Star Aliens Meet Superman

May 15, 2008 By Mantooth In Uncategorized 4 Comments

More Rack Toys today, I’m really digging these die cast Star Aliens figures by Larami. They seem to be rocking that whole Shogun Warriors/Micronauts vibe.

My pal MegoSteve sent me a picture of his wicked cool AHI Parachuting Superman figure and a Knock Off (which probably also produced by AHI)

Big Fun: Jon has created a really cool slideshow of Big Jim stuff that I can’t get enough of.

Selling Stuff: I’m selling the contents of a rather large find I had this week, seeing as I spent more than I should have, please check it out. It’s all lovely 70’s stuff, Osmonds, Barbie, MOC Star Wars, Flash Gordon and a lot more.

Viewing that Big Jim gallery was great. A lot of lost memories were restored!

Having been kid who played with Big Jim toys and loved comics, I’m surprised I never made the connection that Jack Kirby did the art for P.A.C.K.

So… Why does Superman need a parachute again?

For realistic floating action, of course!

Damn, I saw that Supersize Barbie in your auctions, and I thought that they meant plus-sized (well, Marilyn-like plus-sized at least), not just a giant Barbie doll…
