What ever happened to Juan Epstein?
This catalog page reveals a sad truth, like many highschool dropouts, Juan was lured into the dark world of catalog underwear modeling. His whereabouts are now unknown…..
GI Joe’s cheaper wheels
During the 60s and 70s, Irwin Toy made some lower cost blow molded vehicles for lines like G.I. Joe and Action Jackson that were a lot of fun and quite collectible these days. The cool thing about these is Irwin actually went and licensed the GI Joe name for some of these, they were branded […]

The Overall Suit
Popular in areas without indoor plumbing, the overall suit (worn by model “A”) failed to catch on in larger urban areas.
Eagle One Gun
Here we have the rather odd AHI Eagle one water pistol, it looks kind of ill advised but you have to remember that AHI probably sold a boatload of these so they just applied the Star Trek template to Space:1999 when it came to all merch. What I really enjoy about 1999 merchandising is the amount […]
