I had gen 1 bionicles, 90s transformers toys that actually mother fukin transformed PROPERLY was the absolute GOAT and when I'd transform them I'd go eee e oo ee a ooo ee. And a manta force spaceship.
The spaceship was on another level. It had MINI SHIPS AND VEHICLES INSIDE. And little people to sit in the seats and man the systems. And it was so rugged you could pass it down generations.

Tamagotchi was huge in my middle school. It wasn't until some years later I read it was supposed to be marketed to girls while boys got digimon, none of the kids had digimon everyone wanted the tama.
Dragon Flyz were the 'boy version' of Sky Dancers, and Transformers were marketed to boys but I had those despite being AFAB
I also had a Game Boy, pretty sure the name gives away who that was marketed to lol.
Even kid me thought sticking to either boys or girls toys was silly. I liked both.
Everyone thought the gameboy was dope with pokemon.
Yeah! Silly of the marketers to call it a Game Boy. Everyone loved that shit! They caught on eventually by eventually calling the handhelds something else starting with the DS
Meanwhile the Game Gear was just trying to get someone, anyone, to buy it.
If I had kmown Game Gears were a thing when I was a kid, I would have been ALL OVER that.
Me! Me! I had a gamed gear! GG shinobi was my favourite game
