I can't remember any toys but myself and friends used to bust our asses laughing at the crap that was given away for Focus Points (1 focus point per 20 Embassy No. 1 or Regal King Size fags)

Such highlights included:

a 'Parsons Stereo' (walkman the size of a suitcase)
a 'Parkes Guitar Amplifier' (probably about 3 Watts of Powarrrr)
a 'Silver Bud Vase'

The fact that most of our Focus Points ended up as roaches is undoubtably connected to the perceived hilarity of these items- it doesn't seem half as funny now as I recount them here at work.

I had a Texaco watch. I think I may have used it to listen to the radio once. And a David O'Leary football (which would be pretty cool if I had it now), also from Texaco I would guess.

Now remind me: what was a nipper?
(I can remember the ads but not the nipper)

a nipper was a little furry puppet. i think brendan grace did the ads.

"go on, free a nipper"

Before Jet became Statoil, I collected tokens and got the Jet lion.
My grandad used to collect all the toys you could get from Corn Flakes. The dinky cars, and all that.
