i always wanted a 4-wheeler and a computer. i finally bought myself a computer (a few), but never got the 4-wheeler

 

[wordmunger]

I'm 41

I always wanted a slot car track.
Also, a remote-control car.

Someone got me really crummy versions of each (a track that broke in a week or two; a "remote-control" car that was connected by a wire to the controller), but I don't think that should count...

 

[MagicWok]

I'm 25 now, and here are my two items:
(ed- hmm seems that I was a bit fascinated with all things TV )

- Sega Game Gear with the TV add-on!!

- And this wonderfull thing:
(TV Remote control watch) - I wanted to cause so much mischief with it...

 

[GimmeSlack12]

I really really really wanted a Power Mac 8100/110.

I'm 27. I could not believe it when I saw a computer that exceeded 100 MHz.

[costabunny]

I wanted a daddy

(and an Amiga A3000)

[furcalchick]

i'm 23.

1. power wheels vehicles (those tiny car vehicles), for a few years starting when i was 7.

2. a plane (a real one to fly in actual airports). never did get that pilot license.

(TV Remote control watch) - I wanted to cause so much mischief with it...

funny story, my dad actually found a watch that looked very similar to that in the early 90's (he kept it after nobody came to claim it). it worked for a few years, and it was pretty fun.

 

[psycoswimmer]

I've always wanted a:

grand piano (wanted one at 6, am still waiting at 15)

and a

tennis court in my backyard (this won't happen either ).
