I can't say I enjoy the thought of paying 20 20 dollars to look at someone else's toys but it's nice that it exists.

Sounds cool!
The VMFA had an exhibit "Toys of the 50s, 60s, and 70s". I don't remember how much it cost, but it was absolutely delightful. Not just for the nostalgia rush, but it was informative and gave some insightful cultural context. It had a really great exhibit book too!
I've never been to the Strong Museum of Play, but lots of upstate NY family and friends recommend it. Among other things, the Strong does the Toy Hall of Fame. It is on my todo list to visit it one day. -
I was at the first Mego Meet at the toy museum in Wheeling WV. I know toy museums can be fun but nearly 20 dollars seems like a lotComment

There's a toy museum in Rochester, NY called the Strong Museum of Play that's well worth the price of admission, whatever it is now. It has the hall of fame of toys in it, so a lot of stuff I don't have, but enough that I do that I feel strangely vindicated.Comment

Yea, $20 smackers seems like a ripoff
They should do a Museum donation fee strictly up to each visitor
People with loose cash (especially if they are impressed and emotional) might give even more than $20 bucks
Less fortunate people should be allowed to give what they can.
Setting a standard admission fee which is on the high side to most people comes off as snotty and exclusive.
Guessing it wont be around longComment
