Histoire des jouets dans des salles nostalgiques

Magasin de jouets avec jouets vintage

Figurines d'action et jeux de société : La collection comprend également des figurines d'action et des jeux de société qui documentent la culture du jeu des décennies passées.

Voitures et trains jouets : Un autre domaine présente une impressionnante collection de voitures jouets, y compris des voitures Matchbox classiques, ainsi que des trains miniatures reflétant la fascination pour la construction de modèles et les trains.

Figurines de soldats : Une salle abrite la collection la plus complète de figurines de soldats au Royaume-Uni, illustrant l'histoire militaire et le développement des figurines de jouets.

Caractéristiques spéciales

La collection est répartie sur deux étages, ce qui signifie cependant qu'elle pourrait ne pas être entièrement accessible aux visiteurs à mobilité réduite. Une boutique de jouets au décor nostalgique sert d'entrée et propose une sélection de jouets vintage, d'occasion et neufs à la vente. Les stocks de la boutique changent chaque semaine, offrant ainsi aux collectionneurs et aux passionnés la possibilité de découvrir de nouveaux trésors.

Such a cute little shop, the yard is door is what initially drew us in then it was like stepping into not only our childhood but our parents and grandparents too! So much to choose from if you’re looking to buy and so much to see if you’re in for a browse/visit to the museum. The staff were really friendly and chatty, will definitely be back!

Lots of toys, some with explanations, for instance how toy manufacturers moved away from making military toys after WW1. But lots of Gollywogs, which are offensive and they have no explanation of how they might offend. It is a museum so exhibits reflect the past and the time they are from. But, with no explanation they remain offensive toys.

Brilliant and huge collection of toys and collectibles steeped in nostalgia from decades past. From the moment you enter the store you are faced with so many items from the toy world. The museum itself is like a journey back in time. The Hamilton family run affair that is a culmination of four generations of toy collecting. Highly recommended as an attraction to visit if you are in the Callendar town area.

An amazing selection of old toys. You need to look up at the high level shelves too. Not suitable for disabled.

Absolutely amazing. The shop is stocked with great items at very affordable and competitive prices. Owneris very knowledgeable and let me and my partner go around the museum for free as we purchased items from the shop. I was completely blown away with the size of the collection and took me back to my childhood. Some of the items I didn’t even know existed. If you’re ever in the area it’s definitely worth a visit.

Excellent journey into the past, plenty of memories and the kids loved it too. We all brought back a little something from the gift shop, even the Mrs! Couldn't leave without Starsky & Hutch's 1976 Ford Gran Torino!

This place will not be for everyone. But our son is very much into figures and model displays. If you are looking for a near bit of history or looking to complete a vintage collection, def would recommend. Nice way to spend an hour or so on a rainy afternoon.

A beautiful little museum even if a bit cramped. Seeing all these historic toys brought back such nostalgia for me. However one small issue is there are a lot of golliwog toys/dolls on display without any information or context as to why these toys are banned and the racist representation of people of color. If they would also add some more history to all the other toys it would be perfect. Owners are really friendly and helpful so hope to visit again soon
