It’s time for the annual Retro Awards where we celebrate the best of 2018 and all the things we enjoyed that embody the retro feelings and vibrations that we hold so dear. It was a big year and we had an amazing luxury of choice. So many comic book movies, awesome DVDs and Blurays, heck even print […]
Monster Squad Frankenstein– Admittadly, i prefer the TV series “The Monster Squad” over the 1980s movie but everytime I do a search I do run into these custom Mego-esque figures done by the amazing Distinctive Dummies and they give me pause. Cliffhangers TV Week Cover– Remember the TV series “Cliffhangers” featuring three stories that were […]
I had the remote control R2D2 as a kid, it stopped walking pretty quickly but it was still good to use with the 12″ dolls so I was content, also it still made it’s beeping noise much to mother’s chagrin. She once threatened to throw it out of the station wagon! We have a PodCast! […]
This nice ad from Zayres (wish i had the whole flyer) is from Christmas 1983 and I’m guessing by that point, I had jumped off the wonderful train that was Star Wars. I still read the Marvel comic mind you but I honestly don’t recognize or remember that mini-rig or the plush Ewoks at all. […]
I have vivid memories of that store display with that Han solo wearing Luke’s clothes and Dracula’s cape. We have a PodCast! It’s fun, please listen. Check out our Instagram for more stuff like this blog. Get the expanded digital edition of Rack Toys here.
Even though I wasn’t really into Return of the Jedi as a kid, I did love that Kenner was still putting out the original 12 figures during that period. It was like running into old friends… We have a PodCast! It’s fun, please listen. Check out our Instagram for more stuff like this blog. Get the […]
MPC Star Wars models will always remind me of a funny story, well if you’re my dad, you wouldn’t laugh. You see in third grade, this cool kid named Andrew (that’s his real name, cause I doubt he’s a reader) brought in his fully assembled C3-PO model and somehow, i became “salesman of the year” […]
“Conan Le Barbare” Classy!
I simply can’t look at Star Wars bedspreads and not be happy, it’s Pavlovian. Unless said bedspread has Ewoks on it, of course, then I fly into a murderous rage for days shouting “CLEANING WOMAN!” the whole time at the top of my lungs. I should probably speak to somebody about that. Check out our […]
It’s sadly looking like the end for Toys R Us in the United States, so let’s go and focus on when it was a growing company that made for an amazing experience. This Flyer from 1980 is so jam-packed with late 1970s pop culture that every page seems to have some Incredible Hulk or Wonder Woman […]
