Are Tinker Toys and Lincoln Logs made in China now?

Yes. I was appalled when I discovered it, but yes. And Lincoln Logs are now made out of some kind of odd light wood.

I wonder what kids did BEFORE China made toys????

This toy craze is a recent phenomenon. A lot of it is demand created by marketers, and is possible only since the age of children's TV.
