The show needed more infos about the toys and fewer interviews

I wanted to learn so much more about the toys . Which GI Joe or He-Man was the rarest? Which sold more? The least popular?

They didn't even mention the somewhat unique waist articulation of the GI figures and how the elastic broke after a few years. Leaving most kids with handicapped figures.

I would take that over the forced humour they tried to squeeze out the interviews.

The target audience already know the toys. I mean, there's probably a place for a toy-centric documentary. But I really enjoyed learning how these "corporate" products were just ad-hoc collaborations by a group of average, middle aged guys.
