Poll of the Day > When did you stop playing with children's toys?

(+) Yeah! (+)

I'm talking about child's play, where you do creative stuff/scenarios with things by yourself. I think 11 or 12 for me.

Yeah around there I still played with action figures. I think around 13 I stopped.

Dunno. I'm 27 and still legitimately enjoy playing with Lego and they're generally for kids 3-8.

I mean, it's one thing to build a lego set, it's another to play with it as a finished/built thing. I'm talking about the latter.

...I reenact little dramas with my Lego figurines.

Aside from video games, which some people still think are children's toys?

I don't remember the age, but my mother started yelling at me about cleaning up my room and might have said something about throwing away my toys. I called her bluff and threw all of my toys away myself. It was rough, and I'm not sure if it sent a message, but that was pretty much it.

Well I stopped playing with figures at the age of 14. I had loads of them from Transformers, Batman and wrestling ones to name a few. I kept them for a few years after that but then ended up giving them to my dads then GF for the kid she adopted(save for my wrestling ones). I kinda wish I kept them all so I could have gave them to my Nephews though.

I quit originally around I guess 8 but started again around 11 because a new friend got me into playing with wrestling action figures. finally got to a point I was just collecting them and ended up giving them away to said friend who was actually a couple of years older than me. so around 12 I guess

Didn't play with toys by the age of 8 or 9. Then beyblade happened, so definitely not after 11 or 12, 13 at most.

"Stop"? I still have toys in my bedroom ; )
I don't play with them of course, that would be ridiculous.

I do collect Transformers figures though. They're kinda neat.
I have even started to consider importing more expensive ones.

I lost most interest around age 11, but was stuck in "buying them mode" until about 12 or 13. At that point it was all Marvel or SW. They basically just sat there until I sold them all though.

Around 11-13 is when they stopped being used for imagination and started being used as display pieces. Honestly, some of the really high-end stuff isn't much different from a statue.

And, if you're counting card games, I played a few until around after college.

Same, although the recent stuff hasn't been great. Started getting some of them back when I saw the Reveal the Shield line at Marshall's and then got into collecting it for a few years, going back for some older stuff like the Generations seekers. Even wound up springing for a few of the far more expensive Masterpieces (Thundercracker, Skywarp, and Soundwave) which I haven't liked as much since the transformations are kinda complex.

There are children's toys?

Not gonna lie, once I know I can beat a Fire Emblem game, I try beating it with parties that feel "right" given the story, regardless of how powerful they are. For instance, in Awakening, it just feels right to have Stahl and Sully marry each other, since they're the green and red cavaliers.

I still do. My action figures are just made of pixels instead of plastic.
