What are your favorite toys to destroy?
I prefer rippin the heads off of Barbie dolls, especially if it's a brat that I'm baby-sitting....
Cars are fun too. Makin them go through fire and having the rubber tires melt to a stand still in the flames....
The classic action-figure with fireworks holds a special something in everyones heart (or it should)
So anyways, whats your fav and if you got any special stories, share  _________________ 3M 3TI8 |

I've always been a bit obsessive about my toys. I'm not one who ever kept them in their boxes, but I was a little leery of destroying them...
That said, my friend Sean and I did a pretty good number on his GI Joes one day with some spray paint and a lighter. It was somewhat therapeutic _________________ "When you twist my words, you will wring out gravy. I am loyal til the end. " - Roger

| I remember that day, around 1985 or so, I think we called it "The Rain of Fire" I wonder if we could make a movie about it? |

You should do this! At least a little something on YouTube. _________________ "After four pieces of prime rib, the goose is stuffed." --Goose

I don't know about destroy, but when i was a kid I did tend to put my action figures and toys through a good deal of physical punishment.
Let's see, with Han Solo, I would re-enact the famous "frozen in carbonite" scene and put him in a cup of water- then put that in the freezer for several hours. Afterwards, when Luke and Leia would come to rescue him, Han was quick-thawed by scalding hot water from my sink.
I also had a couple of USS Enterprise toys from back in the day when Next Generation came out. I actually "battle-scarred" the ship after imaginary battles with black crayons. Yes, it had a very "used" look after awhile.

I was not a toy destroyer. I did switch the arms around on He-Man toys, but didn't really destroy them. _________________ "After four pieces of prime rib, the goose is stuffed." --Goose

Thinking now I did have a Bo and Luke Duke action figure that I twisted to hard and broke, the main body and legs had a rubber band that held them together, twist and let go and they would spin like crazy, except that one day I twisted them to there graves
Bo and Luke Duke rest in pieces
