There's plenty of "toys" that adults can enjoy as hobbies. Obviously hobby shops cater to that crowd. I kinda doubt if he was buying model trains or.. funko pops.. anyone would be confused that he was shopping for himself. So I'll echo what ScallionPancake asked: What the fuck is he buying?

Yeah, Fisher Price Castle's pretty great, but do you remember the main street play set? With the shops that open and close and you could connect them together to make a whole little city?

Vaguely.. I looked it up and I think some friends might've had it.

> you could connect them together to make a whole little city

That was the trick back then, sell you one set and then you need to buy the rest to get the complete thing. I had a friend who had a whole city made out of hot wheels locations, was kinda cool.

Very plausible. It's also one of the strongest fits for the mere question of the employee registering as a psychological threat.

For me this gets in to a philosophy of toys

A lot of toys may be designed with limitations - an electronic toy music instrument may only play preselected music for example

However some general purpose "toys", like an actual musical instrument, might be "played" with by a child and adult alike

Some "toys" like this are too difficult for unskilled kids to "play" - for example maybe complicated musical instruments or maintaining them

Thus the mismatch is when an adult is looking for limited toys rather than general purpose or adult "toys"... it's like, you can play with "real toys" now, why would you want "kid toys"?

(Maybe another example is a toy car versus an actual car you can drive places with - or playing a video game of driving instead of actually just driving around places)
