Exactly one year ago, as the pandemic began in earnest, I launched an expiremental YouTube series with a mission to celebrate inventors, promote creativity and connection and champion play. I love the toy industry and the people who gave us all so much fun. Seventeen videos later and I am still loving the challenge and the fun of telling these epic toy stories. I hope you will join me for the fun and if you haven't already, please subscribe to the channel at the link below. Here's my latest video on one of the most fantastic pieces of plastic every created... ROCK 'EM SOCK 'EM ROBOTS!
