>>10343663>My childhood was mostly in the 90s but I remember getting a wood carving kit. I have never been so upset and annoyed by a gift in my life. never!>I have never opened the case. I'm 38 now and I'm pretty sure those tools are still covered in oil because I've never used them.I recall getting a wood carving kit with an electric burning tool. I never did anything with wood with that thing. I just used the burner to cut plastic for really bad customs.
I have to assume those were hot toys in the 50s and 60s for like boy scouts and someone actually thought they were being clever giiving it in the 80s. Perhaps hippie shit when they were making leather and bead jewelery.
The thing is, you can't just give a kid that shit. They have no frame of reference. You'd need to sit down and craft with them. Which I feel like most 80s and 90s parents did not do.
a lot of 80s and 90s and even 00s were unengaged and I think that is a major cause of encels and shitty women now. A lack of socialization and quality time with adults.
>PS:>but yeah i get what you mean.>Back then we were getting just "random toys" that we didn't know anything about.>But i watch all those videos and reviews and it seems that the advertisement of 80s toys were everywhere and it seems that kids were chasing the trends like crazy. I don't know if it's true.oh the 80s was nuts. Toys were being launched like AAA video games and block buster movies now. Or like a major CD release. Kids today can't fathom it. Literal fucking walls of figures and playsets and vehicles all for the same line all at one time. 15 to 20 feet long, 15 feet high, toys. Plus there was no internet. It was all commercials and those pack in pamphlets. There was a very good chance you'd see cool toys you didn't know anything about every time you went shopping.
