We are in the process of restocking for the holiday season but we'd like to clear a little more room.  So, we are offering a coupon for 20% off starting toady through November 6th.

The coupon code is OCTOBER all in capital letters.  Free shipping is still good on orders $65 and up...

Ok, we just received the new Schleich Elven houses - so here they are...

All the best and stay tuned for the 2008 release information,

Happy Monday! 

I've been seeing a pretty good increase in the number of schools and therapists over the last few months so I decided to add Bulk Items to our online catalog.

Basically, the Safari LTD Toob series is now packaged in larger quantities of 48, 72 and 192 piece counts.

The next update will show new releases for Schleich, Papo and Safari LTD - there are some really exciting new figures coming out!

Seasons Greetings!

With the season fast approaching, I just wanted to let you know that we will be shipping holiday orders through Thursday/Friday.  If you haven’t ordered yet, we do offer Overnight Service to most areas – if you are planning to order and need this service then please call us once you’ve completed your order – 215-291-4434.

We also offer Classic Toys Gift Certificates.  If you’re in a real crunch this could be real helpful. 

We are getting a few panic orders in this week – namely Safari LTD should arrive around Wednesday/Thursday.

We just received the Papo mini series.  These are great little toys – like their larger knights and horses but they come in sets of six in a portable tin window box.  They also make a castle and barn & stable set to accompany the figures. 

Here they are:

Papo Mini Horse Set 1
Papo Mini Horse Set 2
Papo Mini Farm & Stable with Playmat
Papo Toys: Mini Knights & Horses Blue
Papo Toys: Mini Knights & Horses Red

Greetings all,

We’ve been in a packing and shipping frenzy for two months – getting in shape too!  Thank you all so much!

This week, we are slated to receive the rest of our Cog LTD Dino Discoveries order with that 36 piece collection of Toy Dinosaurs, Bruder Toy Trucks & Tractors, new BBI Tales & Legends Series, a restock of the BBI Knights & Romans, new dinosaur kits and science sets.  We made a bit of an error on the dinosaur figurines - we basically have two complete sets and two of each as individual figures. Many of these figures are the real rare, esoteric and rarely made pieces. Jump on them while you can before the holidays.

For those of you in the Cleveland, Ohio area, we sponsored a new Galapagos educational interactive exhibit which will run from December 8^th through March/April 2008 at the Childrens Museum of Cleveland.  We are supplying a bunch of the Safari LTD Galapagos series animals to help children learn about the unique creatures which live there.  If you are in the area be sure to stop by!

That’s about all for the moment,

Gideon.

Greetings all,

We are set to receive a Bullyland order later this week. There is a general restock and a lot of new products coming in which we have not carried before. As I’ve said before, as far as what the original toy animals were like seventy plus years ago, Bullyland is it. The paint finish and sculpt are absolutely traditional in every sense.

We will receive a Papo restock of Western Wagons and other items. We are working on Schleich and Safari LTD orders as well.

There is now a small selection of plush toy puppets from Folkmanis available too. They make lovely hand and finger puppets depicting various wildlife animals, fairytale and educational subject matter. Quality is top notch.

Bruder is on the way too. We have some excellent (and durable) construction and farm tractors posted to the site. These toys are great for both indoor and outdoor.

Bags of Plastic Toy Soldiers area on the way which make great stocking stuffers, great for school projects, basement maneuvers and dinner table tactics.

There is a new Dan McCarthy print in stock - Year of the Snake. It's a great decorative piece. If you live in a somewhat urban setting, this should be very recognizeable.

We have also just rebuilt our King & Country Catalog. For those of you not familiar, King & Country produces the best military miniature on the market. These figures are for collectors 12 and up. There is a heavy emphasis on WWII, Napoleonic era, Ancient Egypt, Rome, the Crusades, WWI and the American Civil War. We are working on our final order of the year so if you see something you would like to order please contact us ASAP to make sure we lock you in for the item(s).

Shipping is running same day to 24 hours. We are continuing shipping through Thursday the 20^th. Orders coming in on Friday must be shipped overnight to make sure it is received the following Monday.

Greetings all,

We just received a good sized Schleich order.  Thanks for all your pre-orders on the Animal Nurseries and Castles – they will be shipping this afternoon and tomorrow.

We have just a few left on the Nurseries and two left on the castles so if you’re thinking about getting one or the other it’s time to jump.

We are receiving a large Papo shipment in a few days.  We have gone ahead and posted what we will be receiving so feel free to order.  We are set to get a lot of the minotaurs, centaurs, hoplites, castles, new 2007 release knights & fantasy figures and restock items. 

We are expecting the Dino-Horizon figures in sometime soon and we will be adding another educational toy maker to the site soon so stay tuned more info on that next week. 

Top picks for this week:

Happy Friday!

A bunch of you dinosaur people began asking me about a hard to find company called Cog LTD.  It was not easy to find them but somehow I did.

Well, not only do they produce excellent obscure and popular little toy dinosaur figures (36 in the collection) but they also make toy dinosaur model kits, dig & build kits, interactive sets with cd-roms and various science kits like human anatomy, micro biology and other assorted educational toys and teaching aides.  Bet you weren’t expecting that! And, please don't tell me you don't know a child who loves to get his hands dirty digging up cool stuff!

The anatomy and micro biology sets really got me thinking about what’s coming up next in our struggles with our children’s education.  Now that reading and writing at grade level seem to be getting better, math and science are next.  These discovery kits will surely provide an excellent enhancement to the text books and classroom lessons and could very easily be used in the classroom itself.

So I ordered a bunch of stuf
