[@V2ULTRAKill]

Me when i buy lego sets i wanted as a kid

[@jaketheripper7385]

I'm 33 and I'm the same way... I had a couple Street Sharks when I was a kid. I really liked how they made the bodies out of that soft rubber material while the limbs and accessories were all rigid ABS plastic. My absolute favorite was the "Jet Pack Jab Hammerhead" figure. He was so cool! In fact, I'm pretty sure I still have it around here somewhere... Just the figure though unfortunately since all of the accessories and such are long gone. I can recall tearing apart the jetpack at one point because I really liked the way the wings looked. I thought they looked kinda like blades and I wanted to make like a folding throwing knife/glaive type thingy with them, so I took it all apart and cannibalized the wings. Looking back it was kinda silly and I wish I would have left it as it was. Some other cool toys I can recall from that period were some of the figures from "Mummies Alive!" (kind of a dumb show, but a few of the toys were pretty cool). There were some other ones too that I just thought of before that I'm completely forgetting about now. Dammit. It's like right there just out of reach! Eh, whatever. Anyhow I also got back into yo-yos myself on and off over the years throughout my adult life. I picked it up again around 2 ½ to 3 years ago and have continued throwing since, and I've got a pretty decent sized collection now. I have all of the same models that I owned and/or liked when I was a kid plus a bunch of others that I've picked up here and there. Out of all of the models and play styles, my favorites are still the old-school flared/"Saber Wing" ball-bearing responsive throws that were all the rage when we were kids, you know like Yomega and Hyper YoYo? I still love the versatility of the "Saber Wing" style body shape and the feel of those old plastic responsive yoyos. Don't get me wrong, professional high-performance aluminum throws and bi-metal composite designs are really cool and can be really nice, but it's hard to beat some of the classics. There's just something about the nostalgia of throwing those old plastic Duncans and Yomegas that's just good for my soul. I really love the old Playmaxx style cork brake pads too, there's just something about the way that those cork pads play that's really hard to beat. I especially like them in the Playmaxx "Profire", not the Duncan made/rebrand ones but the originals from Playmaxx (which are crazy expensive now actually, all of the Playmaxx stuff is pretty collectible these days). The whole bronze shuttle sleeve and transaxle concept used for the Profire was just a really cool and unique idea to me. I've been messing around with some designs of my own based on that concept that are a bit more refined and some even incorporate different types of bearings. Definitely over-engineered and unnecessary, but just a fun little project to work on and play with. I recently got my 14 - 15 year old second cousin into yoing here recently when he and his sister came to stay with us for a week for their annual visit. I wish I would have introduced him to it sooner, but I didn't really think of it until last year right after they left so I've been looking forward to showing him all year. At first I wasn't really sure he'd be into it, but I guess he ended up taking to it like a fat kid to cake. I showed him the basics one night and he was really bad it for the first couple hours, but I gave him a few different yoyos that I had doubles and triples of to get him started, plus some extra strings and some axle lube. The following evening you'd think he'd been throwing for a couple months! Apparently he went up to his room and practiced well into the wee hours of the morning and continued to do so throughout the following day. The kid was even getting a blister on his finger from the string! I guess he really likes it and wanted to start doing some tricks! I was just absolutely over the freakin' moon with excitement. I showed him some simple string tricks and some other basics (breakaway, around the world, single loops; you know the drill) and he was saying he hopes to be able to rival me when he comes back up next year. I told him to master all the basic tricks we discussed and I made him a list with a little practice regimen. I told him to learn 3 to 5 new tricks on his own to have down like second nature by the time he comes back to visit again. At any rate, it was just really awesome to be able to share the hobby with him and pass it on to the next generation like that. I don't have any children of my own and I'm an only child, so a I truly cherish any opportunity to share this type of stuff with the next generation; especially when it's something that brought me so much joy when I was young.

[@sonicrockz1011]

tragic backstory time: when i was taken from my parents a month from my 6th birthday on the day of my actual birthday i was given the raptor and was told it was from them. i was a little girl lol. even when no one was there to change the batteries i would treat it like my baby dolls etc. i didnt even care about the sensors or AI lol. the remote got lost fast. watching this made me kinda emotional aaaa

0:12 wanna know furbies are so creepy? imagine a herbivore, they have many defense mechanisms against predators, one of them being their eyes are on the side of their face so they have a wider field of vision, but predators need to focus their vision on one target, solution? have eyes on the front of your face, and furbies have eyes on the front of thier face, furbies hunt for food, what do they hunt? and that was when i burned all of mine.

[@kylefreeburg9353]

That's not entirely true. Any animal that needs to use depth perception needs front eyes. Take the antelope for example. They aren't quite as forward as say a dogs, but their eyes are fairly forward facing. The eyes on a furby merely show it lives in a very flat place against fast moving targets, either predator or prey

[@XalconKugelBlitz]

@@kylefreeburg9353 thx for knowledge.

[@marshallgaming4422]

sorry to revive a dead thread but when I look at a furby the face seems more avian. Specifically like a penguin due to the face in conjunction with body shape. However due to the shape of its beak we can infer that it eats seeds not fish. To be precise it would eat grains. If I were to hypothesize a potential evolutionary journey that led to the furby it would have to be a species that evolved in an extremely isolated habitat. Within this habitat a prominent species of plant had large but not hard seeds which the furby was highly specialized to eat. Given that a furby has fur it most likely wasn’t a flightless bird but rather the formation of the beak was an example of convergent evolution. Fur is a defining trait of mammals, having fur and a beak is only present in monotremes. However, it is difficult to say wether the furby is a monotreme or something else entirely. Then through the process of domestication the furby acquired softer and more superfluous fur, larger eyes, shorter beak, and stunted body size.

This unlocked a bunch of wonderful memories. My Roboraptor had a split personality. When I’m playing alone, he was a monster that knocked over my train sets, ate my army men, and destroyed Lego buildings. It was amazing. When I was playing with my sister, he was lost and scared, and Barbie’s new pet. Also amazing.

[@pumpkinnecromancer2490]

The roboquad looking at him when he stopped it from falling off the table all like “hey what gives!?” was kinda adorable I’m not gonna lie. It reminds me of a pet WALL-E. it’s just inexplicably cute. 10:00 “Whoa hey what gives! Huh? Wait whats going on!? SCANNING... wait are you filming!?
