My book turns five years-old today.
Now out-of-print, WORLD'S GREATEST TOYS! was published on October 25, 2007. On my own 5th birthday -- way back in nineteen-amummbledy -- my parents gifted me several Mego action figures (I still call 'em dolls) and those Super-Heroes changed my life. Some thirty years later, I devoted several years to creating an obsessively thorough examination of my favorite childhood toys. So Mego really changed my life twice.
In the spirit of honoring the book today, I plan to post some never-before-seen behind-the-scenes pictures of the world's most comprehensive toy tome on Facebook today. I will mark these images as "Public" so anyone who subscribes to my updates can see 'em.
Thanks to all who supported the book over the past nine (nine!) years… from inception in 2003, to publication in 2007, to OOP status in 2012.
