The Flagg would have been useless for me since i never had any of the joe planes. I did get the Mobile Command Center though which is one of my favorite Joe vehicles ever (though i used it as a base).

The really big ones... like the GI Joe air craft carrier and Fortress Maximus. Assuming too expensive and being huge are why my parent's didn't get them for me... You stole my answers. I can't complain though, I had most other Joe stuff and a decent Transformers collection. I actually don't blame them for not getting me the USS Flagg because I just saw it put together on Comic Book Men and there is no way in hell it would have even fit in my bedroom. And I didn't have the kind of parents that let us have toys all over, our toys went in our rooms or they got thrown away when my mom was cleaning. As the brother of a guy who got one, we put it on a plywood sheet and set it on our dad's covered pool table. If we wanted to play pool, had to move it ourselves. Just giving you an idea by size. (My brother got to where he'd take it apart before building it again. Must have been bored.)

someone brought that in one primary school end of term day and was enthralled by it I had that game as a kid. But had forgotten about it until I saw the video. The only toy I asked for and didn't get was the talking KITT 2000 car. For some reason right before X-mas the year it came out it was recalled. My mother went to every toy store from Mobile Alabama to New Orleans. So since she couldn't find one I got this Hot Wheels like Kitt 2000. You pulled it back and it would race forward. But I did have the USS Flagg,Omega Supreme and pretty much all of the Kenner Star Wars vehicles. Part of that was until I was 7 I was the only grandchild on one side of the family and the youngest on the other. So both sides kind of spoiled me.

I was a spoiled little shit, I got everything I wanted for Ghostbusters, GI Joe, Turtles, Transformers, Dino Riders, Power Rangers and of course Hasbro Wrestlers.
The only things that come to mind I didnt get was a Power Wheels ( not that I really wanted one, it was just my mother was so against the idea that it made it seem like I wanted one. )
AND
Starting Lineups Growing up in the Bay Area I could never get the Phillies or the Eagles. Shit, I couldnt even get the A's or the 49ers. One of the most exciting presents I opened up was a wrapped package of 2 figures. I saw the SLU logo and was squealing, until I saw it was Raiders Greg Townsend and Washington's Dexter Manley. I did not want them at all but even at 6 yrs old I knew my mom probably looked really hard for SLU's and wanted me to have some rather than none, so I instantly told my parents they were perfect to not hurt her feelings.

The Harry Potter Nimbus 2000 electronic broomstick.
I was trying to get something in my mother's closet and I saw one in there, so I knew they had it as a gag gift for me. So, I mentioned I accidentally saw the gift, and my mom got flustered like she had been trying to hide it- but I never really saw many gifts I was given. The next time I was going through, the broom was gone- I presume returned or donated away.

Soundwave. I always wanted him but for some reason or another I never got him.
Gotta be honest, I have considered paying the $300 for a masterpiece Soundwave.

A lot of the bigger G.I. Joe vehicles like the space shuttle and the Cobra Bugg. The He-Man and Skeletor figures with the battle damage chests. Battle Cat. Castle Grayskull. The Silverhawks space ship. The MASK motorcycle/helicopter and sports car/jet. But I did get all the Transformers I wanted except Megatron, Ravage, and Springer, so I can't really complain.

An Eliminator TS-7. It was this light-up gun/sword combo that could be assembled into different weapons.
Eventually I did get one- with my own money, at a Goodwill like five years ago.

Exactly what I came in to say. Well, Voltron 2 to be exact. I remember wanting one and always pointing to it when we were in the store(Thrifty's I think). Eventually my dad did buy one. I was happy up until I noticed he started to gift wrap it. He then dropped it off at a house for a birthday party for one of his friend's kid. I still hate that kid.

I had a very mismatched Transformers collection, so they never matched up to their on-screen counterparts.
For example, I had Metroplex and Scorponok, but not Fortress Maximus or Trypticon. I also had Cyclonus and Scourge, but Megatron and not Galvatron.
I also never had a full set of factions. I had four Dinobots, three Constructicons, three Aerialbots, and four Terrorcons.
