Admit it, who hasn’t gone through a box of old toys, experiencing complex, contradictory feelings? Here is both the joy of recognition and sadness about the transience of time, the irrevocability of a happy, free, carefree time, where everyone loves us and takes care of us. It’s worth picking up a toy from a long time ago, even just looking at it, and your heart will ache from the rush of memories.





And toys very well reflect the era, system and way of life, even ideology. They were produced not only by special factories - in the USSR, the production of toys was entrusted even to serious heavy engineering factories. And how accurately these attributes of childhood reflected the trends and tastes of society! Just remember the coveted Barbie: a slender model, but her manufacturers were sued, accusing her of promoting teenage bulimia and anorexia. It's a matter of Soviet baby dolls and sturdy dolls! But then the problem of mass obesity, including childhood obesity, had not yet matured...

Also note: all countries produce entire collections of military toys, equipment and weapons. Symbolic, right? World peace is still a long way off...

1. Our dads dreamed, our mothers dreamed... And children too



2. Clockwork lunar rover with a key... How do you like this, Elon Musk?





3. Good Doctor Aibolit... Did you have such a set?



4. Soviet KAMAZ lay underground for more than 30 years



5. Hello from childhood



6. I dug up a treasure trove of Soviet children's toys at the dacha. Nostalgia…



7. Restored a USSR toy



8. Two dolls from the Moscow factory of souvenir and gift toys, “Friendship of Peoples” series, 1980s



9. Programmable lunar rover from the USSR



10. The radio-controlled tank that every Soviet boy dreamed of



11. Sports radio-controlled car



12. Battery-powered boat "Neptune"



13. Nadya doll from the early 80s, Dnepropetrovsk toy factory



14. Radio designer



15. Figures of heroes from the program “Good night, kids!”



16. Wood burning set



17. Someone even took this tumbler apart: there the glass tube would hit the iron pegs...



Or, an option with a steel plate suspended on a rope, beating against steel plates or steel wire:

18. Someone learned to sew on this machine, the dream of girls in the USSR



19. Wind-up hare: just turn the key...



20. Everyone’s favorite lotto for long winter evenings



21. Maybe it doesn’t look like the real thing, but it’s so desirable...



22. No worse than 3D



Children of the distant 70s dreamed of when their parents would turn off the lights, pull on a white sheet and turn on the magic filmoscope. Filmstrips were learned by heart, their plots became firmly entrenched in memory. Modern children are not as happy in 3D cinema as Soviet children in the rays of this ancient projector...

23. “Behind the wheel.” Not only a popular Soviet-era magazine, but also an interactive toy of our childhood



24. We managed without computers and even game consoles...



25. Soviet robots are the most durable in the world



26. Yes, not Barbie. But what charm!



27. A simple model, but what nostalgia...



28. White submarine. It was controlled using a wired remote control; someone must have run this in the bathtub. However, the long wire made it possible to launch in open waters.



29. This is the Intercosmos planetary rover, which was an unattainable dream during Soviet times



The toy came with a remote control and instructions. The car moved back and forth and made a turn in place. And there were even lighting effects!

30. Possible with an antenna



31. Battery-powered radio-controlled dogfight. A game for two: one controlled the rocket launcher, the other? by plane



32. "Battleship"



Most of us have played the “paper version”, but this one is certainly cooler. For the sake of such a toy, it was worth catching up in my studies and helping my mother with household chores.

33. Electronic piano “Chizhik” introduced children to musical instruments



The keyboard consisted of only two octaves, but this was quite enough to master the basics of music. She squealed mercilessly - the parents suffered a lot... or they also started playing music

34. Another greeting from childhood - the artifact is 32 years old



35. A board game that caused more delight and excitement among children of the 70s and 80s than any ultra-modern one now. Just hippos, just eating balls...



36. Do you recognize? In those distant, distant times, our football players sometimes won...



37. No one will say about these toys “They’re not fun”...



38. Or this set...



39. A brilliant collection of Soviet vehicles. Envy takes over!



40. Found after 25 years!



I was digging for potatoes from my parents and found my loss, which had gone missing 25 years ago. As a child, I had a whole set of military equipment, but I loved this machine most of all!

41. The Maxim toy machine gun was produced by the Kyiv Experimental Mechanical Plant



42. Busy board of our childhood



Here the frog croaks, the cat runs away from the dog, everything else spins and clicks. Dream!

43. The harsh Soviet children's iron... Ministry of Automotive Industry, Kuibyshev Carburetor Plant



44. What about fishing?



45. Hello to the same wolf who caught eggs



46. Tamagotchi, our love...



47. Who remembers why these fluffy balls were needed?



48. I played, I play and I will play!



49. Slime balls. An indispensable item for wallpaper and chalkboards



50. Casino of our childhood
