Blue and White Plastic Blocks: I have older set of building 'blocks' that I'm trying to find the name of. They consist of blue plastic sticks (X shaped in cross section) of two lengths ~2" & 1" with plastic white connectors (six blue blocks could connect at a corner in cube fashion). They also had wheels (wheels attached to a white connector) and swivels (two white connectors attached together with a pin running through) and cover plates (~2"x2", red and yellow) that could snap inside a square of the larger sized blue blocks. I don't have a picture at present, but I have the blocks at my parents house so could probably get one. I'm not sure how far they date back.

board game: I recently found a wooden labyrinth board game. This is not the typical Labyrinth everyone sees- this game has raised walls, with multiple 1/2" 'walls' screwed onto the board that can be moved to create different paths.

I assume it was meant to have matching marbles- however, I only found the gameboard. ANY information would be greatly appreciated!

Doll/stuffed animal: I am looking for some information about a doll/stuffed animal.

Dollhouse pattern 1960 - 1961: I was given a dollhouse as a child built using a pattern found in a magazine from about 1960-1961. It is an a-frame and was originally shown in the magazine made out of cardboard. Mine is made out of wood. The artical also had patterns for making an upholstered sofa and wing-back chair. I still love my dollhouse but over the years that magazine has been lost. I believe the magazine was Woman's Day or Family Circle.

electronic toy trucks: I remember seeing a commercial about a toy truck, I think it might have been from Tonka, that was programmable. It was a dump truck, with an electronic keypad on the top.

I've been looking for this item on the web, but without further information, I don't really even know who made it or what it was called. But I do know that at one time it was out there. If there is any way that you can help me, it would be appreciated. I don't know where else to look. Thank you.; Reply

entertainment toy with facial expressions.: In 1982, i was five years old. i don't know the toy production or release dates,but i had a toy i really loved! It was a plastic yellow triangle shaped sealed box. It had built in poles with hooked ends that look like bobbins. You snapped on a removable special thin peg board. You then took laminated paper cardboard sheets with faces on them, and snapped them on the peg board. You then took plastic pieces, that were face parts like you would use on mr. potato head. You took those face parts and snapped them on the pegs. When you were finished, you turned a crank on theside, and the parts of the faces would spin around! There were plastic gears that went on the pegs, behind the face! The toy, had some silly name like: Crank a face, silly faces. I would like to know what the name of the toy was, and what toy company made it, and if you know of some place i could contact to buy one! I need to know the price too! Can you please help me?!!! I would be forever thankful and in your debt! Thank You! Matt; Reply

Gold jointed teddy bears - Classroom Set: I was given a set of little 3" teddy bears in a classroom set. Classroom meaning there is a one-piece desk/bench set that has three rows for the "student" teddy bears to sit at. There is also a larger "teacher bear" about 5-6" tall. Each student bear has either a pink (6) or blue (3) ribbon around their neck. A total of 9 little bears and a teacher bear. There is also a chalkboard on a tripod stand and little black slate boards for each student. 5 of the small bears have a "made in japan" label on the bottom of one of their feet, as does the teacher bear. There is also a desk and chair for the teacher. I would like to know if anyone knows anything about this set. I received it from a friend who mentioned she played with it in the 60's but know nothing else as she is now deceased. I am wondering about its potential value and anything else I might learn about it. I saw a similar set on e-bay about two years ago, but it only had the teacher and seven student bears.

Hand tilt flip flop craft toy: I have absolutely no way to figure out what it's officially called, but here goes. Visualize four playing card sized wooden panels, about 1/2" thick or less. Now, picture them laid end to end. Now imagine fabric straps interlocking each of the panels, so that when held in the air by the top panel, they will flip flop end to end when the top panel is tilted. It's mesmerizing to watch, and I would love to build one of these toys. For the life of me, I can't figure out what name they go by, but they're pretty easy to build. Got any idea of what I'm talking about? You hold the top panel (with the other 3 or 4 hanging beneath it by the fabric bands (like ribbon). When you tilt the top panel, all the other ones below it start flip-flopping. I LOVED playing with those as a child. Many thanks for your help...Randy.; Reply

