Lincoln Monsters Flash Back! From the 1976 Montgomery Ward Christmas Catalogue comes the most iconic image the toy line would inspire: an all-out battle with the Mego World’s Greatest Superheroes. Now in 2024, the Lincoln Monsters will soon be looking to spar with the 50th Anniversary releases from Mego. Who wins? We all do. Follow […]
Kenner Bionic Woman Designer Dresses (eBay Link) — Catalogue mailer items are one of those things I admire, and as a toy collector, I feel they add a charm to everything. I don’t collect Bionic Woman, but I think this set is unique. yes, I know water stains are gross; I get it, but it’s […]
I plan to take a more comprehensive look at this 1972 toy catalogue from Japan’s Bullmark, but today, I just want to spotlight this fun page. There is something so infectious about this wall of inflatable Japanese Superhero bop bags; there is no way these wouldn’t have blown my mind as a kid. […]

Slam Bam Diesels (eBay Link)– I do not recall this toy line, which brilliantly merges Smash Up Derby with RC cars. I will, however, be stealing “Slam Bam Diesels” should I ever form a dad garage band. Batman Stained Glass Kit (eBay Link) — I could do a “5 Awesome Batman crafts […]
As a fan of the short-lived television series “Street Hawk,” I was excited to discover some unproduced toy items hidden in the pages of this 1985 Palitoy/Parker Brothers catalogue. The series launched that year in the US and would be cancelled after 13 episodes. Kenner, we already had a toy hit with Knight […]
Fantastic Four Water Pistol (eBay Link) — France’s Pin Pin Toys carried a ton of products from Mego and AHI but also made their own products like this pretty non-descript water gun. The Fantastic Four are huge in France and well, that seems totally deserved. Spider-Man Sticker Book from France (eBay Link) […]
Continuing with this cracker of a catalogue I got from a chain called “Cardinal” (If you didn’t see the previous bed-wetting spread, it’s here). Just like the action figure page, I am in love with their curating of the Fisher Price Toy lines. I mean, the Little People are incredibly beloved, but this spread […]
