I remember building blocks (about the size of 2 x 4s).
My James Bond Goldfinger car
Ping pong shooter
Red Rocket sled
All of these are around 1964-1966

I wish big wheels had been invented. They just look like alot of fun

So most of us wanted a tool or something out there and just put off buying it, wouldn't this be a nice time to ask Santa for it?
I bet anything it would mean more to you than anything if you got it.

Hey I had one of those
It was a hook and ladder, we used to ride it down the driveway (that was back when they REALLY built toys)
I also had a car carrier. Should be around the same time, 1964

Thank You 78Explorer
I forgot about them
