I myself wanted one of those remote controlled air planes. I thought that's the coolest thing ever. Once I grew up and had the money, I never bought it.

Inside every person there is a child that never got That One Ting™, and on behalf of that kid I say; do it!

I still don't have a Lego star destroyer (though the one I really want is the Venator), so no

[–] pugsnroses77@sh.itjust.works 2 points 10 months ago

yep. all the video games i had always wanted, like epic mickey and mario sunshine. now i still havent played them lol

[–] Cratermaker@discuss.tchncs.de 2 points 10 months ago

Yeah! I think I still have the exact same tastes as when I was a kid. I always wanted a dirt bike and now I have one, and I always wanted a fast computer with a good sound system, which I now keep relatively up to date. Maybe my kid self would be disappointed that I don't have a fast car though!

[–] OpenStars@startrek.website 1 points 10 months ago

Nope. I realized that I didn't even want it anymore so no point. I do pay attention to my current wants now though - gotta find that balance, Zen.

I got myself a Gameboy colour yesterday. I posted about how expensive they were a bit ago on reddit and I got spam downvoted by a bunch of Scalpers lmao. Another reason not to use Reddit. I got a blue teal one and grabbed some games today and it felt so amazing to feel and see in real life, a gameboy game.

Finding a functional Armatron has been difficult.

[–] TheRagingGeek@lemmy.world 1 points 10 months ago

Armatrons were pretty neat but I can definitely imagine why functional ones are nigh impossible to obtain, I would imagine all the plastic gearing inside either chipped away by careless use and worn down over years
