Brio broke

Say it is not so:
Brio near bankruptcy

Brio, yes, Brio makes proper toys, out of wood.
Not junky injection molded plastic crap.

Wah.

My grandkids love Brio. Of course they also love their plastic Legos. They don't care about quality, just playability.

Ah, yes we like Legos, didn't mean to dis' those.
Can we put them under "sturdy and playable" injection molded plastic, as distinct from falls-to-pieces crap...

Sometimes I think parents buy toys for the nostalgic feel-good aspect (some of those are damned good, others are quite boring) and then don't seem to understand why the kids are underwhelmed.

Wood is pretty nice, but it can splinter, can house germs, and is limited to rather simple shapes.
