Biggest Toy Trends

[tennisplayer1981]

So I was looking through my basement and found so many things that used to be very popular during the mid-late 90s.

Pokemon cards, yo-yos, Beanie Babies, and LEGOs are some of the things I found. What were some of the toy trends that you followed growing up?

i definitely got into the pokemon and yo-yo craze. i remember my bumblebee yo yo. that thing was sweet (i think i spent my life savings on it at the time... haha!). i also collected stickers, though that wasn't really a trend.

I was gonna put that down but I forgot the name of it lol

As for yo-yos, they were banned from my elementary school because they were afraid students would do around-the-worlds, when in fact we were only walking-the-dog.

My friend has a video of us singing that song when we were young and has threatened to put it up on YT.
