1. Care Bear
   Cabbage Patch Kid
2. Glo Worm
   Barbie

If you grew up believing that babies came from a garden and all of them had their father's name tattooed on their butts, you probably had a Cabbage Patch Kid. These dolls were a hot item in the 1980s.

1. Glo Worm
   Teddy Ruxpin
2. Betsy Wetsy
   Molie

Glo Worms were marketed to younger children, but pretty much every '80s child had one. They were great if you were scared of the dark, or if you just needed something not-so-soft to snuggle.

1. Barbie
   Rainbow Brite
2. Wuzzles
   Tripers

Rainbow Brite was a pretty great way to fight the Barbie craze. She was a larger doll who had her own television show. There was nothing like opening up your first Rainbow Brite doll on Christmas morning.

1. Tribbles
   Fluppy Puppies
2. Popples
   Care Bears

Care Bears were one of the most popular stuffed animals of the 1980s. They even had their own cartoon on Saturday mornings. Each Care Bear had its own personality and a logo on its belly.

1. Rainbow Brite
   Lite Brite
2. Etch-A-Sketch
   Magnadoodle

If you had a stockpile of black construction paper, you didn't have to buy the designs from the toys store. This toy was a pegboard connected to a lightbox, and it worked and sold like crazy in the '80s.

1. Bubble Mower
   Bubblers
2. Fisher Price Roller Skates
   Little Stoppers

While the design of roller skates has changed a little over time, if you simply strapped these to your shoes, you never had to worry about transitioning footwear while you were playing outside.

1. Crebbies
   Mighty Men
2. Masters of the Universe
   G.I. Joe

He-Man and the Masters of the Universe put the power into little children's hands. As a matter of fact, they were marketed toward all boys who wanted to have more power.

1. Gobots
   Transformers
2. Hot Wheels
   Micro Machines

If you grew up in the 1980s, you remember (very clearly) the man who spoke very fast in the Micro Machines commercials. The Micro Machines guy is famous, but you probably only caught about ten percent of what he said.

1. My Little Pony
   Unicorni
2. Rainbow Brite
   Micros

My Little Pony dolls were an excellent addition to your Barbie collection if you were an '80s girl. These magical creatures were colorful with movable (sort of) parts. They were a gorgeous addition to any girl's toy box.

1. Popper
   Pogo Ball
2. Bop-It
   Simon

Pogo Balls were for people who had no idea how to get more than one bounce on a pogo stick. You simply had to hold the ball between your feet and jump. It was always a contest to see who could get the most hops without falling.

1. Hot Looks Dolls
   Popples
2. Bouncers
   Bounders

Popples were a short-lived toy that was pretty genius. It was a stuffed animal that folded into a ball. These days, you can find a "Popples" series on Netflix, but back in the day, it was all about using your imagination.

1. Rainbow Brite
   Pogos
2. My Pups
   Pound Puppies

Pound Puppies were another great way to get children interested in stuffed animals. They were also great for collecting. Pound Puppies were each sold separately, but their commercials made it look like you could own your own pet shop.

1. She-Ra Princess of Power
   Blue Shrews
2. Masters of the Universe
   Strawberry Shortcake

If your brother liked He-Man, you liked She-Ra. She was all about girl power and could do anything that He-Man could do (sometimes even better). She had a whole group of friends to help her, as well.

1. Plushies
   Hushies
2. Smooshies
   Wuzzles

Smooshies are probably the best toy ever made. They never broke (though they could get holes in them), and they were perfect for any playset. These mini stuffed animals could fit into anything (they were like cats, but cooler).

1. Squishies
   Wuzzler
2. Bratz
   Strawberry Shortcake

With friends like Blueberry Muffin, Orange Blossom and Plum Pudding, how could Strawberry Shortcake not be the sweetest character ever made? Oh, and the strawberry smell on this doll lasted years and years.

1. Doctor Bear
   Cricket
2. Teddy Ruxpin
   Filipe

While there may be no TED talk about Teddy Ruxpin, we all wanted Teddy because he could talk. He had a series of books to follow along, which helped children read, and if you put a speed metal tape in his back, he would rock out.

1. Fraggles
   Wuzzles
2. Snaggles
   Smurfs

If you don't remember Wuzzles, don't feel so bad. These characters only had one season on TV to make an impression, and even though they didn't last, the creative interspecies animals were great stuffed animals.

1. He-Man
   Transformers
2. Wuzzles
   G.I. Joe

Let's make one thing clear: G.I. Joe wasn't a doll. He was an action figure. This was, of course, back in the day when dolls were strictly for girls. One of the greatest marketing plans of all times was calling G.I. Joe an action figure.

1. Transformers
   G.I. Joe
2. Star Wars figurines
   Masters of the Universe

Transformers were robots in disguise. They basically mixed all of the boy likes of the time: aliens, robots and trucks. These toys were pretty expensive, but they were totally worth it as they are all collectibles now.

