Plastic Games of the Sixties

Back in the day childhood was full of brilliant games and sets.

There were so many in the Sixties I find it hard to remember them all.

Fascination was one. Two players each got a plastic hand-held maze tray and the first to get a ball bearing to the end would light up a small light on a stand. Oh what fun! Fascination sums up my tender years and I still have a set.

Crossfire was one too. A huge table-top game, in which steel balls were fired at a rolling puck. The balls were loaded into plastic pistols. I remember playing it so much with mates that zi got a blister on my inner trigger finger! I still have a board but no other equipment.

Casdon Soccer was another game I liked. Endorsed by Bobby Charlton, it was a sort of subbuteo on a plastic pitch. Instead of flicking each player twisted knobs to make ruddered players turn and kick. Great fun and a tough chunk of plastic, which has easily survived right up to press. I've owned a few.

I could go on. Which games do you recall?
