    Finalists For 2016 Toy Hall Of Fame

    The Fisher-Price Little People and Care Bears will square off against Rock 'Em Sock 'Em Robots and Transformers for a place in the National Toy Hall of Fame.
    Whether any or all make it will be announced Nov. 10.

    The hall revealed 12 finalists for the class of 2016 on Tuesday at The Strong museum. The list also includes Nerf foam balls, the board game Clue, the card game Uno, pinball, the swing, Dungeons & Dragons and coloring books.
    Bubble wrap rounds out the list. If selected, it would join the cardboard box and stick among unconventional honorees.

    Liked the rockem sockem. Wasn't much into card games except mouse trap. Loved the electric race car sets.
    Would but all the straight pieces together and run drag races when got bored with always putting the cars back
    on the track. Funny, grew up to be a drag racer.

    Thinking back to my childhood, I'd have to go with either Rockem-Sockem or the game Clue.
