"Playskool" is also a loosely defined pejorative (sometimes written "Playskoolish") used to deride toys deemed childish. This tends to include stylized "cartoonish" designs, bright colors, gimmicks, and generally anything that was not present in the speaker's favorite Transformers when they were between the ages of 8 and 12. On a fairer note, "Playskoolishness" might also be attributed to the simpler engineering and paintjobs in more recent figures, although that doesn't necessarily reflect all uses of the term.
