Super 7 reveals SDCC Alien ReAction Goodies
I’m not much of a modern toy news guy but the good people at Super 7 are doing a phenomenal job at pushing every one of my nostalgic toy nerd buttons. So dedicated to channeling the ghost of Kenner, Super 7 not only issuing a SDCC early bird kit (which really is both nostalgic and a clever […]
Hulk-a-mi-phone
From the “i’ve seen it all now” department. While Carnival toys gets a l’il gold star for giving Spidey a bugle (think about it), the idea of the Incredible Hulk standing in the desert giving his rendition of “songbird” makes his utility belt and motorcycle seem legit in comparison.
Jiggler Supreme
In 1979 Ben Cooper released a wave of jigglers that comprised of The Thing, Red Skull, Spider-Man and Dr. Strange. They also did corresponding Halloween costumes that year. They were misleading advertised as ersatz action figures in a Heroes World ad, so I really wanted to track them down as an adult. Dr Strange never […]
Dance floor dynamic duo
Sadly, this moment in time is when Dwayne and Kenny peaked in life, it would be all down hill after this….

What Mark doesn’t realize is there is few things I like better in this life than…. Weird, homemade Star Wars costume appearances! Oh, I could hug […]
1984 Ideal Toys Robo Force Catalog
Robo Force was a nicely designed series of Robot Action Figures that seemed to be largely influenced by Star Wars. The line, despite an animated special was not a commercial success, this may have been due to Hasbro’s Transformers launching the same year, really making Maxx Steele and his “Daleky” crew looking a bit […]
Quick, Robin the Bat Phaser!
I have a real obsession with toy makers giving Super Heroes who are largely anti-gun, a gun. The most galling is Batman, Spider-man comes a close second as he’s also a victim of gun related violence but the caped crusader is the weirdest to me. Remco got around this by making it a light gun […]
Cool, Laced Crochet.
