For me it was an electric train. I wanted an electric train so bad. I asked for one for 4 years straight. Never got it.
What was that one Christmas present you wanted so badly but never received...

When I was very young I really wanted the Omega Supreme Transformer(http://www.oafe.net/yo/tf_omsup.php) but never got it because it was pretty expensive for an action figure.
There's one hole in every revolution, large or small. And it's one word long.. people. No matter how big the idea they all stand under, people are small and weak and cheap and frightened. It's people that kill every revolution.
Easy Bake Oven - My parents bought me the cupcake mixes, but not the oven, as if that was supposed to suffice.
Buddy, you think you look strong? You’re wearing a cape.
When I was a kid my parents actually found that at a garage sale and bought it for me. It worked and everything. Just a few years ago I sold all my transformers including Omega Supreme. I made enough to take my family on a vacation.Originally Posted by OchrisO
To actually answer the question in the original post, I wanted this for a long time and never got it:

I have almost every other He-Man toy they made. In fact, I still have them all boxed up in my parents garage.
Me too
A red rifle bb gun but mom said I'd shoot my eye out!
Pearls. If you know me, you know I'm not one to be wanting things but when I was married, I wanted some pearls more than anything. And before you men get all haughty and start griping about not being mind readers let me say I was completely clear about this. "Hey, I want some pearls. Why don't you get me pearls for Christmas/anniversary/birthday. Look, ________ has a sale on pearls; you know I want some. I WANT PEARLS!" Absolutely nothing vague or ambiguous about that, is there? He never got me any.
People love frozen yogurt. I don't know what to tell you.
why why why????? they can't be too expensive. Even I can afford them, I brought them to my wife from Paris, they are dirt cheap there. You are MADE for pearls. If ladies can be compared to jewels (which they are), you ARE a pearl.
Ask not what bears can do for you, but what you can do for bears. (razz)

Silly Bear, I must tell you about my ex one day.
And thanksI guess i *am* a pearl...I annoy you for so long you have to pay attention to me

never heard pearls were annoying - another pun or allusion I am missing?
Ladies are jewels. For example, Lisa is an obvious garnet, and Letti an emerauld, while my Lady Linda - a typical ruby.
And, while we are talking about the obvious and typical, am I right in surmising that your ex was an obvious and typical asshole?

I'm sorry but you were being far too subtle. I really wish women would just say what they mean.
Oh...
I can't believe I'm in before a "necklace" reference came up.
This isn't totally relevant since it isn't about Christmas, but in general I've never been given flowers and it makes me sad. I love flowers. And like 80% of my female friends are like "Omq I hatE flowerz they r pOiNtLeSs n just DIE anywayz I am going 2 b UnIqUe and wEiRd n say I don't like flowers." And they've all gotten them. Alright I'm done complaining and making fun of my friends BUT really why can't I just meet a nice boy who is old fashioned and buys me flowers?
I had my infatuations, but we both know in our hearts who is the sole love of my short, bright life.
Ditto!
I always wanted an American Girl doll when I was little but they were way to expensive so I never got one
Only the gentle are ever really strong.
I have always wanted a canoe!
HAHHA! Please note I purposefully did not say "necklace" at all.I'm sorry but you were being far too subtle. I really wish women would just say what they mean.

I used to be one of those girls who said I didn't want flowers. Then I got jealous when I saw other girls get flowers and stopped saying it. I have gotten flowers a couple times now and they are great.
Heather, I hate how Mattel ruined the American Girl franchise. It breaks my heart. They retired Samantha, and I can't forgive that.
Speaking of which, I wanted the brass bed for my Samantha doll. It was pretty expensive ($60 as I recall) so my mom never bought it. She said I could have the bed for another one of the dolls (they were all cheaper) but I wanted Samantha's bed, damn it. It was for her. I wouldn't put her in Kirsten's clothes, why would I get her Kirsten's bed? I took my American Girl dolls seriously.
I'm so jealous! And how could they retire Samantha? She was one of the originals.

They also retired Kirsten and Felicity. Bastards. I actually have a post about this in the D&B thread. Mattel also instituted a "girl of the year" doll, who is available for one year. New doll every year. If that isn't a horribly diabolic thing to market to little girls, I don't know what is.
PS: Those dolls are $100.
I know, that's a crazy high price for a doll! That's why I never got one

I got my husband a T-Shirt with the Flagpole picture and it says "I Triple Dog Dare Ya!"
Does whatever a spiderman does.
