4.0 out of 5 stars Latest Edition Of The Popular Toys Guide, November 8, 2000

By	Irvin Goodman - See all my reviews (TOP 500 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)

This review is from: Toys & Prices 2001 ( Toys and Prices, 2001) (Paperback)

I used and reviewed last year's edition (2000 issue), and find this brand new 2001 issue even better. There are 958 pages (6xx9") in this volume, with more than 700 black and white photos. There's an 8 page color section. The authors have updated the listings of over 20,000 toys in up to three condition grades. This expanded edition now includes some of the "newer" toys such as Weebles, and TV toys such as those based on Howdy Doody, Scooby Doo, Pee Wee Herman, and the Flintstones. Additional new chapters cover space toys and robots. Each section contains background information about the topic. If you can't find the toy in this book, you'll have problems finding it in any book. Very, very comprehensive. Toy collectors will use it often.

5.0 out of 5 stars The Best Toy Resource Book I've Seen, October 25, 1999

By	Jason Ramsey (Florida, USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Toys & Prices 2000 (Toys and Prices, 2000) (Paperback)

This book has more items than many of the other toy books you will find here. I know, I have 2 others and they don't come close to the number of toys this book has listed. There are plenty of images too, 2 to 4 on every fourth page or so. There are 925 pages here with about 50 entries per page. So, if you're looking for quantity, look no further.
