I can’t believe that it has been 3 years
since I first came across Well Played Toys at Toy Fair; it is a mildly amusing tale. I kept seeing signs around the convention about Lost in Space toys and a room number and I became determined to find their booth.

This whole matter became a running joke, we were sure we would never find the Lost in Space toys; I am glad that we were wrong.
