Chances are if you're reading this and you were a young person in the 1980's, you have a special place in your heart (if not your wallet) for the toys from that era. Of course there was Star Wars and its sequels, but licensed toys became yuuuuge (sorry) in the 80's, with companies going so far as creating movies and TV shows specifically to sell toy lines (some might argue we still have this problem). He-Man and the Masters of the Universe, Thundercats, G.I. Joe, Transformers, M.A.S.K., we couldn't collect them all then with the pittance of allowance SOME of us got (some of us weren't so lucky), but now that we have paychecks and eBay, there's nothing to stop us, BWAHAHAHAHA! Except spouses. And credit limits. And shelf space. But all that be darned, we're still trying. Join the Squad as we talk it out therapy-style with special guest and fellow toy nut Reese on this week's Vegas Toy SquadCast!
