Discover the shocking truth behind the rise and fall of Kenner, the toy giant that hit the jackpot with Star Wars, only to face a corporate Wiff. We break down the complicated web of Tonka, General Mills, Parker Brothers, and Hasbro, exploring how a $500 million acquisition led to the end of an era. From the golden age of Cincinnati toy making to the final Win of the Power of the Force line, this is the deep-dive history every collector needs to hear.
