How could I forget to mention fischertechnik. It was the third member of the three most popular toys in my childhood, next to Playmobil and Lego.

Other than Playmobil and Lego I have not seen toy fischertechnik for years, but I occasionally recognize their non-toy fixings.

Fischer was the most prolific German inventor with 570 patents, who amongst other things invented the plastic wall plug.
