Talk:List of toys
I really, really doubt this is the sort of undertaking you can expect to finish. Because holy shit Chris owns a lot of crap.--Beat 15:34, 6 May 2010 (UTC)
Bonus points if you also look up their prices for a grand total. I figure somewhere around the millions over the past 28 years. Bill Lumburg 17:06, 6 May 2010 (UTC)
Are videogame systems considered toys? --Jewlay 18:04, 6 May 2010 (UTC)
- We've already got a list for video games, so including them here would be redundant. -- Revolver Octopus 19:01, 6 May 2010 (UTC)
Added some to the list about Transformers, but it's currently incomplete.
- Please sign your comments - it's four tildas (~) in a row. Also, this needs to be put in a sortable list format, see List of Chris's games for an example. --Champthom 02:46, 7 May 2010 (UTC)
im doing the ponys, but chris covered their asses and makes things difficult. i am still working on it, but my question is, do you want pics of the original pony?

- ok you strong, sweaty and sexy men with pickles, the ponies are done. only 3 things, first most of the prices vary from $10 to $30 per pony, so i rounded to to $20 (actually, most of them were 20). second, i have pics of the original ponies, but not in the original colors (technically, ti doesnt matter because each pony comes in different colors). and third, i wrote to the best of my knowledge, if there is something missing or you want me to do something else, tell me kthxbai --Rosechupenis 07:42, 16 May 2010 (UTC)
I can't seem to find any other Power Rangers toys in Chris's room, but I can't imagine that one is the only one he has when he's got a fuckton of transformers, especially from wild force. The zords from that line were all interchangable, so there was the collect-'em-all thing, and that's gotta be up Chris's alley. Anyone notice any others? --Yue 00:06, 7 March 2011 (PST)
I think there should be a note explaining the methodology of this article (i.e. how we're determining which toys Chris has), and try to cite the retail prices.--Champthom 12:23, 7 March 2011 (PST)
Toys and adulthood
I am thinking how I can upgrade the article to add some background or context to Chris’s massive fleet of toys, and what sets Chris apart from other adults. I am planning on starting with something along the lines of:
Firstly, it is important to know that it is not unusual for adults to play with toys, but when they do, there is a purpose. For example, adults often buy soft toys to celebrate an occasion such as a birthday or wedding, or to cope with loneliness or trauma. Another example involves a community of circuit benders, who buy used battery-powered electronic toys to create new sounds and visual effects.
Even Lego blocks have legitimate uses in adulthood: in 2019, Chinese human rights activist Ai Weiwei launched an exhibition that featured the portraits of 43 Mexican students who disappeared in 2014, made entirely of Lego blocks. Ai aimed to convey the “democratic” utility of Lego, specifically to raise awareness of Mexico’s problem with organized crime.(source: https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-latin-america-47907840) And then there’s the Olsen Gang.(source: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6COREb5RDCg) |
The part that I am stuck with is what sets Chris apart from other adults. Any ideas? --Little Owl (talk) 03:14, 29 July 2019 (UTC)
- He plays with toys like a little kid, like in Something Completely Different - A few Transformers Jokes, also anti-Pmurt, because he never grew up mentally. Hurtful Truth Level (talk) 04:12, 29 July 2019 (UTC)
