Your 3 more memorable Christmas presents as a kid?

What were the three presents that you will never forget as a kid. For some of us, that was a long time ago
1 - Hot Wheels Sizzlers Racetrack - Cars were charged and release to free ride. I played with this track for years and even bought my kids one a few years back.
2 - Cox PT-19 Trainer plane - Probably the best gift I ever got. Had the .049 engine. Learned a lot about how things work trying to figure this thing out
3 - U-Fly-IT Aircraft Carrier - This big styrofoam carrier was featured on Johnny Carson and everyone wanted one. My parents got one for me.... I still have the end of the box that it was packed in. Over 40 years.
What you got?

1) 
2) remote control helicopter
3) Walkie Talkie. My brother and I had an absolute blast with it. We'd hide and try to find each other on the golf course

I grew up not having Christmas so I tend to overdue it for my children. Seeing them happy is what it's about.

My dad came home from Vietnam on leave.
I still remember waking up, hearing his voice (I had no clue he was coming in). I thought "wow, I'm dreaming dad is home." He was.
At that time, no calls or email. You could only write. I found one of my letters - 19 pages long.

Original Nintendo
Haro bicycle (this was probably my most favorite. Made me a very popular kid in the mid 80s.
Tickets to my very first Red Sox vs Yankees game which also was my first time going to Fenway. Had it turned out to be the only time , it would be the best by far. Talked to Mike Greenwell, Wade Boggs , Dwight Evans , Ellis Burks , and OCB during BP and warm ups. Best day of my childhood for sure.
