Nostalgic Toys From the 1970s

Nostalgic listmaker Rhetty for History looked back on popular toys and games of the 1970s that have all gone away for good due to outdated technology, lack of interest, or danger to the child and/or the child’s younger siblings.

The 1970s was full of great toys. Unfortunately many of those toys have been lost to time. Technology and trends have propelled us forward and some of these old 70s toys have been forgotten by kids today. For those of us who played with them we will never forget them.
