I know it's stupid, but I am making a conscious effort to remember how awesome it was to be 8 years old, and go out of my way to have more fun and be more childish.

I may look into some He-Man action figures later this week [Smile]

Edit: It's a black 1947 Chevy Fleetline with flames and red tinted windows, if anyone is interested.

I buy hotwheels all the time. But only volkswagens and mostly purple or pink ones.

My mom shoved the few cars that remained from my hotwheels colection into my keepsake box before handing it to me a year ago. The color changing ones still change color...kinda. And I think I still have the one with the little "Crash up" feature, where you could hit it on the side and a small chunk of the side would flip around and it looked like the hotwheel was in a back accident. Hotwheels ruled.

Do they have dream catchers and/or crystals hanging from the rearview mirror?

This one doesn't do anything fancy. I'm really itching for a toy to play with though. If I could find a car that smashed up on contact, or maybe an old "Battle Scar" He-Man, I think I could keep myself entertained for a good while this afternoon.

Hotwheels rock. I have a couple large scale model hotwheels cars that are great. Not much fun to play with but really cool anyway.

No, Stormy they don't. But the real one has a peace sign on it.

I may make it a dream catcher, but that would require a specific color of red yarn. (I regret the rest of this post)

I buy Hotwheels when ever I can. I try to get the actual they were cars ones. I plan on building a train set someday and want to put them with.

What scale train set are you doing? My brother had a full set in HO and one much smaller. I collect horses in 1/32nd so try to find other props in that size.
