International Secret Agent set (sponsored link) –

My pal Matt sent me this today, along with the wonderful nonsense concept of an International “Dirty Harry” film featuring Klaus Kinski and a slew of other 1970s staples. Currently, we are talking about how Vic Diaz and David McCallum fit into this thing, but that detracts from how freaking cool this toy is.

The box art is amazing, few young boys in the 1970s could resist this…..

Fantastic Four Supercar of the Thing (sponsored link)–

I have many weaknesses in this hobby we call hoarding toys and one of my “Biggies” is when Rack Toys include figures of the drivers or pilots. They are often horrible but that is the point; I need them. 

I MEAN LOOK AT HOW ADORABLE THIS IS!

Sure, it’s more “Bibendum” than Ben Grimm, at least he’ll know the best accommodations and five star restaurants, hop on board!  

 

Mattel Welcome Back Kotter DELUXE classroom playset (sponsored link)–

I think Mattel made really nice action figure playsets, and this set is way more authentic to the show than it has any reason to be. This even includes a flexy disk of the show so you can act out the show.  As bonus, this is a complete set which includes the figures. Now you’ll have to buy the recycled Big Jim motorcycle they jammed into the line, but I’m not convinced the figures with their “Sunshine Family” bodies could even sit on that thing!

 

Here is a video I did on Welcome Back Kotter Merch

Blake’s 7 Liberator (sponsored link) —

So I’ve been on a “Blake’s 7” kick lately, it’s such a good show, especially with the new FX, but man, not much merch on eBay. I had a Corgi Liberator as a kid, but it wasn’t screen accurate and like every kid who had never seen the show, I flew it backwards. I am smitten with this card back. We need more Blake’s 7 Merch!

 

 

The Battle of the Planets Magnetic 7-Zark-7 (sponsored link) –

I can still remember the first time I saw one of these at a toy show in Chicago in the late 1990s. To see a beloved character that you never thought got ANY merchandise in figural form is a wonderful experience, I hope you all have.
