A fun 1980’s Micro Machines is online HERE. Back when Micro machines was part of Galoob before being bought by Hasbro and mostly disappeared. 🙁

Too bad they don’t sell the “Radiator Springs” painted desert rock display.

Pretty cool – not just a scale model of an 1980’s arcade but actually working toggle and A/B buttons! And with 4 classic games + Stranger Things related games …  

This display doesn’t need any audio – when random kids walk by, they start singing  … well, you know … That’s branding! BTW, Baby Shark has not jumped the shark.  🙂 Er, for those who do not know, it is the duty of every adult who has heard BABY DHARK to make sure it is […]

Battat has a nice series of small plastic construction toys with run playsets. You can check out the full catalog here (Pocket Toys start on around Page 76).  

How all our playrooms should look …

Pretty fun to know … the history of toy company’s 1836 to 2014 (hasn’t been updated) but still fun to look at … Brio still around! Binney & Smith became Crayola – you might have heard of them. See it HERE at ToyArts.

If you;re collecting Nintendo Amiibo’s, you can check out the nice display at the Nintendo NYC Store at Rockefeller Center. Or a nice online DB HERE.

Sadly, this is all that remains of the great and grand Toys R Us. … That first time as a kid when you stepped into a TRU – like Disneyland for toys … But now, it’s come DOWN, DOWN, DOWN to this … Or “They put a Rite Aid in the middle of Kroeger?” Thanks […]

When the company that owns the TRU name said they were going to launch some mini stores, it will now be inside Kroger stores at 600 locations but sadly, it looks only a new aisle? You can read more at Forbes. Thanks for the link and heads up, “Big Bad A-Man’s Dad.”
