Toy Break Episode 12... Current episode Toy Break Episode 12 : Ring Ring! Join us for a look at more Marvel Zombies, MINDstyle's City Critters, Super Rad Toys Axis of Evil, Pheyden by Onell Design, and a visit with Rich Vanover and Ben Goretsky at Wheaty Wheat Studios!

OctoberToys.com v2.0 ... OctoberToys.com has been redesigned for maximum awesomeness! Easier navigation Current and past newsletters are now up in the "News" section True hub for everything October Toys! We are in the process of updating the look of the online shop and forum just a little to better match the new site design, so watch out for that soon!

Other interesting stuff… - Did you know that cars have an arrow next to the gas tank symbol on the dashboard and that arrow points to the side of the car with the gas tank? Useful. - We had to move the Toy Break video files to a new web host due to bandwidth issues (which means more of you are watching and that rocks!). We found a great one called Dreamhost.com that starts at $7.95/month with 145 GB storage and 1.5 TB of bandwidth (which means a lot of people can look at your stuff!). If you're looking for web hosting, check this one out and you can even help support Toy Break by using our promo code "toybreak1" to save $50 on monthly plans or $60 on yearly plans!

Thank you and have a super spooky Halloween season!
