I OBJECT, MAY! The Family Treehouse is not a glorified handbag! I never carried mine anywhere. It lived in the garage with a lot of my other toys (not as grim as it sounds - even as a kid I spent more time in the garage than in the house). I lost all of the little people, the furniture and the swing. That was OK, though, because I wasn't interested in any of that. I was more interested in how the lift mechanism and the push-down catch on the top worked ;D But it was worth seeing that one destroyed for the look on his face afterwards

I'm afraid I must join the "I was the owner of a tree house" club. I much preferred the Sunshine Family though

Oh yes, now we're talking! Weebles wobble but they don't fall down! I was so strongly influenced by my Weebles, I have grown up to look like one ;D And OMG, look what I just found on eBay!

You could buy it as a present for James. At least it isn't Spam or American Hardgums.

Sadly, my habit of collecting toys, even to this day, has instilled a great love of items that still have their original packaging....think of James at the auction where he bought that toy train, and then go to the opposite end of the scale. I am a packaging FREAK. I nearly cried when I saw him throwing the boxes in the bin.

I really like his sister! She was so happy when she saw that treehouse again! And James wasn't very nice blowing it up but he looked good when doing it!

I wondered whether the one he blew up was the one his sister looked at or whether there were two and she got to keep it.

She came across as so likeable didnt she!!! I never had the treehouse- it came out a bit before I was born. But I did have the yellow t pot house! You got in by sliding down the spout!

Awwwwwwwwww, I want one now! If I was presented with the toy garage I used to play with I would still play with it. I used to love whizzing the cars down the ramp and helping them to park. It's seems really strange, but when I was little I used to play with cars and my cousin, who is a boy, will happily sit and play with a doll. It's like when you are young you play with the opposite toys. Well, I used to have about a million Barbie dolls. I can still remember what my first one was, it was ballerina Barbie. Awwwwwww, *Reminisces*

I had maybe one or two Barbies. My first one, I destroyed completely. I was a bit more mature and girly when I got my second one, because my two best friends had Barbies and Barbie houses. Truth be said, I liked the house more than the dolls. I loved rearranging the furniture.
I was more of a car collector by nature though. I had a bigger car collection than my brother who was more into action figures and his log cabin. I still loved my weeble wobble sets (I had the school house and boat) and sunshine family. Those were some fun moments in my childhood.

I threw my furby down the stairs once and it jammed saying "I love you..." So I hit it off the wall until it stopped!

WOW! That's alot. Well done, Daisy. My niece would go mental if she knew anyone had that many. She loves them.
EDIT - Oh! Speaking of My Little Pony, remember in the JMSTT show when James was in that toy store looking at the girl toys? The look on his face when he pushed the button on the singing My Little Pony was priceless. Oh, that was so funny. ;D

Alas, sadly Daisy, no one's put that part up on YouTube. I have it on tape, so the best thing I can do (Monday would be the best time), is take a picture of his big moment (LOL) and post it here. Sorry. Maybe if someone else is able to link it here through a different medium (puppy dog eyes), please a link to it if you can. Thank you.
