I’m very proud to announce that the latest issue of Mad Magazine features a l’il blurb about my book Rack Toys. I was a pretty loyal Mad reader as a kid (only straying to Cracked for those Monster issues) and I’m pretty sure at one point my parents told me I was rotting my brain […]
Funk meets Country all this week at the airport Ramada Inn…
This is a piece I wanted to add to Rack Toys but it got a little wordy and too insider, so I saved it for here. Most Space:1999 fans are at least slightly aware of the fundimensions “The Alien” model kit, which has no connection to the show. It is in fact, a revamped Goerge […]

“Six more weeks of winter? I believe that groundhog might have a change of mind……”
The Phantom got a lot of cool Rack Toy love in the 70s, which is pretty cool considering he didn’t have a cartoon show to back him up. I like all of the toys but this set, this one is something I’m actively searching for. Seriously, if you have one of these for sale, I’ve […]
