Considering it's Christmastime, I figured this would be a great opportunity to discuss the Netflix original documentary series "The Toys That Made Us". It covers the stories of the various toy franchises throughout it's ups and downs. I thought it was a fantastic series. The toys that are covered are Star Wars, Barbie, He-Man, G.I. Joe, Star Trek, Transformers, Lego, Hello Kitty, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Power Rangers, Professional Wrestling, and of course My Little Pony. 

What are your thoughts on the series? I also posted a poll asking which episode do/did you have toys from. You can select more than one. You can even post pictures of your collections if you want (sans MLP as there's a thread for that here.

My favorite episodes were the Season 3 episodes focusing on TMNT, Power Rangers, MLP and Wrestling.

Of course I have an MLP collection, but I also have a few Power Rangers figures and WWF Hasbro figures.

Here's my Red Ranger figures from the Super Megaforce line. I have Mighty Morphin through Wild Force.

I’ve only watched the Star wars episode of the show but I liked it quite a lot. I have a sizable collection of Star Wars stuff and it occupies most of my apartment. I’m a Star Wars toy addict and I don’t deny it. I’ve posted pics on the forums before but I feel kind of sheepish about it so I don’t like to do it often.
