Vintage Toy Auctions Heat Up This Fall
Vintage auction hero banner

The next two weeks see a flurry of vintage toy sales, each ending on a specific date. First, the Weiss Vintage Toys Auction wraps up on September 10, offering over 500 lots of classic action figures, building sets and nostalgic playthings that have been tucked away for decades. That same day, Midway Auction House closes its September 10 event, a mixed‑category sale that still highlights a solid block of vintage toys alongside other household items.

Two days later, on September 12, Keys hosts a dedicated Vintage and Modern Toys auction, bringing together dolls, board games, early video‑game consoles and a range of collectible playsets. Bidders can expect items that are both nostalgic and still in good condition, appealing to collectors looking to add a piece of their childhood to their shelves.

Mid‑month, the focus shifts to September 24, when C&T Auctioneers concludes its Vintage & Collectible Toys sale. The catalogue features die‑cast cars, model trains, tin‑plate figures and a variety of plush and plastic toys that span several generations. Simultaneously, Midway’s second September 24 auction again offers a diverse mix, but its vintage toy segment remains a standout for those hunting rare pieces.

Finally, the Bontrager Auction Group runs a longer‑term Vintage Toy Collection that opens on September 24 and runs through October 1. This online event aggregates a broad assortment of vintage toys from multiple consignors, giving collectors a chance to browse a curated selection of rare figures, early electronic games and classic construction sets in one place.

Across these auctions, a clear trend emerges: sellers are bundling vintage playthings with broader estate sales, while buyers are drawn to specialized online events that focus exclusively on toys from past decades. Whether you prefer a quick, in‑person bid or a longer online window, the coming weeks provide ample opportunity to secure a piece of nostalgic history.
