Shogun Toy Story

 

Godzilla Christmas by John Eaton

Back when these pages were hosted on wildtoys.com I had a section I called "Toy Story" which featured stories and images provided by current fans who had the  same toys as children. They were mostly of Major Matt Mason toys and I always wanted to expand the section to include the other toys I was hosting there. As a result I've been collecting images from collectors, most of these are vintage (so the image may be a bit "rusty") - I've attributed to the image owner when possible.
