What are some expensive toys you wanted but never got as a kid.

As a kid I really wanted a 3DO console. I recall playing on the 3DO arcade and my mind was blown by the graphics. I had an 8 bit NES and the 3DO was 24 bit. I remember it was around $600 so about twice what we paid in rent at the time. I was scared of bringing it up to mom and dad because I would've gotten a sound scolding. Of course, they eventually went out of business.

Growing up I wanted one of those electric scooters.
Now that I’m older I hate electric scooters.

We got very little, usually clothes. Parents simply couldn’t afford anything not considered a necessity. They did the very best they could.
So I made myself a promise if I ever had kids they would never ask for something at Christmas and not get it.
I wanted a new bike every year. Finally got one around 7th grade after older brother finished high school and chipped in to help. I think a new bike then at Western Auto was lik $19.

Being poor, backwoods rednecks, we never got a lot for Christmas. But the one toy I asked for every year as a kid and never got was Rock’em Sock’em Robots. Santa never had enough and there were “poor” kids that needed them more.
