Christmas in the '90s.

In a time before iPads and Michael Kors watches on Instagram, we wrote our letters to Santa and asked for toy cars and dolls. The 1990s were an interesting decade for toys and gadgets, to say the least. Here are a few things you might remember from your 1998 Christmas list. If you don't remember actually having the toy, chance are that you remember the commercials because they were awesome.

1. Tamagotchi

Life was a lot easier when all we had to worry about was whether or not we forgot to feed our tamagotchi. Turns out, we forgot.

2. Easy-Bake Oven

Probably the most dangerous children's toy ever invented, but everyone wanted one. They were even nice enough to make one targeted towards boys soon after.

3. Crossfire

Marbles everywhere. Crossfire definitely had the most intense commercial ever released in the '90s, though.

4. Hit Clips

The stocking stuffer that was the perfect key chain on your Lisa Frank backpack. Just in case you wanted to listen to one song at a time.

5. Sky Dancers

Not those blow-up, floppy sky dancers outside used car dealerships. No, sky dancers were much cooler than that and they really fly.

6. Creepy Crawlers

Yeah, you actually wanted to make your own gooey, slimy bugs. Let's be real, you played with them once and then it got pretty old, pretty fast.

7. Skip-It

Right behind Easy-Bake Oven, possibly the second most dangerous children toy ever invented. They should have called this thing Trip-It -- it only led to scarring knee scrapes and embarrassing face plants.

8. Big Wheel

You asked for this for Christmas, and all you knew was that you were about to be the biggest and baddest hombre on the block.

9. Betty Spaghetty

Betty Spaghetty was like the Regina George of the '90s toy game -- the sassiest doll of the '90s.

10. Gameboy Color

Nintendo really stepped up their game when they offered Gameboys in different colors

11. Bop It

One word: frustration.

12. Moon Shoes

They were definitely not that stylish, but the commercials made them look like so much fun, so we asked for them.

13. Furby

The creepiest little gremlins we ever wanted. Even after you take the batteries out, they keep talking. (Suspicious.)

14. Discman

Before iPods and mp3 players, we had these things called CDs. Discmans were less convenient to carry around but they still let us jam out to NSYNC all day long.

15. Razor Scooter

Don't even attempt to do tricks on this thing; it will never look cool.

16. Nintendo 64

"Mario Kart," "Zelda," "Donkey Kong," and "Mario Party" were necessary with your Nintendo 64, and we never forgot to ask.

17. Don't Wake Daddy

Kind of a weird name for a children's game, but we never forgot the commercials, because they were just as weird.

18. Hot Wheels

A law student recently sold his Hot Wheels collection to pay off his student debt. Hope you all kept your collection from Christmas 1998

19. Power Wheels

You drove this thing all over the front lawn, but the fun was over once the battery died. It took about seven hours for it to charge up again, but so worth the wait.

20. Socker Boppers

The socker bopper theme song was stuck in your head all day long, and of course you asked for this for Christmas. You liked them, until you realized that someone always gets hurt with these weapons.
