Universal Studios Hulk Postcard

My lifelong obsession with this tour is justified when I see a postcard featuring a “Fake Ferrigno” and Frankenstein in one shot. 

Captain America Shield Shooter (sponsored link) 

Funstuf had a lot of success with the Spider-Man web shooter and spun it off to Cap and Hulk (his was a fist.) Kid’s toys should be devoid of logic, the less logic, the more fun in my eyes. 

Vintage Dimestore Dinosaur Display Box (affiliate link) —

Man, this is the kind of thing I could not avoid as a kid. I’m still drawn to such things but this is awesome artwork and features my favourite Dino, Triceratops! Raptor, Schmaptor….

 

 

Lili Ledy GI Joe Adventurer (Affiliate Link) —

I have a 30-year obsession with toys produced in Mexico, and this is one of my “top five” wants: a boxed Lili Ledy “Aventuro de Accione.” I’m not fussy on if it’s Land, Sea or Air, I will get one someday. This one kills me, but I don’t have the dosh to make an offer.

 

Super Gorilla Bootleg Kong Figure (Affiliate Link) —

I featured Dinosaurs, so I have to give equal time to giant apes. It’s a law that I think came to me in a dream. I can’t tell you how much I love bootleg Kongs, both in film and toy form. I love them more than licensed ones. This one has a super cool header card that looks nicked from somewhere else, and I’m pretty sure this sculpt began life as a licensed Japanese Kong toy. BLISS, I TELL YOU!
