Phebe Taylor and Jeff Zappala may love forgotten toy lines, but their collection is anything but forgettable.

Phebe and Jeff now share their collection with Lisa Whelchel and expert John Ragusa, a fellow toy shop owner. The museum features beloved and esoteric toys from the '60s-'80s, including snack-themed combatants from Food Fighters; figures from one of their favorite obscure cartoons, BraveStarr; and a line inspired by Filmation Ghostbusters, whose live-action series predates the iconic film by nine years. After appraising the collection, John proposes a trade-three toys for two-to see if his own items are worthy of museum status.

When a teenage Joe Salg heard Cyndi Lauper's single "Time After Time," he was hooked. She represented what he had been seeking as a young gay man: Outside acceptance of one's true colors, whatever they might be. He began buying albums and any other memorabilia he could find. Then he went on a quest: to gain bragging rights to the most unique items ever related to the pop icon. Years later, he had so many prized possessions that friends and family urged him to open a museum dedicated to the singer. Today, he is the proud owner of The Cyndi Lauper Museum, which is acknowledged and admired by the music legend herself.

Claire Peterson is not your typical Transformers collector - most are male. But as the daughter of an engineer, she loved working with her hands, and she became enamored with Transformers when she was still a child. That was in the early 1990's, during what is called the Generation 2, or G2, Transformers era. Generation one started in the 1980s. Now, Claire collects everything from G one and G two to the B Wars, the Beast machines, and beyond. Claire also buys and sells Transformers at local and regional conventions as well as online. She has about 1,100 on display and a little more than 2000 in storage, each of them unique. Out of all the cartoon, TV shows, and movies that have come out of the franchise, the 1986 animated film "Transformers" is one of her favorites. She says she is devastated, though, that she still does not have the full Devastator combiner set. She and our expert, Ben Talmage, had already crossed paths, having met at a local Michigan toy convention.

After that, the hunt was on, and he began to collect every Indiana Jones item he could find. Today, his job as an RN can be taxing, and his R and R is turning on one of the movies and posting Indiana Jones related content on social media.
