I'm not sure how much our votes will count, but never underestimate the power of shared mental energy! Of the 12 finalists, one "toy" is CLEARLY in a league of its own. So, without further ado, here they are (reprinted without permission):
  • Bubble Wrap*
  • Care Bears
  • Clue
  • Coloring Book
  • Dungeons & Dragons!
  • Fisher-Price Little People
  • Nerf
  • Pinball
  • Rock 'Em Sock 'Em Robots
  • Swing
  • Transformers
  • Uno
*And no, that's, sadly, neither a joke nor typo.

This is a little late, but WOO-HOO, D&D is officially one of the three inductees into the 2016 Toy Hall of Fame!

PS: I don't know if they're on the list already, but my personal nominees for 2017 will be matches, scissors, and a loaded gun! :shock:

Well, anyone who is a parent needs to make their children come and read Dreamweaver's post. Explain this is the reason they are not allowed to hang out with me. We've been friends for a long time, and we certainly cried tears of blood while co-designing Nordock 2. This is how you end up, talking crazy like that. Matches, scissors and a loaded gun. blowtorch, machete and twitchy trigger shotgun, you newfie!
