Childhood memories fade...

I used to have one of these damn things as a kid. I really really REALLY wanted one, no idea why, other than it was round, and for my birthday one year my Uncle/Godfather bought me one. But for the life of me, I cannot remember whatever happened to it. So this then brings up the question, is e-Bay the answer to the inner child's prayers?

I bought two light cycles from TRON a few months back from e-Bay. I never had them when I was a kid and always wanted them. I treat them like collectibles, but not the geek kind. I took them out of the boxes, played with them a bit, but not like I would have if I was 10 years old. Do you think my inner child is satisfied yet?

Unfortunately no. I was also bidding on toys I used to have as a kid, but like the Round Rubik's Cube, did not know what happened to it, and wanted to have it again. I worry myself enough with all my other baggage, but this current one is making me think it may be time for formal therapy again. What do you think?
