Yesterday, Netflix quietly dropped a trailer (which is, for now, viewable only through the service) for an upcoming eight-part docuseries called The Toys That Made Us. Debuting on Friday, December 22, the project takes viewers back to perhaps the start of modern toy collecting—the 1980s.

The series comes from producer Brian Volk-Weiss, who has worked with Netflix on a bunch of comedy specials and notably did the 50 Years of Star Trek documentary for the History Channel. And it arrives at a time when obsessive nerd culture documentaries are seemingly being produced at an all-time high: Robert Kirkman has been taking viewers into the back stories of major comic characters on AMC, the My Life in Gaming guys continue churning out looks at historic games like Night Trap, and early 2018 will have more The Toys That Made Us alongside docs like the Midway arcade game-focused Insert Coin. Presumably, like many of the creators of such docu-content, Volk-Weiss grew up during the era of these toys and has himself become a collector over the years. (You can hear more of the backstory in this podcast where Volk-Weiss talks to the League of Geeks team.)
