Lisa allowed her husband to run it while she was a stay at home mother for a while and he's the one along with his mistress that also worked there ran the company into the ground and mistreated the employees. Lisa gained control again but her ex still claims he created Lisa Frank.

Barbie and Ken’s named after the creators children? I mean it’s a little odd, but they aren’t really modeled after them, just their names. But nobody ever talks about in a big discussion about how Barbie has never been original. The Bild Lilli doll, a German doll was basically the bases for Barbie and ended up being bought out by Mattel. The character was created first for a comic, and the thing Barbie used to be criticized for (unrealistic body proportions) was due to the fact Bild Lilli was basically a “a golddigger, exhibitionist, and floozy" and was shown without clothing and focused on her body; ironic how Bratz was called inappropriate for kids when Barbie was born from a gag gift for adults that I think children ended up liking. But after she came out, Barbie had ripped off Gem & The Holograms (to basically get out the door before they did) and the Bratz (because they made such a big noise in the 2000’s, which is why the lawsuit, which was dumb, became a thing). I like Barbie, I actually think Barbies now are a bit more original than they used to be, since they offer more diverse body types and definitely cater to different medical conditions (like hearing issues, wheelchair users, recently Down syndrome, vitiligo, and a think a few others).

He-Man changed because Mattel didn't want him to resemble Conan not because he was originally too foreign looking. In fact Mattel originally tried to get the licensing for Conan and make Conan toys but didn't succeed. Instead they made He-Man, one of those occasions where the thing inspired from something else took on it's own life and became as popular as the property which inspired it. To add another twist to this tale, when Conan figures were finally going to be realized (not by Mattel), Mattel tried to sue the manufacturer that those toys would infringe on He-Man. The change isn't as deep or nefarious as you make it sound.

I loved Beanie Babies. Especially the cats. I loved the ones that laid flat on their bellies. My 3 favorites were Sly, the fox , Prance, the grey tabby cat, and Zip, the black and white cat. I had the 2 dragons: Magic, the white one and Scorch, the brown one. I also was given the big Scorch from my sister after having my tonsils removed. We didn't keep the tags on them though. We played with them everyday. We would put on little plays with them for my niece (older sister's daughter) when she was 2 up until 4. We ended up giving my niece all of them except for the 6 I mentioned above.

One of the funniest Simpsons episodes was when Homer installed an East Bake Oven into his car

It’s amazing how many toys from 50 years ago were really dangerous. I played with Jarts. My Mom would sit outside and watch us play. She knew better than to leave us. Had a set to make bugs. She would not let us do that alone either. It had to be plugged up. My Mom had sense. Lots of Moms did not. My cousin would bring her easy bake oven and tell my Mom that she does not need supervision. My Mom would say that you do in my house. My cousins Mom would give them the toys and leave. They were always burning themselves or getting cut or something. Just because it is for kids does not mean that it can be given to them without supervision!!

Canadian mobile rushing for tickle me elmo sounds strange but makes sense.

Thank you for posting the video. I've never heard this side of toys before.

I think a easy bake oven is great gift for kids as long as it's used under adult supervision. Me and my sister aroun 8-11 made some killer sugar cookies. We really did not need supervision at that age tho. Outside of my mother me and my sister there was no one else who knew how to cook in our family and I have been cooking since I was 7, originally wanted to go to culinary school but end up becoming a butcher. I'm 43 but I grew up with Double Dare even my Mom and Dad were hooked on the show we never missed a new episode, good times.

The cabbage patch kids are adorable, when I was a child the twinkle toes line got released and I loved them, lost mine during a move but I found some online and got me and my sister a matching pair for the memories

I remember that Po doll. 😃 I always thought it was saying, "Pat it. Pat it."

Cabbage Patch dolls were NOT “literally in every closet”. I wouldn’t buy those pucker-faced monstrosities for my girls, and I’m certain I’m not the only parent who felt the same way. The word “literally” is literally very often misused.

Whoa... I owned that Hannah Montana Pop Stars card set as a kid! I remember going through a box and finding the case for it when I was maybe 10 or so and fiddling with it for a while before putting it away... never saw it again after that. Maybe it's for the best if it had that much lead in it!

I remember the Elmo Goes To The Potty toy saying “Uh oh, who wants to die?”

Imagine being at Walmart and someone screaming “there’s the elmos” and you get trampled, lmfao

That Mike Mozart video takes me back. Still a huge fan of his. Those toy reviews were the funniest things I had seen, but I don't even know if he has a KZread channel any longer.

I used to watch him all the time as a kid. He stopped making vids a long time ago unfortunately.

When I was a kid in the late 80s I was riding my bike up and down the street, and another kid started shooting at me with his Super Soaker. This wasn't in itself harmful, but did cause me to fall off the bike and bend the wheel, as well as suffering cuts and bruises. I also had a Glo Worm toy, but thankfully I wasn't in the habit of biting and sucking toys like other kids!

I burnt a perfectly round spot in my bedroom carpet with that metal plate from the easy bake oven when I was a kid. I moved my bed over it and my mom never found out. This is the first time I have ever heard Gak was also a drug term.

I have a ty pluffie of a horse. They named him lasso, i named him horsey.

