The correct form is:
toy collection (singular)
toy collections (plural)
The noun is "collection". The word "toy" is acting as an adjective. Adjectives in English are invariable.
toy collection (singular)
toy collections (plural)
The noun is "collection". The word "toy" is acting as an adjective. Adjectives in English are invariable.
