About Toy-Ventures Magazine:
Did you miss print toy collector magazines? So did we and that’s why we created Toy-Ventures magazine in 2020.
Toy-Ventures magazine is an old-school full-colour print toy collector-focused publication featuring toys and action figures from the 1960s to the 1990s.
From the people who brought “Rack Toys: Cheap, Crazed Playthings” and “Knock-Offs: Totally Unauthorized Action Figures” and the Brick Mantooth YouTube channel, Toy-Ventures is a “deep dive” into vintage and retro toys.
Each issue of Toy-Ventures magazine will feature collector guides, rare photographs, interviews, and articles by some of the toy experts in the Collector Field. It’s a quarterly celebration of our childhood friends!
Photos and toys in this issue include:
Redbox Batman, Schaper Sky Guy, Jigglers, L’il Loggers, Redbox Astronaut, Tonka Steel Monsters, Gor King of the Terrons, Collegeville costumes, The Shield, Metal Face, Ben Cooper costumes, Mego Superman, Mego Lone Ranger, Talking Super Softies, Mego Spider-Man,
