Joes, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, and Star Wars, has seen visitors from every state in the U.S. and over 40 countries around the world.
A Piece of Childhood History
According to museum officials, the attraction is closing due to changes in the city’s tourism budget. Kevin Stark, the curator and executive director of the Toy & Action Figure Museum, expressed his gratitude to the visitors who have supported the museum over the years and acknowledged the sadness of closing the museum, which has been a part of many people’s childhood memories.
