Larami was well known for some of my favourite Rack Toy output in the 1970s and 80s.

Vanity Fair made some unique licensed radios and turntables in the 70s. I particularly love the wrist radio (used for things like James Bond and Space: 1999) for Holly Hobby is surreal. However, it is all redeemed by the Fonzie jukebox, which functions as a prop for your Mego figures. The […]
Spanish Frankenstein Game (eBay Link) – I know little about this but I love it and want it to adopt me. A complete set of Tonka Steel Monsters (eBay Link) – While I was a teen at the time, I totally coveted this obscure 80s toyline. It’s basically Mad Max without the name, so […]
To my surprise, I now am the proud owner of this, a Canadian “The Legend of the Lone Ranger” set of the Ranger and Silver by Gabriel Toys but distributed by Irwin Toys. Irwin was known as Kenner Canada and was a big deal around these parts. I don’t collect the Lone Ranger lines, but […]
