If you had to guess which toys you played with when you were between the ages of 5 and 13, which ones would you think might be rare collectables in say 30 years?

Tinkertoys. Also these aren't toys but Tintin comics.

Old Thomas the Tank Engine videos/movies

I'm talking the ones from the 90s and very early 2000s.

Legos.

Stupid artificial scarcity,
When I bet they could easy enough cheap produce whatever people might ask for,
But maybe not, Legos are quality.

Well another reason to buy a 3D printer, I suppose,
If one wanted 'not quality.
. . .

Darn it Dad, why'd you always throw out our toys against our wishes?
Be cheaper if you hadn't needed to keep buying new ones,
But nooo,
I leave a Pokémon card out as a child, and you throw it in the trash.
Other toys,
I've no idea 'why you threw them out.
Seems so 'random in hindsight,
Toys not left out but in nice boxes.

Probably would have whacked me if I tried throwing your stuff out.
. .
Still love you though Dad.

I would guess none of them. Pretty sure by the end of my 30s warfare will bomb my old home that is so old it probably has nobody except dust living in it. I move a lot, so that is a real concern.
