Stickers with crap, horrible chewing gum, I had loads of the Batman movie ones, and then the Simpsons cards where you could make a big picture of Springfield crazy golf course on the reverse if you matched them up.

stuff like the Marvel Secret Wars stickers.

Nintendo games, the NES was a thing of ugly 80's design beauty, blowing in the carts to make them work.

Nostalgia forms your future.
