seen others as well, though no model names are coming immediately to mind.

I totally agree on the erector sets. And somewhere, I think I still have several SST cars, including the demolition derby models. Cool stuff.  Thumbup

Bring back good, goofball, offbeat shows like Gilligan's Island, The Adventures of Pete and Pete, Parker Lewis Can't Lose, Square Pegs, etc. -- shows that celebrate weirdness. Not that I watch TV anymore, anyway, but I miss good stuff like this.
