The month of Halloween combined with getting the book to press has really done a number on me creatively. So, instead of a catalog update this Friday, I’m just going to run a contest and lay down on this love seat for a while. It’s a fun one and anybody can join, so check it […]
If I wore that shirt in my twenties, I think every male friend I knew (and likely a few female ones) would just be unable to see it as anything but a target for a gut punch.
I sat in with “Tank” from the Underscoop Fire podcast last week as we gave some running commentary to the 1979 Collegeville Costumes catalog. The conversation ranges from KISS to Marie Osmond and as always, I slip in some “A Man Called Sloane” references (somebody has to!). It was a lot of fun to do […]
My pal Corey (who always has neat stuff on Ebay) sent in some really cool photos of the different costumes produced for shows created by legendary TV producer Gerry Anderson and well, there is no better time to look at these, just gonna seem weird tomorrow. More Collegeville/Ben Cooper fun after the jump… First off, […]
I’m loving this photo sent to me by Jeff who is in the 1979 Collegeville Wolfman costume and his twin is in the Collegeville Skeleton. Jeff’s uncle in the cool Don Post Skeleton mask and Dad is the Werewolf, also by Don Post. The Kooky Spooks Bat is his cousin. That’s a family portrait worthy […]
Life is strange, if you had asked me 30 days ago if there was going to be a Lincoln Monster update in the Halloween blog posts this year, I’d have answered no. Truth was, there wasn’t much by the way of things to update. Then all hell broke loose and I’ve got more than I […]
October is the perfect month to unveil the newest Catalog from Azrak Hamway Internationl (AHI). Why? Because that’s the year that the 70s Rack Toy Giant decided to license the Universal Monsters transforming thousands of us unsuspecting children into monster kids! Combine that with more Superhero stuff you can shake a stick at and […]
I am really excited to say that I’ve made a major find and it’s timing couldn’t be better seeing as it’s a Collegeville costume that I didn’t think was real. More after the jump.. When I first posted this costume in the 1973 Collegeville Catalog three years ago, I thought it was the coolest Halloween costume […]
Although I’ve never owned any of these APC Monster Puzzles but I’d love to discover this display in the back of a drug store one day…
I really like these things, as cheesy a concept as they are, they’re also a little disturbing. A pair of demonic faces where your eyes are supposed to be? Genius. Check out our new website for our book, Rack Toys.
