In this weekend's video we take a look at 8 toy concepts that were never put into production, the toys remained a kid's dream from watching it's picture in a toy catalogue. But these pictures showcasing the prototypes, first shots and other concept drawings can give us an idea of what the toy could have been. Loads of customiser have been creating reproductions of these holy grail toys for vintage toy collectors of Thundercats, Gi Joe, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, The Real Ghostbusters, Masters Of The Universe, Jurassic Park, Transformers & Star Wars!

    First YouTube binge worthy channel to come along in a good while. Thanks. You're not annoying or pretentious and have stuff worth talking about.. That's frickin rare bro
  • Can I just say, It is so great to hear someone use Ludlow's actual name when it comes to the Lost world villain. Such an underrated character.
  • @benbevins5005
    We wish we got that Unicron toy back then. RIP Orson Welles.
  • @UltimateViper
    I had a Unicron prototype from the 80s. I didn't know it until I grew up and found out about it. My uncle worked for Kenner, Hasbro, Tonka, and a couple other toy companies throughout the last 50 years. My aunt knew how much I liked Transformer and gave it to me.

    I remember the first Tyco GI Joe train set from early to mid 80s, I have a friend that had it. Never knew about the second one.
  • @NESADDICT
    This is pretty awesome Ed! I hope you do more of these! I watched the whole thing! 🙌🙌
  • @user-vf4hg2ev8e
    I'm so glad I came across this channel, I love learning about the history of toys.
  • @pr_tr4p_g4wd20
    Not going to lie that Muta-Party wagon would’ve been awesome to have as kid.
  • @KJ-tz7vc
    I love the detail that the Muta-Party Wagon has Metalhead's head!
  • @NARC.1
    Love this, Ed! Well done
  • The Gigantasaur prototype actually rotted away due to the materials it was made from and was thrown away. This was of course back before something like that could be auctioned off and potentially reproduced for preservation.
  • @AtariLegend
    Absolutely fantastic. You had me glued to the screen. I love this stuff. Great research, great history, perfect editing. Ed, for me this is your best vid and as far as i am concerned, this stuff can go to Netflix. Congratulations. Well done!
  • @ToyKennections
    This video topic is an amazing idea! Not too many videos out there with this particular amount of knowledge and info on unmade toys. The MOTU Power of Grayskull line would be a cool idea for Mattel to revisit at some point.
  • Fun video Ed! It's amazing to see how many toys don't see a release even nowadays. The modern TMNT series/movies for example.
  • @supahottfire
