OK - you've all opened up a can of worms...! (then when your back is turned, all those worms climb on up on top of each other & form one big worm! And kill you with it's worm-like voracity...)
Sorry - a little David Cross joke there...

Sabu - The Wheelo! Holy crap - I haven't seen that in years...

Winnie-the-Pooh "Weebles" Treehouse... That damn tree always got stuck...

Also had the Fisher Price "Little People" Sesame Street playset...

My brother had Stretch Armstrong - eventually we got bored with him, and cut him open. Bright red jelly oozed out, which turned rock hard the next day.

We ALL had these on our bikes (along with the obligatory playing cards in the spokes) - made a great obnoxious motorcycle sound...

But the toy I wanted worst of all, was the Evil Knievel "Skull Canyon" Playset, to go along with my Stunt Cycle. I was given enough money from a relative to buy it for my birthday. But once we got to JC Penney, I was talked out of it by my parents (because the skulls were - you guessed it, satanic), and forced to instead buy...

this.

Damn.
