What was an item that you coveted as a child and why?

I wanted a mermaid's tail so I could be a beautiful sea creature.

I did, incidentally, grow up to be a sort of sea creature.

My Pokemon and Yu-gi-oh cards! Tbf I was right, made over £400 selling them this year (and they weren't in good condition at all). I liked them because it was such an instrumental part of my childhood and probably the first thing that felt valuable in my ownership.

mother's approval 😭 nah really I can't remember ever wanting any specific material item, always thought that I deserved whatever I got - no hopes and dreams and such

An r/c hovercraft, Super Mario Bros. 3, an SNES.. I got all of those things. (I feel like I begged for a long time for the SMB3.) I can't explain why I coveted any of those things. :d
