That was really interesting! I’ve often had ideas for new toys and games, but circumstance has never allowed me to actually _do_ anything with them. Except for one, courtesy of Google and JavaScript.
I invented a new word game and had the intention of creating a version for each of my adult children (I made it so you can have an easier game which kids with a reasonable amount vocabulary can play, and it’s easy to add the difficult set to it to become the complete game). However, to make it physically would require around 300 cards per set and with arthritic fingers, I realised that was a no go (yay for circumstances 🤦🏻♀️). I did consider getting a printer to do it for me but considering the price of blank business cards alone, let alone there needing to be a difference in looks between the cards for the two versions, I realised how expensive it would get!
So instead I googled up some JavaScript for a near enough program that can be embedded into a web page (only requires a browser, not the internet), I fiddled with it, turning it into a successful game which can have the choice of easy or full set made with only a click of a mouse! Takes up less than a Mb and it’s really easy to play. The only thing you need is a piece of paper and a writing implement of your choice! And someone to keep score (I couldn’t be bothered to find the Js for that 😅).

I feel like he doesn’t fully answer the transformers question. The person already recognizes the intricacy of the design. They want to know how the design and manufacturing process can make so many, such conceptually complicated transforming toys so rapidly, at such a good price. It a really good question because, unlike, say, Furby, this is not a toy that has the same basic shape and style every time you make a new design and people are unlikely to buy multiples of the same one, so there has to be a wide diversity of complex toys cranked out rather fast. It is quite impressive to think of how that process has to just keep working. I wonder how many skilled designers that can design stuff like this they need and how much AI can help with the complex geometry involved. With so many moving parts, safety must also be quite complex.

6:26 Another recent craze/bubble is the ‘video game auction’ craze, over the last few years; it had existed in the background for a while, only to be thrust into the spotlight by a major ratings company and auction house. They inflated the bubble through dishonest means, and only recently has that bubble popped and the craze died down – with prices for video games now at a much more reasonable level.
Of course, there’s also scams like NFTs and crypto that have been crazes for a bit.

A lot more than that little reductive and judgmental thing he said went into the Beanie Baby fad. Kinda weird to show up as a “Toy Expert” and then spout a half butt answer a question that whole documentaries have been made about. “I don’t get it either!” Then maybe do some research? Wild to be so flip with Beanie Babies and then happily show off some McDonalds toys like they’re war bonds… I could have given a better answer in the time and I *barely* care.
Also, Lego is the one of the LEAST sustainable toys? It’s constant mass production of NEW material plastic to get those sharp, foot bruising edges and that perfect snap. Just b/c people can resell it doesn’t make it all better. (Lego was?? is??? trying to figure out how to make something with recycled plastic, tho.)
Wood isn’t super sustainable for mass production either…I hate to break the state of lumber and deforestation to this dino, tho… He got halfway to saying that simple toys that last a long time and that people only have a few of and then pass along are the most sustainable. I like to think we’ll move towards that more and more, esp when it comes to toys for young kids who legit do not NEED a ton of toys they’re only going to like for a short time.

The reason why Legos are so expensive isn’t because they’re charging you for the cost of the cheap plastic they use. You’re paying for the precision and tolerances of the finely tuned machinery they use to enable a Lego piece made today being able to fit a piece made in the 1960’s.

To expand on the Beanie Baby craze, Ty’s obsession with perfection created a series of rolling “revisions” among the various Beanie Baby sku’s and helped further explode the idea of the speculative market. Almost unwittingly he had created a scene where you had “first edition” or “misprint” or what kind of ear tag and how it was applied would shift and alter the rarity and valuation of a Beanie Baby and that variability made the collecting of Beanie Babies so feverish. Now you’ll see products push limited edition and special colorways but with Beanie Babies it was more pervasive which meant there was a separation of the casual consumer who just thought they were cute toys and a knowledge class of “experts” or much more avid collectors who knew the differences that most didn’t, Beanie Babies very organically created its own culture and economy and while it didn’t last forever is certainly something other toy makers have tried to recreate artificially.

I think one of the major changes in toys in 50 years will be the 3D printing. It’s getting more common to find people that have one and good ones are becoming less expensive and the product coming out looks better and better every year. Only a couple years ago they had super thick ridges and now they’re looking far smoother. They’re also doing multiple colors and different types of materials.
I saw a thing on Dam Savage’s Tested channel that had a company that is doing 3D printed life portraits that print in color and look amazing. It’s still in early stages, but in a few years that kind of tech could become something really great.
There’s a lot of designers that didn’t have luck setting up a toy company that create and sell files so you can print their toys like Tecco toys.
I think eventually these printers will be cheaper and easier to use and even a kid could learn to use them.

Good questions. Great responses. I’ve been playing and collecting since 1978. That said, I prefer the term “big kid” over “kidult.” And I’m not alone. Happi Holidays!

The problem with toys and AI is security. Even big companies get hacked into and I don’t think parents want to expose their children to a machine that’s gonna be collecting all kinds of data about the child and using it not just to “play”, but also to store and sell and potentially get it to the hands of hackers or worse, salespeople or the government.
Ideally, I’d say we’d just have to wait to a point where you could run an AI in a small device and 50 years seems very feasible to me. However, I suspect parents would just cave in and accept the lack of security. Just like a few years ago parents wouldn’t just hand a smartphone to a child and now every kid has one.

How can a huge toy company like Hasbro lose so much money on their toys? Their financial statements are horrible in the toy department. (Dungeons and Dragons and Magic the Gathering are making them loads of money though)

The recalled Boba Fett action figure with the shooting missile is worth 10s of thousands of dollars 😅
