George Gaspar

Like most children, my first toy was a plush. A Curious George to be exact. Growing up I had all sorts of action figures from He-Man to Star Wars and everything in between. I currently collect way too many things to list. As far as experience, I have been working in the industry since 1996. I have worked all over from replica prop shops to McFarlane Toys, SOTA Toys, Mezco Toys, Gentle Giant Studios, and many others in between. Most of my professional career has been with action figures and collectibles which is why, with October Toys, I really wanted to get into the vinyl/art side of things.

Ayleen Dority

A lifelong Lego maniac and plush aficionado, Ayleen's toy addiction started with classic 80s toy lines like He-Man, The Real Ghostbusters, G.I. Joe, TMNT, Cabbage Patch Kids, and My Little Pony. Her obsession grew to include Monster In My Pocket, McFarlane action figures, and a plethora of designer vinyl. She also hosted/produced the weekly show Toy Break online for over 10 years and coordinated dozens of art/toy related events including the LEGO® fan event Bricks LA.
