The 1990s were an amazing decade for toys. We just barely missed the monsters craze from the 1980s and missed some really iconic toys like Rubik's cubes, lite brites and SIMON, but the 90s is when technology really started having an impact on the way kids played with their dolls, action figures and eventually, virtual pets.

From POGs to Barnyard Commandos, to Yak Bak, laser pointers and TIGER games, the following is a votable list of the most nostalgia-inducing toys from the 90s. Upvote the ones you had, downvote the ones you either wanted and didn't get or just plain old hated. Add any you can think of that are missing and have fun going through what most people's attics are currently filled with. These are the best toys of the 90s. Toys have only gotten worse.

    The show really came into its own in the 90s, but the greatest part of the toys (the vehicles) were really the most memorable parts.

      Stretch Armstrong started in 1976. I had one in '77. It lasted into the 90's. Yes, I broke mine.....but it was sooooo cool.

      Slap bracelets! Only made better by the rumors that they could slash open your wrists.

      I added Sticky Hands and Barbies to your list, in my opinion, it was missing [:

        Barbies aren't '90s, but sticky hands are a GREAT CALL!
