    Bubble Wrap has really declined, well hollow and cheap these days. I can't believe people don't buy the unofficial version, Styrofoam packing pellets instead, they display much better.

    Some worthy nominees. What kid or adult for that matter doesn't like popping bubble wrap. Hoping for Transformers.

    It's hard to believe toys like Little People and Uno aren't automatically in the HoF. Some things shouldn't even need to be voted on.

    Here's hopin'. TF has missed out for years in that hall of fame,

    Gotta watch out for bubble wrap though. Cardboard box and Stick already got in, and they're pulling for bubble wrap from the inside/

    This list is atrocious; bubble warp isn't toy and it's not even reusable ( and I say it as someone who likes bubble warp), D&D is more of a board game then a toy and the same goes for the clue, UNO is a card game, coloring books and swing are toys?! They should have toy lists divide by type of toy and gender (yeah, call me sexist for playing more with barbie as little girl).

    I'm honestly surprised it isn't already in the hall of fame 0.o

    Aaaaaand, I think D&D might win this one. Just a hunch.

    Dungeons and Dragons is blowing away the vote. Thankfully, Transformers is in a distant second. C\'mon folks! If every member on TFW2005 voted, we\'d push the vote waaaaayyy ahead of the other contenders...and gain a lot of ground on D&D.

    I like both TFs and D&D, but D&D seems so far ahead it almost looks a bit suspicious...

    Don't forget about the blanket. Blanket and Bubble Wrap go way back.

    UNPOPULAR OPINION: Dungeons & Dragons deserves it more. D&D pretty much singlehandedly invented an entire genre of play (the tabletop RPG) and its fingerprints and DNA are all over video games from Mass Effect to World of Warcraft to Pokemon Go.

    D&D changed the world in a way very very few playthings do. The idea of "experience points" and "leveling up"? That's D&D. The idea of the tank/healer/hitter playstyle? Fighter/Cleric/Magic User. Straight out of 1st Edition D&D.