Hot Strings?: In the early 90's, my sister used to play with these things. They were multi-colored, neon-colored mesh things that sort of looked and were in the shape of hair ties. They came in different sizes too. You could wrap them around your fingers and keep string more together off your hand and make little mesh sashes that you could use for bracelets or whatever you wanted. It seemed like the word "Hot" was in the name of them. I asked my sister about it and she doesn't remember them. Can you help?; Reply
I can't find even mention of this toy anywhere!: It is a motorcycle some were trikes modeled after real motorcycles & motor -"trikes" as they were called in 1975-78 when these were sold for children 5-14 years old. What was unique about these toys is that they had very intricate detail, electric motors that propelled them quickly accross flat surfaces. They were 3-5" inches long with well made rubber wheels. What distinguished this most from other toys was the large dark orange colored battery charge pack that acted as a receptacle for two D or C batteries. The battery pack had a wire the could plug into the back of the motorcycle. When an indicator informed that the toy was fully charged (usually in a few minutes) the plug was pulled and the toy motorcycle switched on, then sat down to race across the floor. Please, tell me something is known about this rare toy that I think was made by TYCO.; Reply

Inflatable Clown Boxing plastic/balloon toy: Is this toy still made? As a child in the mid 1970's I had one of these toys.

Late 80s - Early 90's Car toy. Like slot cars but no remote, no slot, walled track.: They are kind of like Radio Shack XMODS but they weren't RC. You could customize the motor, wheels, tires.

Metal Toys - - Barnyard: I have come across a metal barnyard playset. Each person, animal, foliage, equipment is painted. I'm sure it's not made out of cast iron because each piece is not heavy enough and too light for tin. The set includes part of a fence(maybe barn opening?)made of some type of particle board. Set includes: rabbits, geese, peacock, quail, chickens, horses, cow, pig, dogs, pigs, sheep, goats, water trough, trees, foliage, fence pieces, woman holding chicken feed, milk maid (or egg gatherer, looks to be from Holland because of white hat) and old gentleman. Foliage, fences, people, and several animals are on metal bases, while the other animals stand on their own.; Reply

Preschool toy from the early 70's: I've been trying to track down the name of the toy and the company who made this preschool toy. It was a series of houses that could be connected via a turning wheel in the base. Wen you turned the wheel, it would activate a feature that would move the characters placed in the holes in the floor (i.e a mother cat rockinga kitten in her arms...). The figures were all animals like beavers, rabbits, cats and dogs. All were molded with limited articulation but with a small metal peg in the base of their "feet" that when pressed or inserted in the hole of the house or accessory would make them move (rock, wave their arms or turn their heads). If you can identify this I'd be very greatful. Thanks in advance,Jason.; Reply

I'm pretty sure that the "face" was the only fuzzy part and that the cape created the "body". It had 2 bulb eyes (like the little bulbs you'd put in a light bright toy) that would light up/blink when you walked past it or when you turned off the lights. It would also make a noise, rapid beeping. I don't remember it having any other facial features, just the light-bulb eyes. It feels like it may have been from Star Wars but I'm not positive.; Reply
Stuffed toy rabbit with removeable bunny slippers, zipper in the back, and silky ears.: I am looking for a toy rabbit I got between 1990 and 1992 from my grandmother.

TEDDY BEAR - MADE PRIOR TO 1950: I am searching for information on a teddy bear that I had as a child. The bear was purchased for my mother at a yard sale when she was a child and she was born in 1949. At the time she got it, some of the "hair" was already wearing off making us think it had already been around for a while. The description of the bear is 12" or less in length, white or off-white wooly coat with black ears and paws. The bear was rather thin and was stuffed less at arms and legs for a lot of mobility. I believe the eyes were not originally inset, as numerous sets of buttons over the years were sewn on to replace his eyes. The most distinguishable feature was his rather large protruding nose which was white with black accents that I believe was made of some type of rubber. My remembrance is that he had no tag. This was my favorite childhood bear, the only one in fact, and I had it from a very young age until my early 20's when he was lost during a move. I would love to know what type of bear he was so that maybe I could find another one like him or perhaps have a replica made. I am over 40 now and my lifelong unanswered question is what happened to him or if I could ever have another to give to my daughter who is now 4. I would very much appreciate any information I could get about this bear!; Reply
