September 29, 201511 yr American Girls, coloring books make Toy Hall of Fame's final cut Only 2 or 3 of these will be inducted this year...
September 29, 201511 yr Author Here is my Break down on each... Jenga- good time killing game. Good for all ages, overall great family game night game. Too new IMO to make the HoF this year. American Girl Doll- they've taken too much of my money, they don't get my vote also. Great marketing has turned this into an iconic toy for little girls. But again they are too recent on the scene to get my vote for HoF. Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles- they are just G.I. Joe and Super Hero knock offs. Playmobil- If I have to look a toy up to see what it is exactly, it aint getting in the HoF. Coloring Book- Honestly should already be in the HoF...I won't be mad they if they get the call this year. Battle Ship- There are hundreds of board games out there and not all can make the HoF nor do they deserve to...But BATTLE SHIP deserves to make it in. Twister- Just never as much fun as it "Should" be...IMO it's over rated. Now if they want to nominate Naked Twister we can revisit this discussion. Puppets- umm NO!!! Scooter- Maybe, but not this year. Top- OK it deserves to be in, but I'll wait and let the Veterans Committee put it in Whiffle Ball-It's over 60 years old, so it's stood the test of time. There is something magical about throwing a ball the curves like that. Any ball that can let you play "Baseball" 2 on 2 and get's you out of the house is great. Whiffle Ball gets my sentimental vote this year. Super Soaker- Great fun, took water guns to an entirely new level. Too new to get in the HoF yet...just wait Super Soaker you'll get in, you just have to wait a little while longer.
September 29, 201511 yr No guns are in HOF yet? A toy gun should be in it. How many kids played western in the days or cops?
September 29, 201511 yr Author No guns are in HOF yet? A toy gun should be in it. How many kids played western in the days or cops? True, Cap Guns should be in. The old Mattel M-16 is another gun that should be considered.
September 29, 201511 yr True, Cap Guns should be in. The old Mattel M-16 is another gun that should be considered. Can I say it? Can I say it? Can I say it? The Toy HOF committe must be Liberals. There I said it. hahahaha
September 29, 201511 yr Can I say it? Can I say it? Can I say it? The Toy HOF committe must be Liberals. There I said it. hahahaha Buncha tree-hugging pinkos. Probably all got beat up on the playground as kids.
September 29, 201511 yr Author Buncha tree-hugging pinkos. Probably all got beat up on the playground as kids. Well the Frisbee is already in the HoF
September 29, 201511 yr Battleship, whiffle ball, Twister (aka "sneak-a-feel") and coloring books would be my top 4.
