Toy Hall of Fame 2012 Inductees
They got in just before the steroid era … oops, wrong HOF …
Just the two … you can check out the rest … Hot Wheels made it in last year and one you will never guess is actually a toy and got in last year – BLANKET.
Yea, that cloth thing you sleep under – who knew it was a toy? All this time I’ve just been huddled underneath it … if I only had an imagination … stupid, stupid, stupid!
So, next time when the kids clamor for a toy run, just drop them off at Bed, Bath & Beyond.
Of course, they also added STICK in 2008.
I was sure that got in the first ballot back in 9876 BC but I guess stick annoyed a lot of voters by beating on people, suppressing the huddled masses and working for the MAN for the the last 11,000 years so it took a while.
Cardboard box made in 2005 in case you wanted to be a wisenheimer. 🙂
What’s great is they both have great theme songs:

When Log makes it in all will be right in the world. After all, it’s better than bad, it’s good!
It’s big, it’s heavy, it’s wood!
Star Wars Action Figures were the first things I remember playing with as a kid. This year was the first year BobbyJack ever showed any interest in them. With the big Cars dry spell, we started a pretty decent collection. I can’t believe how much more you can pose the modern ones compared to the 4 sometimes 5 points of articulation mine had. If Mattel doesn’t want my money, Hasbro will be sure to take it.
Fire?
Did Bubble Wrap ever make the cut?
Wonder if we will see Star Wars dominoes to commemorate the event, eh.
