Does Warhammer count? I managed to horde a large amount of LOTR, and 40k when I was younger.

From my very distant childhood: The Comic Smoke Gun! Actually used by Commander Buzz Corry on the 1950s TV show Space Patrol. I got my very own with some box tops and loose change.

My favovourite childhood memory was of my two Dinky Eagles (A transporter and a Cargo.) I broke one the first day i got it.

Back in the 80's i really liked my Star Birds from Milton Bradley.

Hastings book and movie store has an amazing variety of SyFy toys. They have a lot of horror figures, too.

Every time I go in there for movies I tell myself to pick up a few of those little figures, but for some reason I never do.

Next time I'm in there If I find something Interesting I get it and post a photo.
