In the 20s, toy makers moved away from war-themed figures and began making mass-produced metal pressed tin toys and die-cast cars.
The Teddy Bear, though it had been in existence since 1907, saw a huge spike in popularity when the Knickerbocker company started their mass production. Bears became insanely popular, and German companies such as Schuco and Bing Brothers began producing mechanical bears that could walk, dance and do gymnastics.
