Toxic
Scope and Contents
This is a collection of 26 issues of Toxic, published between 2019–2021. Given the limited gaming content in this magazine, the library has chosen not to collect additional issues of Toxic beyond this three-year sample.
Most issues of Toxic were bundled with toys and other trinkets. These items have been stored in their original bags, labeled by issue number, and stored separate from the magazine collection (see collection record "UK children's magazines... bundled items").

Abstract
Toxic is a long-running British children's magazine, focusing on popular games (particularly live serice games) like Minecraft, Pokemon, and Fortnite, as well as coverage of popular content creators and general media properties like Marvel and Lego. The magazine has been published since September 2002.
Like other British kids magazines, regular issues of Toxic were sold in a polybag that included toys, collectibles, and other trinkets for readers.
Separated Materials
Toys and other bundled items have been separated from the magazines and are available upon request (see collection record "UK children's magazines bundled items").
Note on Issue Numbering
Issues of Toxic are undated and have been cataloged by their copyright year. The publishing schedule for Toxic is unclear, but like other British magazines, it appears to have been published more often than monthly, probably every four weeks.
