MAKE Round-Up of 2008 Toy Fair

By Gizmodo US Edition on February 22, 2008 at 6:30 AM


The guys over at MAKE had a great time at the 2008 Toy Fair, and their round-up post links to all the weird and wonderful things they found there. We’ve had a look, and collected some of their findings into a gallery. Check it out and you’ll find matchstick architecture, VEX robotic bugs, 3D mazes, crystal-growth toys, chemical building-brick sets, and the faintly worrying (and historical) “Mysto Erector.” [MAKE]
