The Action Figure Times recently reviewed The Unforgettable Buzz, and we are truly gratified by what Editor Glenn Harman thought of our book.

Here are some excerpts:

“Earl Shores and Roddy Garcia have written one of the most in depth histories of toy manufacturing and the only resource I’ve seen on electric football. The level of detail they bring is astounding, intermixed with development of the original game, licensing, player design, the NFL and historic games that fed into the popularity of professional football, the skirmishes with other companies that also started selling their own versions of vibrating football, marketing and a good bit of American history thrown in as well. 

“The book is softcover and is packed with many wonderful pictures from press releases, marketing and advertisements from back in the day and lots of behind the scenes photos of products that may never have seen the light of day but are cool nevertheless.”

“It’s a wonderful book full of the inner workings of the toy manufacturing world, a place that I know a lot of collectors and hobbyists would find fascinating. The Unforgettable Buzz needs to be on your bookshelf.”

We’re pretty speechless to be honest. Just an amazing summation. Please go read the entire review on The Action Figure Times web site. And if you get the chance, be sure to leave a comment for Glenn.
