Tin - Battery Operated - Wind-Up - Robot Toys


Before the age of plastic, toys had to be made out of more primitive materials. Modern mechanical innovations necessitated the use of metals such as tin to create toys that featured different actions. This section mainly deals with the more old-fashioned toys - many still in production in one form or another today - which are characterized by their composition (Tin), or their method of action (battery-powered or wind-up). We also include the Robot section here because it fits so well and in many ways is a sub-category of the other three.

Also, please note that the categories below tend to overlap a lot, so, if you are looking for a certain item, be sure to check more than one page for its listing.

Please be patient with us as we set this section up. You can go to the separate sections by the links below.
