Stories will be supplemented with supporting photographs of the production process existing prototypes control drawings used to create the sculpts concept sketches and more. The stories and supplemental materials have come straight from the men and women that lived them - from inventors and sculptors to project managers and toy company executives - as well as from the uber-collectors that seek out and showcase these materials. Did you know we almost got a lot more toys from the V mini-series back in the 1980s than we actually did What about the ill-fated Tim Burton/Nic Cage Superman movie Or that McFarlane was going to produce talking South Park figuresLike the previous books TOYS THAT TIME FORGOT VOLUME 3 is an art/history book. It is not a guide designed to log each figure and each accessory in a static format. It presents these 'lost' toys in dynamic eye-catching ways that showcase both the toys as art and their respective places in history. VOLUME 3 like its predecessors is split into three sections: The Golden Age 1980s Darker Times 1990s and The Gilded Age 2000s. Each section will have entries representing a healthy mix of both licensed and inventor-based products. some of which again have never been seen by the public. Blake Wright Press hardcover
