How many of these seriously awesome gifts did you REALLY want!?
If you grew up in the nineties, you'll no doubt have some fond memories of the presents that you were bought and loved, or ones that you always wanted but never actually got (we know your pain).
Well we had a little think and put together a list of the essential presents that every nineties kid absolutley had to have - we'd be happy to get half of these today tbh!
So how many of these incredible gifts did you actually own then?
I still have a original #Furby the Christmas one he doesn't work though he used to though. He was a limited edition to. pic.twitter.com/05GSlrOoEz
