Another one of those magic moments when you're reintroduced to long-forgotten toys you once greatly enjoyed. In this case, it's Ideal's Battling Tops (page 1). Thanks for the re-memory!

Thanks for posting this as it sure brought back a lot of memories. I too had a Billy Blastoff figure and a few accessories. The G.I.Joe Space Capsule was very cool as my older brother and I both got one that year for Christmas. We also had the super charger for our Hot Wheels until a kid my Mom baby sat for destroyed it with his Johnny Lightning car!

I got that Billy Blastoff set in 1969 and my brother got the Hot Wheels super chargers. My Corgi Chitty Chitty Bang Bang car was faster than any Hot Wheels car when it went through the super charger. And a Johnny Unitas football! Living in Baltimore, Johnny Unitas was God back then.

Oh, electric football, you were sucky! You promised the world and delivered ear-splitting chaos.
