Today on the Toy Power Podcast we enter a world beyond imagination and look at the amazing work of a toy legend – the enigma of Marvin Glass. You may not know the name, but we guarantee you’ve played with a toy that this designer/genius inventor has influenced. From iconic board games, action features and innovation, Marvin Glass and Associates has helped to influence the toy industry for over 40 years. This epic tome written by Bill Paxton (not the one you’re thinking of!) details Marvin’s amazing life and career. Big thanks to Bill for providing us the book to review! There’s also some toy headlines to talk through from Zeta Toys, NECA, Disney Plus (cue the karaoke machine) and a big reveal about the amazing Plastic Crack documentary from our good friend Guillmero Olivio. We round it out with some Perfect Modern toys from Cybertron, The Moon, the MCU and the NYC sewers. We also debut a new podcaster Scotty who features on our Patreon.
