And then they proceeded to completely ruin it forever... I stopped following it after the Mask of Light movie.

The mystery, mythology, spirituality etc of the first year made it the best
It happened the same as me, I think they started to ruin it when they passed to Metru Nui's story. It lost magic.

You know what I miss?

Polish figurines of Disney characters, made exclusively in Poland. Granted, they were a bit ugly, but I had a soft spot for them and always went out with my grandma to buy some. All I've got now is Huey, Dewey and Minnie. I had Donald, Scrooge, that chick from Hercules, Mickey, Scrooge, Daisy... there were about 80 of them actually. Sheesh, what happened to them? :|

I still have a liking for Transformers toys, even if they're from the 80's

I didn't get that...Are you talking about the duration of BIONICLE?
I remember actually doing a talk on LEGO as part of a Speaking Exam, I even brought in my favourite creation for my fellow classmates to gaze in awe upon.

Just remembered I had a toy guitar, little did I know I'll play guitar for over half of my life. My dad had an electric guitar and teached me how to snap a G-string while fingering a minor.

I had an MSX with 8-Bit games. I was one of the few to experience the fun of the early gaming generation from these ages. :)

Never heard of that, but it sure looks interesting...

The oldest console I ever had was a PS1, but thanks to emulators, I am able to experience the classics well.

Anyone here remember those magnetic bead things that made a buzzing sound when put them together?

I had one too...in fact I think it's still around here somewhere. Mine was 'Snoopy Tennis'. I had another one, which was a dual screen, called 'Oil Panic', but it broke. What about yours?

I remember those magnetic things. There was one of them stuck to the metal ceiling above my locker in school for a year.
