SOUTHEAST WISCONSIN (CBS 58) – If you have any old toys, comic books, or action figures lying around the house and want to get some cash for them, you may want to check out “America’s Toy Scout” this weekend.

Joel Macgee goes around the country looking for old toys. He restores them and gives them to collectors. Macgee says toys are appealing to collectors because they bring back childhood memories.

“It’s an escape, it really is. You do the rigors of life, raising families and such and it's fun to get away and go back

to that special place and time and those help bring those memories out,” says Macgee.

America’s Toy Scout will be in southeast Wisconsin the next couple of days. For more information, please click here.
