The laughs keep on coming!!
There is no better way to get your monthly humor than by sitting down with a issue of ToyFare in hand.From Doc Ock getting married to Aunt May to Cobra Commander taking over Spider-Man's house the laughs keep coming.They have a section where they show all the new toys coming out and thy always have someone saying something so strange and wild that you just can't help but laugh.They also have the gold of the mag Twised ToyFare Theatre(or TTT for short).TTT is the most hilarous thing in any magazine since the early days of Mad.If you like toys(don't lie I know you do) then get some Toyfare mags and start reading.

A Truly Hilarious Look At Toys Like You've Never Before Seen
"Toyfare" is a truly amazing read, and delivers every month. It surely isn't on the level of top-selling magazines such as "People" or "Entertainment Weekly," but it's writing is like none other I've read. Chock full of cheesy pop culture references to Marvel and DC Comics, He-Man, and everything else, "Toyfare" has some seriously funny comedy. If you're not familiar with Marvel and DC lore, you may not get as much of a laugh, but it's truly ingenius, and an underappreciated piece of writing. "Magoo Theatre," (now "Toyfare) is comedy at its best, featuring a skeptical Spider-Man, Homer Simpson-like Hulk, and alcoholic Iron Man. These monthly pieces are gems on their own, only boosted by the comedy bits in the wildly descriptive listings for action figures.
Be forewarned: "Toyfare"'s humor isn't for every one. Its humor can be hard to understand for people not familiar with comic book lore. But it's well worth a look, even just for the "Toyfare Theatre." You'll be surprised for the better.

No fare like ToyFare
I tell ya, there ain't nothin' that pushes my geeky side to the forefront like flippin' through the latest ish of ToyFare. Along with Mad magazine and the Wizard comic book price guide, ToyFare was a major factor in helping me maintain my sanity during those long customer-free stretches at the comics-and-collectibles shop I used to work at. Not only did I stay up-to-date on all the latest toy news thanks to the mag's scads of previews, reviews, the Top 10 hot list, and the quick-reference price guide in the back, I also got quite a few good laughs from the sophomoric and sick humor that seemed to ooze from every page. From single-panel "Big Shots" featuring various action figures saying and/or doing very wrong things to each other, to snide remarks about how the readers should "try to get outta your parents' basement every once in a while" in one of the Toy Preview columns, to the appropriately-titled "Twisted ToyFare Theater"*, it's quite apparent the guys who put this publication together every month really enjoy their work, and have a real passion for the hobby they write about. Which is something I've found lacking in other toy collector periodicals I've perused over the years. Another thing I've found lacking in other toy mags is a willingness to throw a few yuks at themselves and the readership, something ToyFare almost OVERdoes in each issue. Admittedly, there are times when the mag's attempts at humor fall flat, or are just plain lame. But for every clinker that hits the ground with a resounding "thud", there's always a few riotously hilarious moments that more than make up for it.
But before ya dive in for the yuks, lemme give ya fair warnin'. You'll require reasonable running knowledge of just about every popular TV show, movie, comic book, and every pop culture trend that comes down the pike to fully appreciate the many references couched within the endless instances of sick & sophomoric humor. It's kinda like Mystery Science Theater-- some of the references you'll get, while others will go right over your head...

Good even if your not into the toys
I found this mag and thought it would be something my boyfriend would like. Now I steal it from him! Toyfare covers old and new toys, news, and a Toyfare Theater that is hillarious. Try it, you'll like it.
