mobb_deep 917 Posted July 21, 2017 There was a house down the street that had a big bamboo plant (tree?). We used to make staffs, spears and nunchucks and have huge battles with all the neighborhood kids. Some kids would be on bikes or skateboards or whatever. Got my front tooth knocked out in one battle. Good times. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

fandandy 3,311 Posted July 21, 2017 Not a toy, but sparklers. They were bigger when I was a kid and seemed to burn forever and we would just run with one in each hand. I never let my daughter play with those. So dangerous. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Djgb13 2,338 Posted July 21, 2017 Speaking of fireworks, we used to play with those all the time. They are legal in SC year round so we would go get the rockets, cherry bombs, Roman candles, smoke grenades, and mortars. Then once we got back we would form teams and have firework wars. Each team got a side and threw/shot the fireworks at the other. Used the mortars as grenades by throwing them and having them explode or put them in th tube and shoot them at the other side like a cannon. Same with the rockets. Set the field behind my house on fire twice, the small patch of trees in front of my house once, and the woods that had a clay pit where we road our bikes, dirt bikes, and 4 wheelers at on fire to where the fire department would have to come to put it out. SO surprised we never got hurt. Most that has happened were small superficial burns. Good times 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Djgb13 2,338 Posted July 21, 2017 That's awesome. Looking back there's no way in hell my parents would buy me those again. I sure as hell won't buy my kids those. I mean I was literally 8-13 getting these having those wars with my friends. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

cyclone24 1,814 Posted July 21, 2017 Greatest toy i ever had. Football launcher. But the old ones were good sized and were essentially a water balloon launcher, plastic rod down the middle, hard plastic football with holes on each end for the ball to slide down rod. Â Problem was it launched footballs 30 yards starting at face level. Â Pretty good idea why they stopped selling them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

fandandy 3,311 Posted July 22, 2017 Was melting crayons on a lightbulb dangerous or toxic? My buddy had a Matchbox car maker. It came with the wheels and molds and this plug in metal smelter that you melted the wax in. So much fun but not something I would want my kids playing with alone on the shag carpet in their room.

IGotWorms 3,315 Posted July 22, 2017 Can't really remember any particularly dangerous toys, although there must've been some. Â Mostly it's that me and my friends would disappear into the woods or around the neighborhood for the entire day. And this was in Alaska where it's light til like 1 am. We probably weren't out quite that late but it must've been at least 9 or 10 sometimes Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ROCKFORD 134 Posted July 22, 2017 bottle rocket wars, i had a friends who spent the night in jail, but i got away. Â most of my friends dads had unlocked 'gun rooms' and loaded their own cartrages. Â so, we had access to raw gun powder to make bombs with. Â i remember pulling the head off a gi joe and packing it full. Â we got a nice explosion but the head remained in tact. Â i looked like he had been in a war or something. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
