those wonderful toys

Ever since I started collecting toys in college I have been seeking the story behind the toys themselves, which eventually led to becoming a toy designer myself. And although many things have changed in the online world over the past 15+ years, I'm proud that my research and archives of past toy lines have been online in some form ever since. Even though I stopped collecting awhile ago, I want to make sure that this content will continue to be accessible to collectors, fans, and historians. With that in mind, I have moved it over to a better place: Action Figure Insider, the toy site that I cofounded in 2005 with my good friend Daniel Pickett. Click the banner to go there.

Outside of the famed Super Powers Archive, many of these pages will not be updated but instead will stand as a historical document of what the online toy community was like in the early 1990s. All of my articles and special content will now be part of AFI's Features section.

If you are interested in some of the highlights of this research, I've linked to a few articles below, along with the main archives.
