The PopCulteer
November 15, 2013
Last Tuesday we promised you more pictures from Where The Toys Are, in Canonsburg, Penssylvania, and today we deliver. However, we’re not quite done yet. Today we bring you photos of Western-themed Toys, Barbies and girl’s toys and some general coolness that we saw around the store, but we are going to extend this photo essay to three parts, and bring you even more next Tuesday in The PopCult Toybox.
You can see part one of this photo essay, focusing on Captain Action and Major Matt Mason, here. You will also see video of my nephew Gino with Lil, the Border Collie and mascot of Where The Toys Are. Gino also snapped the photo of KISS dolls that you see at the top of this post, and you’ll see a couple more of his photos Tuesday when we look at Trucks, Space Toys, Robots and Superheroes. But now, let’s get on with the pics…
Upon entering the store, you are greeted by The Cartwrights, of “Bonanza” fame
A very cool, huge stagecoach. I’m guessing it’s by Hartland.
A classic Marx playset
Marx 12′” figures on the top, with Star Wars, Transformers and all kinds of cool stuff below
The Marx Buckboard with Thunderbolt the horse (and a few other horses in there, too)
They just don’t make ’em like this anymore
It’s not all boy’s toys at Where The Toys Are, check out the stuff they have for girls
Lots of Dawn Dolls and Little Kiddles in this display case
Barbies and Kens and more
More Barbies, and a stray Dorothy, too
Yet another display case full of vintage wonderments
You could just stare at the cases for hours
Even the upper shelf/loft is crammed with coolness
This shot looks like a scene from “E.T.” Sure enough, he’s in there
There’s loads of cool stuf at almost every turn
We leave you with a wider shot, with all of KISS plus James Bond and Man From U.N.C.L.E. above them
