THE TOYS that made him
There’s no sense sugar-coating it.
As a child of the ’80s, Mark Bellomo (pictured above) describes himself as an introverted, bespectacled, 98-lb. (soaking wet), Dungeons & Dragons-playing, action-gure-collecting, comic book-reading, dyed-in-the-wool nerd.
No matter, because according to the Good Book (as written by Stan Lee, naturally), the geeks shall inherit the Earth.
And Bellomo has certainly done just that.
Over the past twenty years or so, Bellomo has forged a reputation as one of the leading toy experts in the world, writing definitive books on three of the most iconic and important toy lines ever created: Star Wars, Transformers and G.I. Joe. He also served as Consulting Producer in the three-season Netflix documentary, created by Brian Volk-Weiss.
