Trolls, Beanie Babies and Furbies - these are some of the toys all 90s kids wanted. Photos / Supplied
It's Friday so why not take a trip down Nostalgia Avenue and reminisce about the awesome toys kids got to play with in the 90s.
In the late 90s these cute (creepy) little creatures arrived. Blinking eyes, and the ability to speak Furbish - these were pretty high-tech back then.
In 1996 parents thought their dreams have come true substituting a real pet with one of these digital egg-shaped virtual pets.
Sure Barbie has had her critics over the years, and is no longer as popular as she once was. But, in 1992, every girl wanted Totally Hair Barbie. With her crimped blonde hair and psychedelic minidress she was a triumph of the 90s.
In 1992 Macaulay Culkin used a cassette player recorder in Home Alone 2: Lost in New York. The following year it was made into a working retail version and kids went nuts.
Of course an oven that actually works would be an instant hit!
Magical, beautiful little fairies... Until they spun up and into your face. In 2000 Galoob, the manufacturer, recalled the toys.
A toy AND a fashion statement, slap bracelets were the ultimate 90s must-have.
The original mystery face-guessing game.
Big eyes, fluffy hair, plastic bodies. One troll was never enough.
According to Wikipedia, nine original Beanie Babies were launched in November 1991: Legs the Frog, Squealer the Pig, Spot the Dog, Flash the Dolphin, Splash the Whale, Chocolate the Moose, Patti the Platypus, Brownie the Bear (later renamed "Cubbie"), and Pinchers the Lobster (with some tag errors with "Punchers"). They were not in factory production until 1994.
