The Toys That Made US

Enjoyed the Star Wars episode, and I'll catch the others soon!

Watched the first two episodes and really enjoyed the stories. Laughed a lot at Barbie's torrid past.

Yeah I provided some stuff for the SW segment and I think season 2 has a Mego thing because I gave them some fun stuff.

Man, I even looked for another thread first. Well go here and post and let this one die:

Anyone else watching? First episode is about Star Wars toys, natch, and the second is about Barbie. Haven't gotten any further but it's pretty good so far. Of course, Plastic Galaxy offers a more comprehensive history of SW toys, but this is a good starting point for the uninitiated.

There's some salty language, so it's not super kid friendly, I'm wondering whether or not to watch the Barbie ep with my 10 year-old. I had no idea about the slightly unsavory origin of the figure! Pretty interesting though.

Megos and ReMegos are pictured in little vignettes but there is no episode about them in this first batch of four episodes. I imagine they will hit on it in 2018, and was curious who here, if anyone, was approached by the show for that eventuality.

It's on Netflix, so check it out!

Brian mentioned that he worked on it.
