This man was almost as big apart of my childhood as my parents. His designs and ideas will live on forever. So many adults never “get” kids. He did. He knew what we wanted.

Good journey.

Rest in Peace

It was terrific listening to him on the Netflix series The Toys That Made Us. RIP.

Damn, I wish we got more years. He was great in interviews. I loved his frank attitude. I always felt like I was hearing honesty. His designs were so good. Thanks for everything Mark. You're a true toy legend.

Truly, he was a Master of The Universe. He helped us have the power. RIP, Mark Taylor.
