After years of blogging about them, I’m finally giving one away! Thanks to my sponsor (my first sponsor in five years I might add) halloween costumes.com I am giving away either a men’s or woman’s disco outfit in the winner’s size. It’s truly the most appropriate grand prize I’ve ever given. (This prize is only […]
I cannot think of a better update for our fifth anniversary other than doing another vintage toy store update. When I set out to create the original vintage toy store gallery for the site, I never imagined I’d get to part 2 let alone roman numeral X! Being a toy nerd this is my favourite section […]
As if my pants inching up higher and the growing need to get those damn kids off my lawn weren’t enough signs I’m getting older, this impulsive idea of mine hits another milestone. Yes, we’re five and I can’t believe how far this has gone and that I’ve stuck to something this long. Seriously, I don’t even finish sandwiches […]
Their mod adventures will be coming to CBS Saturday mornings this fall!
The Fisher Price Sky Surfer was a rare dud for the Adventure People, it was recalled that year for being defective. A teeny tiny glimpse of the amazing onslaught Kenner had prepared to meet ravenous Star Wars demand in 1978. You can kind of see a whole mess of 12 back figures back there, excuse […]
I love pictures like this, the proud couple, elegantly dressed in their modern kitchen which looks almost exactly like the one I tore out of my house eight years ago. The irony is not lost BTW, I know what I think is cool will look like trash to somebody in diapers currently.
It was all about Space and science fiction at Toyfair ’78 and Zee Toys was way ahead of the curve with their groovy 3 3/4″ Metal Men figures, this display has me absolutely drooling. I have lazily collected Metal Men for over ten years, I think I have four figures… Tobor is Robot spelled backwards, that […]
Went in early to the Spring Canadian Toy collectors show on Saturday and snapped a few shots of what’s waiting for folks tomorrow in Toronto. This by no means represents this metric ton of cool stuff there, just some of the more oddball things that caught my eye. Fonzie Pencil case with it’s creepy caricature almost […]
This past week I was sent links to two sites that promptly took a couple of hours out of my day, any site that does that deserves accolade. It’s cold and raining where I am and maybe it is where you are so let’s showcase them in the hopes of brightening your day. It’s all about toy aliens and cartoon […]
In the late 1970s a British Phenomen made it’s way stateside via syndicated package from Time Life, originally offering the first seasons of Fourth Doctor Tom Baker and the rest is cult TV history. This beautiful piece not only has to sell the long running series to an American market but also explain it, which […]
