I remember my sister getting a bionic women doll with all these little microchip things and I was so jealous. I loved my Magic Roundabout toys and my wombles. Then there was my Caveman 'handheld' arcade game that was huge.

A Girls World rindy that was called because i had the one with brunette hair and my niece had one with blonde hair. I also had a bionic woman as well until my niece lost all the bits out of her. Tiny Tears until my niece tried to dye the hair with her felt tips and draw tattoos on her.
