Let’s make it a Knit Pantsuit Christmas
Wouldn’t it be nice, just one year, to have a wrinkle free yuletide?
Sx Flags Star Wars
Danny (check out his awesome art here) sent in this fun shot of him posing with a pretty ersatz Vader and C3P0 from Six Flags great adventure in 1981. Danny mentioned he likes to point out to family that Vader is wearing Adama’s cape but they don’t understand, however we totally do… Send me your vintage mall appearance photos! […]
1976 Clipper Toy Catalog from Holland
Sure things in Holland are a little different than here, their liquorice is salty and let’s just say their definition of “dutch oven” differs from mine. However, Christmases were pretty darn similiar to ours thanks to toy companies like Clipper who distributed some of the best selling toys and games the world has to offer. […]
The Old West by Gabriel
In 2013, we got a pretty disappointing Lone Ranger movie, just like we did in 1981. In 1981, we got a killer action figure line for that Lone Ranger movie that was so good, most kids loved them anyway. Advantage 1981…. Gabriel Legend of the Lone Ranger Catalog.

colouring book theatre: The Incredible Hulk
The Incredible Hulk: Giant Story Colouring Book by Parkes Run I recently discovered photos of this book, taken in 2011 at my pal Jeff’s store Kool Stuff Toys. Parkes Run made these giant books in the late 70s and I remember getting at least one for Christmas. In order to use this for CBT I […]
The Incredible Hunh?
Clark sent in these shots of him and his sister Stef from the Harrisburg Auto Show meeting “The Hulk” and well, this is the worst and most awesome thing I have ever seen. I’m positive this Hulk was not endorsed in any way by Marvel comics as it would give Stan Lee nightmares. I can […]
1984 Remco Toys Catalog
By 1984, all of the toy lines Remco had called staples in the 1970s like utility belts and helicopters were long gone as the company dove head first into the crowded marketplace of 1980s Action Figures Batman and Superman had been replaced by less known DC characters like Warlord and Sgt Rock, the company experimented […]
