The greatest thing you will see today
I don’t know what universe has the BeeGees, Superheroes and Sean Cassidy team up with Battlestar Galactica but I would dub it awesometown…. Oh and if your initials happened to be “VF”, you’re welcome.
Colouring Book Theatre: Doctor Who (part 3)
I loves me some classic Who merchandise, so I was pretty thrilled to find this colouring book from World. Unlike the Pertwee one I looked at a while back, this one suffers from that kind of earth tone ruddiness that a lot of Tom Baker merchandise has, it’s kind of morose and reminds me of […]
Meanwhile….at Sea World
It’s been a while since I’ve had a Mall Appearance submission (l’il help?) so I was happy to find this image of the Justice League of Sea World in my stacks. I never got to see this for myself, so I love getting images like this. I’ll never get over the inclusion of Mera into […]
1979 Kenner Butch and Sundance Catalog
In 1979, Kenner toys launched just a dandy line of action figures on a Western, “Butch and Sundance the early days” was a prequel to 1969’s mega hit “Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid” but without Paul Newman and Robert Redford. Instead we were left with Tom Berenger and William Katt (who would be a […]
Kenner’s The Tramp
I found this image in an early 70s Kenner catalog, at one point they were trying to market Charlie Chaplin to kids. I was aware of silent movies as a kid (mostly Laurel and Hardy) but this seems a bit of a reach to me, I guess toy buyers felt that way too because I […]
Relationship check
Take all the mystery out of the “Are you two together?” question, make sure everyone in the room knows she’s got your stink all over her…
Spider-Man busts a cap
Whalloping websnappers, ol’ Doc Ock is in for rough time tonight. It’s amazing to think that artwork of Spider-Man brandishing a fire arm was approved by somebody at Marvel. I wonder what wouldn’t pass? Spidey leaving a liquor store with a rosie in a skirt? No problem! The Spider-Man smoking kit? Why not?
Star Wars 3 pack
Another addition to my ever growing obsession of Whitman poly bagged three pack comics, this pack from Star Wars is something I definitely had. I remember being supremely confused by these ancillary characters specifically the big green rabbit. In hindsight, Jax is probably less ridiculous than most prequel characters and I certainly can appreciate these comics as an adult. […]
Colouring Book Theater: Dune (Part 2)
It’s been entirely too long since I did an entry for Colouring Book Theater (coincidentally, if anybody wants to send in a Superhero Mall appearance, I’d be your friend) so I thought I’d do some new ones for 2013. The original Dune entry proved to be one of the most popular things I’ve done here […]
The Top Ten cancelled toys of the 70s/80s
As much as I enjoyed my childhood, it sometimes pains me to think of the stuff we didn’t get, for whatever boring grown up decision. Sure, some of these licensed wouldn’t have sold and could have forced the companies into risky financial positions but baby Brian wants his toys dammit! Here are the top ten […]
