Memorable Holiday Presents?

<< < (2/8) > >>

Front-Ranger:
I gave a little Ford pickup truck in the famous colors to EDelMar a year or two ago. It has a little Christmas tree in the back. I think Chrissi has one.

Memorable presents I have received, last year my son gave me a Camelback. It is a small backpack that has a water reservoir in the back and a tube so that you can stay hydrated without stopping. Also he gave me a rock climbing helmet which I cherish. My daughter gave me a cap and scarf that she had knitted herself. I get compliments every time I wear them.

Jeff Wrangler:
Doesn't anyone else have anything memorable from childhood holidays?

- I remember getting a navy blue Tonka military Jeep when I was very young.
- One year I got a battery operated robot that sort of scooted along on wheels under its feet, and every so often its chest would open and these little plastic guns would pop out shoot light flashes.
- One year my brothers and I got a joint present of a Hot Wheels racing system with cars, tracks, ramps, etc. The most fun part of that was whacking each other with the flexible orange track segments.

I got a red metal, drivable, pedal fire truck with a bell (we've got an 8mm film of me drivin' the critter). Not only the most memorable present but saw one on Pawn Stars that went for thousands of dollars. Asked mom what ever happened to that fire truck & her reply was, "whut"....   ;D

The 'Clapper' was based television remotes that worked based on loud clicks emitted from bulky remote controls............
