VH-1 airs a 5 part miniseries called "I Love Toys" March 6-10, 2006 at 10 PM EST weeknights. Similar to "I Love the 1970's/1980's/1990's", it features a recall of the 100 all time toys. Of course we don't count Chuck E. Cheese's/Pizza Time Theatre/ShowBiz Pizza as toy related, but Nolan Bushnell's Atari may count as toy related.

I just saw a short part a little while ago, and unless I am mistaken, there was a PTT Sticker in one of the sticker books! Forgot what number stickers were, though, definately in the 70s.

Stickers (with the 1980's CECPTT bumper sticker) were ranked #77 in the VH-1 "I Love Toys" countdown.

Believe it or not, #96 was Pong, which was created by Atari/CECPTT founder Nolan Bushnell! And speaking of Atari, the Atari 2600 was ranked #20!

My favorite so far was Nintendo Entertainment System (NES). I loved how they showed some gameplays. Oh, how the memories flooded in...lol
