When I was little, my favorite toy was always a toy sword. I would always be very concerned about the construction of the sword and it's structural integrity and it's feel. I hated the cheap, soft plastic, hollow swords. They always bent when you hit something with them, and they felt light and flaccid, and cheap. I always liked the nice, solid ones. They were always injection molded hard plastic, with a glossy blade and a matte handle. They had a good balance to them and felt active in the hand. Eventually I graduated to wood, and then to metal (since I always wanted a better sword), and from stainless steel and welded tang to high carbon steel with a peind tang.
I also always liked forts. My bed throughout most of high school was a permanent fort with a blanket tied up as a curtain since I shared a room with my brother. Now I'm building monkey bars in my room, and I only have the frame and one bar built but it gives a fort kinda feel to my room.
12 year old me would love my room.
