I think this is one of the more infamous toys we’ve ever discussed on PlaidStallions. Remco sought to cash in on the Irwin Allen disaster movie craze (but not pay for it) by creating this playset that emulates a massive earthquake hitting a tower. Earthquakes are real events, unlike King Kong or Godzilla attacks, the […]
BIG Toys Week: Bionic Bigfoot OK, so this isn’t the biggest toy to start off with but this toy inspired this week’s theme, so there. I recently came across one of these at a semi-local comic shop called Big B. I never tracked down an affordable Bigfoot and the combination of the price being in […]

We return once again with an all new Pod Stallions and in celebration of the Man of Steel’s 80th birthday we thought we’d make him our topic (We haven’t done this one right?
