We asked members of the BuzzFeed Community to tell us which toy they never got as a kid and still regret not getting to this day. Here are some of those toys:
1. Easy-Bake Oven
"An Easy-Bake Oven! I wanted one so badly and my mother would never let me have one because she said they were dangerous. I think she just didn't want me making a huge mess, but here I am, almost 40, and I still wonder if I missed out on becoming some sort of baking genius." —hurricanedeck
2. Nintendo 64
3. Barbie Dreamhouse
"When I was 7 years old, I desperately wanted the original Barbie Dreamhouse. One day when my dad arrived home from work, he told me that he'd bought me said Dreamhouse! He went on about how it was in the trunk of his car, solidifying in my 7-year-old mind that, yes, he'd actually bought it for me. And then...AND THEN...he said 'APRIL FOOLS.' Needless to say, I cried. He bought me a Mermaid Barbie to make up for it, but it never really filled the void. Dad, what cruel impulse made you want to trick a 7-year-old into thinking you'd bought her a Barbie Dreamhouse?!" —maddieh4dacddb1e
4. My Buddy
5. Rose Petal Place Dolls
6. My Size Barbie
"A My Size Barbie doll! I actually mentioned this to my mum last week and she told me she never got it for me 'cause she knew I just wanted the dress that came with it. Betrayal!!!" —Carly Holloway
7. Socker Boppers
8. Skip-It
9. Toy Ice Cream Maker
10. Sailor Moon's Crescent Moon Wand
"It was Sailor Moon's Moon Stick (or the Crescent Moon Wand) replica. I was (and still am) a huge fan, and I was blown away when I found it in a department store when I was 5 years old. My parents didn't allow me to get it and scolded me when I cried, so now whenever I see it I still get the double heartbreak."—astarlightinthegloom
11. Teddy Ruxpin
12. Hot Wheels Race Track
13. The Death Star Play Set
14. Moon Shoes
15. Lite-Brite
16. Game Boy Advance
17. American Girl Doll
18. Barbie Power Wheels Jeep
"When I was 2 years old, I really wanted a Barbie Jeep. My dad promised he'll get one for my sister and I for Hanukkah. He got us another sister instead. I love my little sister, but I still wish I could have also gotten a Barbie Jeep. I continued to want a Barbie Jeep until I was 8. I never got it." —skylare408bf0a07
19. A Plush Ewok
"When I was 4 years old the big movie was Return of the Jedi. I wanted a plush Ewok so bad for Christmas, but Santa didn't bring it. I had told my husband that the Ewok was the one toy I remember wanting and never getting. This past Christmas he got me a Ewok, in the original packaging!😊" —strangestangel79
