From this list I chose bike because I remember getting some cool-ass "futuristic" looking bike (read: it had these gray plastic covers on the wheels to make it look some faux moon rover or something ). Plus it was my only way of getting to various houses to play with my friends - for all you younger folk, we played these really bizarre "analog" games outdoors! With crazy names like basketball, baseball, and football!
Though around this age too right up there with bike would be any Nintendo game. And yes, that's right, I'm talking original NES. This was the late 80s.

Ok, the young guys are probably thinking, where's the Xbox or Ipod
These choices probably apply to the over 35 set.
I must have grown old over night.. I never really got that much into Xbox (dislike especially this one immensely) or most other video games.. Lego is my choice without question out of those. Don't ask about details, just let me state that lego is the winner for me.

We used to walk up to the bowling alley on Saturdays to hang out at their arcade (or ride our bikes, but it was shorter to cut through the fields and climb brick walls than it was to ride the bike out to the main road).
From the above list, my vote goes for my bike. I never really had that cool of a bike as a kid, but I used to ride it everywhere.

Nuclear Plant Set!
More seriously, I used to play with my Smurfs, pretending they were some aliens reigning over a whole galaxy. A strange crossover with my Star Wars toys happened very quickly.

Lego's no doubt. As a kid I had plenty of them and loved to play with them, specially with Star Wars series of Lego. You can let loose your imagination with Lego's.
