Bro, you don't have to comment on the post if you don't like the topic. There is no point rubbishing someone's else post, okay

It is a free world. Move on to other threads. Live and let's live. Cheers.

Thanks, My Brother. I remember the Green Commandoes. They were plastic soldiers. I bought them too, but I had more of these Cowboy and Indian Soldiers toys. I was always buying them. Do you think children nowadays will be fascinated with the Cowboy and Indian soldier toys? What do you think? I don't want to believe our kids are only interested in Computer games.

pacino26:


Those days we had what I term "creative imagination/visualization". We made things up, plan, fought and won battles in our head. It was all fun. I think they may get fascinated with these types of we choose to play with them. I think the parents of today see the PC/Phone games as easy escape from the too energetic kids.

Got some boys coming up. The last set of toys didn't make it into the second week. Tyres and occupants all gone, I de wait for those NL auto dealers that buys scrap cars to make me an offer.

How’s that my concern? If you can brag about a thread, what would Seun the owner do? Please, today is Sunday.

I played with these Cowboys and Indian Toys when I was in Primary School in the 80's. I used to buy them for 30 kobo to 50 kobo per piece

WAIT, DID PEOPLE BUY THEM? I NEVER THOUGHT THEY WERE SOLD. I THOUGHT THEY WERE PICKED FROM THE FLOOR.
I GOT MINE FROM PLAYING WITH FRIENDS, DISAPPEARING WITH THEIRS AND CLAIMING OWNERSHIP THE NEXT DAY. SOMETIMES I TOOK THEM HOME FROM SCHOOL AND NEVER RETURNED WITH THEM. I HAD LOTS OF THEM I NEVER PAID FOR.

Mine were the little green soldiers which I played with in the early 2000s. Apart from green there could be any other colour for the soldier.

Tozara:
I remember these. Primary school days.

When I remember when man was still tiny.

How much boy has grown. How large the mind has become.

I played with these Cowboys and Indian Toys when I was in Primary School in the 80's. I used to buy them for 30 kobo to 50 kobo per piece then from those women that sold household goods in their Shops . I had loads of them and I played with them by placing them on a table on our verandah and banging on the table softly to make them move. I considered the ones that fell down dead in the heat of battle. Did you play with these Cowboy and Indian warriors and soldiers toys too? What are your memories about them ?

I am just having memories of my childhood.

You mean these things were around in the 80's! Wow.

I played with MILLIONS () of them in the early 2000's. We used to compete over whom had the largest collection of them. So, the richer, the better.

I wasted so much money on those things. So much money.

Tozara:


There were elements like you in my class back then. But they weren't as lucky as you.

You would make away with my toy and claim ownership? Ehn, kini?

You wouldn't do it again.

80s? Guys don old o

I actually started seeing the soldiers inside fake chinchin and gift packs in the 2000s.
never new they've always been around.

Redman44:



Are you serious ? I thought these Cowboy and Indian Warrior toys did not exist in Nigeria after the early 90's. So they were still around in the 2000's ? Jesus is Lord o. But I did not see them being sold in shops in the 2000's. In the 2000'a, I was already attending University and actually graduated in 2005. These Cowboys and Indians warrior toys arrived in Nigeria in the late 70's and were very popular in the 80's.

FlyingTOMATOE:
I used to have lots of these toys.
Maybe that was why I always wanted to be a soldier.
I don't know why everything just changed when I grew up
