About Us

Hello and Welcome!

My name is Bryan Young, founder of ProTinkerToys.com. I’ve been in the toy industry for over 30 years, and my passion for toys has never faded.

Years ago, I owned a **toy store** where kids could not only shop but also **play** with the toys in-store. It was an experience focused on fun, hands-on interaction, and creativity. However, due to a **failed partnership**, I had to close the doors. But my love for toys never wavered.

Since then, I’ve traveled across the country, working in the toy industry and discovering **incredible toys** that most people have never seen before. This realization inspired me to create ProTinkerToys.com in **2019**—a place where I could showcase and offer **unique, high-quality toys** that you **won’t find in big-box stores**.

With major toy retailers like Toys "R" Us and FAO Schwarz struggling and needing to rebrand, I saw an opportunity. I knew what they did wrong, and I wanted to build a **toy store for the people**—a place where **you can find exciting, hard-to-get toys** that bring back the magic of childhood.