When I was a child the original Barbie styling head first came out and I had one. One night my 15 year old aunt was babysitting me and decided to use the plastic curling iron on my hair. She clicked and clicked and my hair twirled and twirled into the iron and she couldn’t get it out so she pulled it out and partially scalped me. My parents came home and it was chaos. Me and my aunt wound up at the hospital that night. Let’s just say my mom lost it. Yes I have forgiven and I’m not really sure it was the Mattel company’s fault. I do know they changed the curling iron style afterwards but it wasn’t because this incident. I did have issues with trauma to the scalp and the fact my hair would just pull out in clumps but after cortisone shots to the scalp I really don’t have anymore issues.

@DawnAYoung-vk4on That's horrible. If at 15 she didn't know to get scissors and cut the strands of hair that were stuck rather than rip the curling iron out, then she probably shouldn't have been babysitting.

You want to talk about a scary toy? Alright, remember Madballs? I recall being around nine years old and visiting a store called Buffalo Bills near my local grocery store downtown. I saw two toys that resembled Madballs, they probably were, one was green. I think it was the weekend, but definitely during daytime. I was in clear mind, and I pushed squeezed one of the two toy balls, and I swear, I heard this audio that sounded like a child screaming for his mother while possibly being haunted by a boogeyman and the mother was screaming (not at him, but because she could not find him), think of the doll scene from Poltergeist (the classic one). I know two others heard it, because two guys who looked only a few years older than I was found it hilarious, I recall one of them saying, "oh my god" and laughing. I was not ever able to identify it, but wow, it crept me out.

There's some interesting toys that I remember learning about and they're very creepy things that happened with them. For whatever reason they'll be stories always interest me.

Thanks for your Informative video there are other toys to that were hazardous to children.

Either we "had a poor choice" in toys or our parents had it out for us 🤣🤷 between me and my brothers we had every toy on this list. Must of been our taste in toys though. I remember my mom having collections of trolls and furbys

Anybody remember those clicker clackers? They were acrylic balls on a string. The goal was to click clack them together and get it going so fast that they click clacked below and above your hand that is swinging or holding the string. Like over and under. Anyway, they found out that they would basically explode or crack open and pieces could potentially get in your eyes, maybe down your throat etc. So they redesigned them and they were made with a plastic handle and the balls were smaller and plastic. Not nearly as fun or challenging. ❤️💜💚

I had two sets of the redesigned safer plastic clackers. I'd clack both of them at the same time, one in each hand. They are brilliant but noisy fidget toys of their time. I wish I'd had some of the original clackers though.

Does anybody remember those baby dolls that were supposed to be sick? (In the late 90s.. early 2000s?) the dolls checks turned red and they cried.. you had to give it medicine and they’d stop crying.. they were in a purple suit.

I'm glad my Barbie dated GI Joe

Is this video suppose to scare away children from their toys? What would happen if these stories weren't true?

I used to have a glow worm mine was like the early version because I wasn’t born when they were first released, so I got one where the cheeks just glowed and I loved it so much!

Ahhh... Who can forget the cute little glow-worm . All cuddly and a glowing head . Possessed by a demonic identity , stuffed with love and asbestos and a glowing head that wants your children's souls lit up with some harmless uranium . A perfect children's companion . 😅

Barbie, Lisa Frank, Easy Bake, Be Inspired, Hannah Montana, Make It Real, Girl Tech, American Girl, Pokémon (the trading card game) and Polly Pocket are collectible toys One episode of Dexter’s Lab (Cartoon Network) had a Cabbage Patch Kids reference which Dee Dee sees Mr. Chewy Bitems who is biting her hair much to Dexter’s dismay but she literally threw him onto the ground and kicked him with her foot

#3: Super Soaker Attacks In hot summer months, super soakers can be a great way for children to cool down and get some physical activity. There’s nothing like the threat of being hit by a stream of cold water to get a group of kids laughing, screaming and running around. The thing is, super soakers should only be used with adult supervision to make sure that they’re being played with appropriately, safely and in a way that is fun for everyone involved. Sure, it’s just water, but at high enough pressures, it can still hurt and become a tool for bullying. Worse, the contents can be switched for another liquid. There have been several cases of people filling super soakers with bleach or other chemical irritants, resulting in severe burns. #2: The Dangers of Lego There are few toys that have enjoyed more enduring popularity or inspired more children than Lego. Unfortunately, these little interconnecting plastic blocks enjoy such universal popularity that, sadly, they often find their way into the hands of children who don’t meet the minimum age requirement for safe play. And as little hands always do, they put those lego blocks into their mouths where they pose a serious choking hazard - especially the smaller pieces. Choking is among the leading causes of injury and death in small children, which is why it’s so important to supervise infants and toddlers at play - and respect age recommendations. Over the years, there have been a number of reported cases of children of choking on Lego blocks - some sadly fatal. #1: The Banning of Lawn Darts In theory, lawn darts sound like a wholesome, harmless outdoor target game for the whole family. Unfortunately, when thrown, these seemingly innocuous pieces of sporting equipment can become lethal projectiles. The metal tips, designed to pierce and stick into soft ground on contact, have proven to devastating when they make contact with a person. Countless injuries and numerous deaths resulting from lawn darts have resulted in them being banned in the United States multiple times over. First they were made illegal across the board, only for the ban to be lifted under the condition that they not be marketed as toys. Following the tragic death of child however, they were once again banned outright in 1988.

I once choked on a Lego brick and almost died. My body wanted to vomit but I couldn't.until I just swallowed it . I probably pooped it out
