Paul - Also, what's your thoughts on dinosaurs? The Mattel Jurassic World and Camp Cretaceous stuff? I dipped my toe into these unknown waters this summer and just started selling this week - and they've gone. It's the retired products that simply fly.
Red Herring - I'd like to ask if you would be interested in featuring my unique LEGO IDEAS submission "BASEMENT & SEWERAGE" in a video on your YouTube channel? The project has already gained more than 4,600 supporters.
Alden - Hi, I’m new to investing in LEGO, and I am wondering what your stance is on the wooden minifigure as an investment. I know it is about to retire in a few days, and I was wondering if you believe that this is a bullish set or if you believe it will remain static.

Listener Questions
Paul P - Anyone heard of the latest news - "design your own City set"? How would this affect investing and the future values of sets? Thoughts anybody?
Scott F - I was wondering if you heard any rumors about Lego starting a Collectible Minifigures Line for Star Wars? Could something in the contracts have changed that might lead to a CMF line?

Customer Reviews
Great Podcast
Two man children you can’t help be captivated by. Strick and Motyl keep you updated on all the latest toy news with great banter and nostalgic flashbacks. Keep up the great job gentleman.
Incredibly knowledgeable & entertaining
This podcast combines a love for toys with a honest discussion of the business, history and the investing that happens around toys. The show succeeds in being entertaining regardless of the topic which can be a difficult line to walk.
I discovered this podcast based on their great Lego investing YouTube videos which I highly recommend.
Amazing Show!
I have been an avid listener of the Toy Talk Guys for a while now. They are my go to first listen if the day when I see a new episode drop. They talk about a wide variety of toy collecting encompassing everything from Lego to obscure 90s kids meal premiums. They also make a point of fan interaction which is awesome. Absolutely one of my favorite podcasts. Thanks for the show guys!
