What's the One thing you wanted for Xmas but never got?

The Night Raven S3P and the Killer Whale. I never wanted a Flagg, too large.

I can't really complain as I had (still have) a ton of Joe stuff including the Terrordrome. But for me it would have to be the Flagg...

This was another toy that eluded me. I remember drooling over it in the toy aisle @ Bradlees because I was at that age when I was into both gi joe toys & RC cars and I remember thinking this was the shit.
An RC car that could carry joes-genius! Why didn't I think of that?
I never did get one though I guess Santa ran out of them.

Bro that's awesome!!!! I have never seen or even heard of that before!!!

The WHALE and the Star Wars AT-AT. I got the Sea Platform, Hydrofoil, and Water Mocassin instead. I asked for that AT-AT from both sets of grandparents and ended up with two AT-STs instead. Not that that’s a bad thing.. but it wasn’t an AT-AT.
The POTF2 AT-AT came out when I was about 20 or so. I told my parents they had to get it for me that year because they owed me and they did.��

Yep it was sweet. It could carry figures. Also it said on the box that it'd do 100mph which made it that much cooler

I did the same thing to my parents when the Star Wars stuff was starting to be released in the mid 90s. I'm 43 and still get one toy from Mom and Dad at Christmas.

So this thread inspired something for me. It reminded me of the MCC that I didn't get for Christmas back in 1987. But as noted in my previous reply, I picked one up this year. I've already disassembled and cleaned it, and it happens that my reproduction stickers arrived today. So my 2020 Christmas morning is going to be assembling and getting this bad boy stickered up!
