Transformers mostly.
Watched some He-Man but I really liked the classics (Jetson's, Finstones, Bugs).
I did also watch Voltron, I even had the toy robot and lions action figure.

I never had all five lions. Always wanted to get them all. I bet they're going for big dollars on ebay now.

Yea, if I only knew what I did with that thing or where all the broken pieces are. I had totally forgotten about that until now.

I do still have my Optimus Prime transformer, though I think he has some broken parts as well.

I have looked those up on ebay, and they are worth some major mula if they're in good condition. Never was lucky to own prime myself. I think the closest I ever came was hot rod, pre rodimus prime.

That was the extent of my toy collectibles. One Optimus Prime and Voltron set. I don't know how I managed to score those, I think Christmas gifts in different years.

Thanks, Croaker. I still don't remember that show, but it has 80s awesomeness all over it.

yeah, the Ghetto Transformers. I remember them. I think we even had one or 2 of the toys back in the day. Broke within a few weeks of standard use, if I remember correctly...

I remember the GoBots. I used to watch that as well but I used to watch anything that came on.

I also got the Lion Voltron for one christmas. I think I was in third grade. It was a box with all the lions. It was so cool, man. The only christmas that beat that was Nintendo.

Duck Tales was the best. But the kids loved He-Man & The Masters of the Universe. And of course She-Ra.

Oh did I love Inspector Gadget growing up! I used to love watching that show!

I also watched The Smurfs, My LIttle Ponies, and the Gummy bears while I was growing up!!

Great cartoons!
