Toy Boy

Series Overview

Toy Boy starts as a Home Alone-like adventure set at the crossroads of technology and imagination.

Bobby Tucker, a lonely and broken twelve-year-old, moves into a magical childhood home on an Indian Reservation with his grandfather—a retired weapons engineer and eccentric Rube Goldberg-style inventor who now reimagines technology as harmless toys.

In this strange new world, filled with secret workshops, self-aware robots, and echoes of ancestral energy, Bobby begins to rebuild himself. Through invention, play, and the guidance of his grandfather, he learns that self-acceptance—not perfection—is the ultimate superpower.

Each episode balances humor, action, and wonder, blending grounded emotion with inventive spectacle. This is a story about courage born from vulnerability and the boundless creativity that comes when you finally believe in yourself.
