    Just confirming what "we" knew all along, Congrats to Transformers!! :thumb  :thumb 

    Interesting..only 3 toys from the 2000's were chosen, mostly toys from the 60's, 70's and 80's and a small number from the 90's.. were on the list..hhhmmmmm.

    Pretty good list overall! I'm surprised that nothing dinosaur-related, even just a generic, static plastic T. rex, didn't make it on there. But yeah, TFs are certainly iconic toys.

    I was kind of hoping she'd tell what her criteria for the list was. Tho it does look like longevity is one of them, along with general cultural impact.

    Apparently Transformers are Magical and Turtles are reptiles....oh wait...I guess Turtles are Reptiles...but they have a new toy pictured!

    I'm glad TIMES magazine and all of its subsidiaries are so antiquated that they can't afford to do research anymore or I would be upset lol.

    Personally I vote for Power Rangers and Beast Wars for the 1990s I mean WTF
