Remember those toys that everyone had and you wanted it real bad, but when you got it, it sucked? The one I remember is the Tomagotchi thing that was supposed to be an electronic pet. Right when that fad was dying out, I finally got one. After about 2 days of taking care of that damn thing I got frustrated and threw it away. What are your disappointing toys?<img height="200" src="http://www.firebox.com/pic/p859h.jpg" width="200" border="0" />

Yeah Sea Monkeys were pretty disappointing. I ended up spilling the whole batch of them on the kitchen floor. I thought they were gonna play with me.

Thank you.The commercial and package made it seem like all you had to do was toss Sucker Man from any distance, and he would stick to literally any surface on earth.  In reality, it usually required copious amounts of water and pressing to get any real sticking action to go on.  Then you were like, "It's...like...sticking to stuff...fantastic...I'm done now."

Here are 2 more sucktastic toys from my youth:<img height="440" src="http://images.rei.com/media/438269.jpg" width="440" border="0" />Every kid I knew seemed to have at least one set of jumbo jacks foisted upon them by some old-ass aunt or uncle as a lame birthday gift, although I have never seen an actual game of jacks played by anyone.  This toy blew and should have gone out when "talkies" hit the scene.  I still have no clue how this game is played. <img height="339" src="http://images.amazon.com/images/P/B00000K0FY.01.LZZZZZZZ.gif" width="500" border="0" />This has to be the most complicated and overly complex board game in the history of mankind.  The side of the box for this game should read "For Ages: Ph.D. in World History and Up".  I have never seen child who did not just give up on this game in confused frustration after an hour or so and then never take it out again.  Also, nice politically correct image on the front of the box.  Who manufactured this game, David Duke Enterprises?<img height="100" src="http://home.comcast.net/~bob80/RFnetmarcpsych.jpg" width="300" border="0" />
