Back to the days when Super Hero shirts were tough to find and mainly came in kid’s sizes. Despite all the Super Hero antics, my eyes immediately went to the Marx Big Wheel shirt. It seems to be a swipe of the Artwork Jack Davis did for the Marx Catalog. The Fonz was a […]
Pod Stallions 110: What We’re Watchin’ Keen-eared listeners of the Pod Stallions podcast know that those boys can talk, know a lot of stuff and have opinions, whether they’re asked for or not.

FuzzBuster Radar Detector (eBay Link)- Stuff like this reminds me of my grandfather; he bought gadgets left and right. He had a TV tray with a police scanner next to his lounger, and it was a whole thing. Anyway, I could totally see this on the dashboard of his Datsun. It just looks like it […]

Space Robot Patch (eBay Link) – When my friend Courtney sent me this, I decided to theme the whole post about bootlegs. I mean, this is crassness just mingled with laziness. The time that this company spent thinking up a name! It must have been an all-night brainstorming session. I hope they at least ordered […]
The Shadow Toys- Toy-Ventures Toy-Ventures celebrates its 150th-ish episode talking about 70s merchandise based on the Shadow, a radio legend.

Batman Crazy Foam (eBay Link)– I was obsessed with Crazy Foam as a kid, still am. I am just glad I don’t have a fetish where people in superhero costumes puke on me. That would be messy. Mexican Planet of the Apes Record (eBay Link)– I have zero idea what kind of music this […]
While generally considered a Star Wars Knock-Off, if “Luke Solo” above wasn’t enough of a clue, the Kusan Sonic Fazer is one of those toys that’s better than Kenner’s official products.
