Can't wait to see the rest of the episodes! I'm also really really really hoping they come out with a TMNT one!
Casey Jones you better, watch your speed
Trouble ahead, trouble behind
And you know that notion just crossed my mind

I hope so too.   At the very least to make your life complete.   If they do they might come calling to your house and collection lol

A Mattel Hot Wheels / Matchbox episode would be awesome.  Micronauts / Mego would be phenomenal!

The first time I heard the term "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles", I laughed out loud for 5 min, and thought it was the lamest, most insipid thing ever.  Now look.  (And don't tell anyone but last year I went to a TMNT panel and sat way up front. Shhh....) ::)

Here in the UK the government were so worried about the word "Ninja" in the title that they forced the UK channel to change it to Teenage Mutant Hero Turtles.

Oh, I know what...I want to see an episode on toys that got banned.  Like those giant marble clackers.

They were great; those were popular when I was a toddler/elementary school-aged kid and they were a family gathering tradition.  I don't know of too many people who don't think giant lawn darts are awesome, and knowing said darts could fairly easily wound/kill moderate-sized animals made them all the more fun  :P

I've watched most of the new episodes: didn't see the Hello Kitty ep. yet (and haven't watched Barbie yet either) but the rest were great.  The amount of focus they spend on the Japanese side of Transformers was fascinating, and the Star Trek episode (which I didn't care about & have zero attachments/sentimental value to that franchise) is really interesting.  I have to re-watch the 1st season, but it seemed like season 2 was a bit more humorous.  Either way, great series!!

If you love toys and toy history, you'll want to join Brian Volk-Weiss (show creator/director) and the TTTMU team Robin Henry (executive producer), Ben Frost (writer/editor), and Rich Mayerik (producer, toy collector) for the same brand of fun and informative toy-talk you've come to love from the hit Netflix series. Discussion will include a Q&A on what brought The Toys That Made Us to life, what the future holds, and maybe even a surprise or two along the way.
