Show Notes - A new era of Toy Break has arrived! No, we didn't get any cuter (like that's possible :), but we do have a new set. So come enjoy that as well as a recap of the Spring Vinyl Toy Network show, Patrick Morgan's Whale Boy, handmade plush dragons by Anna P. of AngelDevil, a bunch of other new toys, a new contest and much more! We're also aware that we didn't quite meet our new goal of a shorter Toy Break, but next time! Next time, Gadget!! Thank you for your support and for taking a Toy Break with us!
