Anyone watch this? Four episode series, featuring Kenner's Star Wars, Hasbro's GI Joe, Mattel's Barbie, and Mattel's Masters of the Universe.

I tried to watch it and quickly realized I'm not enough of a nerd to sit through an entire episode of people talking about toys. 
It does seem like a good watch for anyone into that sort of thing, though.

I watched the Star Wars episode and was thoroughly entertained. I'm looking forward to the rest.

Binged it. Loved it.
Especially with how they came up with Battle Cat

They were all entertaining. The toy creators ranged from serious artists to guys winging it and being surprised by their success.
The only toy that I was interested in was the original G.I. Joe. I wasn't let down by that episode (and actually choked up a little at one point).

I didn’t know it was broken down by episodes.
I guess the Barbie picture kept me out.
Now that I know there is an episode dedicated to Star Wars toys which was my childhood in the late 70’s and early 80’s, I will be watching that one this evening.
Probably my favorite Christmas memory as a kid was sneaking down the hall on Christmas Eve and seeing this beautiful bastard fully assembled in the glow of the Christmas Tree lights:

It's interesting. Barbie had a smutty origin story.

Will watch!

I like the episodes. There are suppose to be more coming this month.

Should be a Transformers episode, I would imagine.
Posted on 1/2/18 at 4:53 pm to Fewer Kilometers
I plan on watching the He-Man episode. Never got into the other toys listed.

Uh yeah. It was fricking awesome and I may watch the He-Man one again. I skipped Barbie but I'll probably watch it too.
I loved it. Perfect length for each episode too. Star Wars felt like the most informative, He-Man the funniest and GI-Joe was the one that I actually could've watched at least another hour on.
Have they listed who the next four are yet?
I'm guessing Transformers, Cabbage Patch, Care Bears and its a toss up on number 4. Thundercats? MASK? Superpowers? My Little Pony(That would make 3 of the 4 girl toys though).
I hope its not TMNT. They weren't really 80's toys.

That he-man crew was the shite
And that Barbi lady who sent in the undercover operatives to find out about Jem was a badas.
And Kenner was a dumbass for not writing that $10k check to Lucas

Loved how she talked shite about the crew that followed her and allowed the Bratz to get a foothold. "My crew would have destroyed them."
