Metal toys, because i kept on hurting people with them.
These jets were the best. Heavy as fuck and detailed as fuck. I set off a nice trend at my grade school bringing one of these in and all my friends suddenly needed them too.
That trend ended when i was playing catch with it by flipping it into the air. The pointy ends really hurt if you caught it wrong, because they're metal and the entire jet was like an entire half pound. So I thought it was good idea to play catch with my friend. He sucked at catching, so when i flipped it up into the air he went directly under its path to catch it with his head. He dropped like a rock and was leaking blood onto the black top.
School didn't ban metal toys, but i got in trouble, because schools were still awesome back then. My mom got mad and took away my metal jets.
So probably that same year, i started buying those Mega Force toys by Kenner. The tanks and jets were made of diecast. For whatever reason, i got mad at a friend and i threw one of the 1/4th pound metal tanks at him. He bled and cried like a bitch for half an hour.
My mom then banned all metal toys.
No problem, since toys were being made from plastic from then on. Kinda sad though, since diecast toys are the best weapons a kid can ever own and no cop will ever stop you from carrying one of these killers
