I loved legos and toy weapons. I loved sword fights and took toy sword fights seriously and was rather violent. I went on to become a martial artist, legally fighting by the age of 16. I was good- by 19 I beat everyone in my class and three instructors but had a stalemate with the head instructor. I love to brag about my skills in fighting.
But seriously I loved sword fights and airsoft guns. I still have my 300$ airsoft gun. I also had a shotgun and sniper rifle. I always won airsoft games, whichever gun I used. I played too many shooter games and was naturally good at play war of all varieties.
Airsoft guns, plastic swords, fighting with gloves and headgear, lol.
But as a little boy I was obsessed with dinosaurs, science and legos. The violent crap came around the age of 9. I hit puberty at 10.
speaking of violent cr*p…
I had a science class with an old childhood friend freshman year of high school and he asked me if I remembered chasing him up a tree with an ax. I had not remembered this but when reminded I seemed to indeed have a vague memory of him being up a tree and I wielding an ax.
Noo-oo-oo-no- – It wants me to be more descriptive…
Making things, imagination, climbing trees. At one time I wanted to be a cowgirl. Riding my bikee. My brother + I also made dams in the mud when it rained .
Food, candy, my bike, bugs, LEGO, my microscope, any sort of chemical reaction I could get going (I blew up lots of shiz in elementary school), reading, and sci-fi television shows.

Slot cars!!! Those were probably my favorite toy as a kid. They we expensive though. I only got them every few years and only on a Christmas. But my friends had sets too, we played with them a lot. In fact when me and my friend were 16 his older brother moved out of the house and we put together our two sets and made his brothers empty bedroom into one giant track. It was so fun. We even had some of the TOUGH stoners from school coming over to race with us, lol.
Jigsaw puzzles. Knives.
I had an unhappy childhood. Liked to swim or take out the bicycle and get lost. Spent a lot of time on the studies once I got into a school with teachers that did presentations to the class, answered questions and graded papers. I thought I could get a scholarship and leave but got stuck with parents longer…
Things were good for a long time as an adult though…We are called analyticals sometimes. : )
I too had a very unhappy childhood. I loved my doll until my dad burned it to keep me silent. After that I secretly wrote in journals and hid them inside my mattress. When I was older I loved to bike ride. It was my only fleeting freedom.
What the heck am I doing awake at this hour?
I also did a brief stint as a scuba diver as a kid. Not much to see in these cold murky waters though…
I don’t remember having interests or being invested in much of anything.
Reading, jigsaw puzzles, drawing, marbles, fire engines and roosters (when I was very young), swimming (when I got over my fear of water), going on Sunday drives with my parents, cartoons, etc.
Toy soldiers (plastic ones), my soldiers were always German and we played ‘wargames’ already when we were little children, once my brother was cutting a head off one of my German soldiers and I tried to save it which ended sadly when my brother almost cut my finger off with a razor blade.
Mostly drawing, making model cars, space ships and classic monsters like frankenstein, and dracula. Doodle art (big posters made for felt tip pens). Comic books (I loved Swamp Thing the most). Swimming, fishing with grandpa. candy, candy, candy. Ice cream, ice cream, ice cream…haha…
My brother’s toy soldiers were American and he sometimes burned my German toy soldiers, I suppose he did not want me to win.
I don’t think they sold German toy soldiers in my country, but I might be wrong.
I looked up some pictures so yeah I guess they had them.
One of our ‘wargames’ was also so called ‘rokkaputkisota’ in which we run around in the forest and blew rowan-berries through tubes to each other. Those were the time in my childhood.
mine would be playstations,computers and football/basketball
