Netflix is Going to Stir a Lot of Nostalgia With The Toys That Made Us

As a child of the 80’s, I grew up with a veritable smorgasbord of action figures being marketed towards me. Transformers, G.I. Joe, Star Wars, He-Man, Ghostbusters, etc… The list can go on and on but I feel like I should get to the point.
Netflix full well knows the power of nostalgia, what with their reboot of “Fuller House” and the smash success of “Stranger Things”. Now they’re going to capitalize on that same nostalgia but not in the world of fiction. Rather, they’re creating their own original documentary series titled “The Toys That Made Us”, which will explore the stories and foundations of some of the aforementioned figures.
There’s no official release date but the Facebook page states that we’ll be seeing this eight-part series in 2018.
