Having to use your imagination while playing is a plus on my book.
Yeah nothing wrong with imagination. Just sucked when a toy promised more than what it delivered.
Like we totally had fun with action figures that had no articulation, and we used our imaginations to make believe.
But then you'd get an RC car and the only steering you get is in reverse, in one direction.
I remember those RC cars. I don't know of I was younger than you, but I thought they were the coolest things!
I do agree that some electronic toys were underwhelming in a sense*. Like "talking" dolls which just played the same recording over and over.
*Underwhelming in the promise, but it was fun to dissect that doll and discover that the recording was an actual tiny plastic disc! (Like a vinyl, but actual plastic and maybe 2 inches in diameter!)
