“They walk in, first word they say is usually ‘Wow!’” he said. “People literally get teary eyed when they see my Chatty Kathy, my Thumbelina, my Easy Bake Oven, my G.I. Joes. … They find their best friend.”

The store opened six years ago in space that Clonts used for his real estate business until the Great Recession tanked the industry and he also suffered a near fatal fall from the roof of his building.

While he was recovering, his wife, Renee, was uncovering piles of vintage toys and Christmas items he’d been stashing away for years in the basements of their house and the business, which includes his auto collision shop.

She moved it all to the empty real estate space. A sale was advertised, and the store was born.

Clonts got back to selling real estate full swing, but he also stays on the hunt for new additions to his store.

He’s especially excited to find old windup toys, which are favorites of both him and his wife.

The store maintains a large collection of Western-themed toys, a room with running Marx model train sets from the ‘40s and ‘50s and slot car sets from the ‘60s and ‘70s, and an entire room devoted to early Barbie dolls, complete with campers and dreamhouses.

Clonts, who loves to cook, had always thought he might spend his golden years running a little coffee shop or restaurant.

“Nothing in my wildest dreams would have been ‘I’m selling Barbies.’ That wasn’t in the plan,” Clonts said. “But something bigger than me was in His plan.”

Full Circle Toys

Explore the front of this 10-year-old Newnan store for vintage action figures, Transformers, Barbies, comic books, dolls, model cars and planes, and all things Lego.

Head to the back of the store to find vintage vinyl records and a gamer’s paradise featuring tabletop RPG games, retro video game systems and thousands of games for almost every system. The store also carries new toys and video games.

“We try to offer stock that Walmart, GameStop and Target don’t offer,” said Kelli Mix, who owns the store with her husband, Richard, and has a personal passion for ViewMasters.

The store buys from sellers from across Georgia and will search for items customers don’t find on its shelves.

G.I. Joe and Star Wars are the top sellers, Mix said, adding that toys from the ‘80s such as My Little Pony and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles are hot right now.

“We’re called Full Circle because we take you from the time you were a child till the time you’re retired,” she said. “We’re here because we like to make people happy.”

This year, Christmas and Hanukkah arrive during the same week. From Atlanta to Alpharetta and Decatur to Doraville, grandparents are mulling over ways to spend memorable holiday time with their families.

Some of today’s busiest grandparents may get creative in their kitchens, while others will search for an exceptional bakery. Perhaps you’ve decided to bake with the kids as a bonding activity. If the grandchildren are too young, or you prefer to save your kitchen floor and cabinets from accidental spills of finger-licking icing and chewy chocolate, Atlanta has other delectable options for holiday treats.
