I had this toy dog that you squeezed it's collar and it drank water out of a plastic bowl. The water would get sucked through it's tongue. And then you would place the dog on tiny newspapers where a small plastic 'peg' pushed a little hole (I'm serious) that was underneath the dog and the dog peed the water out on the paper!!! CAN YOU BELIEVE THAT??? Can you believe my parents bought this for me??...or maybe I got it as a gift, don't remember. How crazy is that??? What kind of sick toy is that...a peeing dog toy!!! And someone please tell me WHY I would want this toy...Remember the big Sears Robuck Wish Book catelogs??? I bet this is where I saw it....

mckayleesmom replied: omg...my dad bougth me this doll called Patty Playpal...She came dressed as a little school girl and had a lunch box (the lunch box was a tape recorder that hooked up to her to get her to talk........I loved her.....until I saw the first Childs Play movie ......then I chpped off her hair and buried her in the closet till I could throw her away. See, I couldn't throw her away for a while because my dad might notice her missing (he was so proud of that gift)...soooo while she waited in my closet...I just had to pray that she didn't jump out and kill me.

MM'sMama replied: I remember Popples and Strawberry Shortcake (I still have them somewhere ). I also remember Wonder Women and Magic Nursery Babies when they first came out. My brother ripped of my first Wonder Womens head I was so ticked . OH and Rainbow Bright I loved that doll I use to cart her all over the place. And these little dolls calls Quint's, they had nursery and baby things made for 5 (Quint's, Quint's 5 times the fun I love taking care of each and everyone). OMG I can't believe I still remember that commercial . Anyone else remember My Pet Monster?

Jamison'smama replied: I had a radio that was hidden inside of a stuffed dog--one freaky looking long white haired dog that you could comb the hair on.

I also had a Planet of the Apes Doll (okay, does that age me?)

I always hated those jack in the boxes..... They scared me! Still hate them. I always loved my littel ponys and barbies. And had a baby skates doll.
