accessory for the toy brands you know and love. Clocking in at roughly
250 pages each, this deluxe hardcover artbook set will take an

them … and, above all else, you must collect them all! Join us as The
Nacelle Company and Oni Press celebrate the greatest toy brands ever
created with THE ART OF THE TOYS THAT MADE US – live now on Kickstarter!
“It took seven years to sell The Toys That Made Us
to Netflix and get the show on the air, and every day since has been a
dream, including this book series that allows us to take many of the
‘relics’, as we call them, from the cutting room floor and bring them
front and center into all of our lives!” said Nacelle Founder and CEO, Brian Volk-Weiss.
“We are trying to put on your shelf a meaningful compliment to what we
put on your screens, and selfishly speaking it’s already been a ton of
fun getting to this point!”
“I think this campaign is going to give fans of The Toys That Made Us everything they could want…and more!”, said Sam Kusek,
Oni’s Director of Business Development. “We’re working meticulously
with Nacelle every day to make sure that no stone is left unturned here!
These books will be the ultimate toy guide!”