1. Dress Mates
   Fashion Plates
2. Bubbles
   Crickets

Fashion plates were super fun. If you loved clothes or coloring, you might have had one of these bad boys. While they are collectible items now, they were considered a quiet time toy back in the 1980s,

1. Polly Pocket
   Puppy Surprise
2. View Finder
   Wrinkles

View Finders were a great way to go on vacation when your parents couldn't afford it. You could learn from them and be entertained by them at the same time. You didn't need a projector for them either.

1. Simon Says
   Precious Places
2. Speak and Spell
   Whiz Kid

Whiz Kid was a computer for children that had cartridges with different learning elements. These things were awesome, as long as you didn't have a younger sibling breaking your card cartridges all the time.

1. Rubik's Cube
   My Buddy
2. Speak and Spell
   Simon

Simon was a fun game for the first twenty minutes you owned it. After that, it became a control hub on your G.I. Joe's pretend spaceship. If you never did that, you're probably regretting it right now.

1. Finders Keepers
   My Buddy
2. Puppy Surprise
   Baby Furskin

Baby Furskin might sound a little too close to a piece of the male anatomy, which is probably why sales of this stuffed animal didn't last very long. However, it was a very cute toy, as long as you renamed it.

1. Army Boy
   Joe Havens
2. Little Person
   My Buddy

My Buddy dolls were just that, dolls. At this time, it was a bold move to call a boys' toy a doll, but My Buddy just worked. He was a normal kid who liked to play in the mud. Just look at the commercials.

1. PSP
   Mighty Player
2. Hand Player
   Game Boy

Game Boy's first design was a heavy grey brick that gave young players Carpal Tunnel Syndrome before they hit puberty. However, it definitely helped them get better at monochrome gaming.

1. Little People
   Cones
2. Shoppers
   Working People

Little People were an excellent little toy. At first, they were made out of wood, but soon, plastic replaced the material as it was more durable. It's not easy living without arms or legs, but these figurines managed.

1. Tarper
   Little People
2. Slip 'N Slide
   Water Maker

What happens when you put a piece of plastic on the ground and saturate it with water? Bruising, breaking and scraping. Heaven help you if you missed a rock while putting this thing down. Ouch!

1. Snorks
   Smurfs
2. Fraggles
   Muppets

Smurfs like to change English words to the word "smurf" or some variation of it. For the most part, it was completely random, but you can catch that "smurf" is generally used for verbs and adjectives. No smurfin' way!

1. Puffalump
   Madballs
2. Armatron
   Family Schoolhouse

Madballs were pretty gross. They had zombies and random monster heads on rubber balls. While the balls didn't bounce very well, they were often purchased around Halloween because of their theme.

1. Tonka Truck
   Microtruck
2. Filler Truck
   Yellow Truck

When you have a product this good, you don't even have to give it a witty name. Tonka Trucks were easily the longest-lasting toy the universe has ever seen. They were made out of metal, so there were some injuries, but they were awesome, so no one cared.

1. Playskool
   Baby Grows
2. Kid Sister
   Cricket

In a time that demanded that boys' toys were boys' toys and girls' toys were girls' toys, Cricket was the answer to the huge hit, Teddy Ruxpin. Cricket came out just a year after Teddy as a talking doll for girls.

1. Bubble Pipe
   Bubble Mower
2. Tape Recorder
   Popper

Add bubbles, and watch your child fake mow your lawn. While this toy didn't teach children about the dangers of mowing lawns, it did teach them that bubbles are cool, if they come from a lawnmower.

1. Fisher Price Garage
   Boglins
2. Fisher Price Farm
   Tape Recorder

The animals had legs, but the people didn't. It was probably because no one wanted to ride a pig. This little farm made noise when you opened the door, and batteries were not necessary. It was awesome.

1. Snappers
   Poppers
2. Flappers
   Cappers

You had to press a Popper down, and it would pop up really high. However, when children were pushing them into their eyes, these toys didn't last long. They relied on suction to jump, and without it, they simply didn't work (making them safer).

1. Poppers
   Moon Shoes
2. Pillow Pal
   Corn Popper

Not very many children had these shoes, because of their incredibly dangerous design. However, suspending shoes from a bucket by rubber bands didn't seem like a bad idea at the time of conception.

1. Medical Kit
   Letter and Number Blocks
2. Droppers
   Weapons

Wood blocks were a great way to teach children their ABCs and 123s. Not only could children learn from these blocks, they could also build exactly what they wanted (as long as it was square).

1. Wrestlers
   Muscle Men
2. Little Fighters
   Little Flyers

What do you get when you mash up green Army Men with wrestling action figures? Muscle Men. They were creative and each of them had a different ability that was clear by their design. It was like playing G.I. Joe with even more imagination.

1. Corn Popper
   Mouser
2. Louser
   Vacuum

Corn Poppers were fun toys that helped children learn how to walk and make noise at the same time. They were fun to play with (for the toddlers), but not fun to listen to. They weren't as loud as vacuums, but they were just as annoying.

1. Pillow Pals
   Pound Puppies
2. Pound Purries
   Rainbow Brite

If you don't remember, D.J. Tanner had a Pillow Pal on "Full House." We never saw a close up of this thing, because Pillow Pals didn't necessarily have the best design out of all of the '80s stuffed animals.
