Toy-Ventures returns with a dream find of vintage toys as we recently were asked to look at a childhood toy collection that nobody wanted. What we found was a treasure trove of Kenner Star Wars, Fisher Price Adventure People, Mego Buck Rogers and so much more! Watch Toy-Ventures on YouTube here
Batman Letraset set (eBay Link) — Letraset is, to me, the superior version of Presto Magix; it’s just magical. My dream is to own someday or reproduce the Doctor Who set without the BBC hunting me down and killing me. Evel Knievel Kid Cycle (eBay Link) — I wonder how many kids tried to […]
Continuing with this cracker of a catalogue I got from a chain called “Cardinal” (If you didn’t see the previous bed-wetting spread, it’s here). Just like the action figure page, I am in love with their curating of the Fisher Price Toy lines. I mean, the Little People are incredibly beloved, but this spread […]
Vintage Marvel comics display from 1977 (eBay Link) — I don’t remember what this display is for but BAM! this is just my childhood. Bonus nostalgia points for using some of the same clip art as the Mego World’s Greatest Superheroes. Star Wars Carnival Mirror (eBay Link) — I miss the age of Carnival […]

Fisher-Price and Lego- 1980 Consumer’s Distributing Catalog If there is any testament to the power of Fisher-Price toys, it’s the fact that many of the items featured here had serious longevity. I had the three bottom items from the Fisher-Price play family series, namely the Farm, the parking garage and the ferry boat before […]
Fisher-Price Adventure People Catalog From 1983 One of the most influential Action figure lines of the 1970s, the Fisher-Price Adventure People were North America’s first 3 3/4″ line of action figures and vehicles. These durable toys had a great deal of play value and the toy line lasted for nearly a decade, which in the […]
