Spanish For Slime
Found this ad in a completely unremarkable Spanish catalog from 1983, where apparently Slime was a brand new thing and was called “Bandi Blub” which doesn’t seem to translate at Google….
Right On Stylings for Both of You!
That is the greatest…..hat….ever.
Bionic Tattoos
I had never heard of these before finding them on ebay last month, what a perfectly wonderful and logical idea. I’d have been all over this concept as a kid. As an added bonus, I’ve made one of the stickers printer size, so let’s all print it out and wear one to work today, come […]
Colouring Book Theatre: Tuffy Tooth Meets Butch Cavity and the No Tooth Kid
Great title huh? I found this little bit of pain at a flea market and I actually paid $2 for it. This is one of those things you got for free when your mom bought toothpaste or you could actually pay $0.25 for it, if you did that, you’re as dumb as me. I bought […]
The Empire Strikes Cleveland
JD who sent in that great Spider-Man picture from last week also sent this awesome Darth Vader appearance from 1980 at the Parmatown Mall, also in the Cleveland area. The store was either Higbees or May Company, he can’t remember. Just in case you don’t see it, there is something that sets this apart from […]
The Defenders :1975 Hasbro Catalog
So you’re Hasbro in 1975 and everybody is cutting into your G.I. Joe profits with dolls named “Mighty Gary”, “Fighting Yank” and “Mr Action”, what do you do? You rip them off of course! That’s exactly what Hasbro did in 1975 with “The Defenders” a fairly cheap blow molded doll (whose head would later be […]
The Vest Suit
What a young man had to look forward to wearing in the early 70s, almost an indoctrination into “Furley hood”* and somehow, makes the option of Viet Nam that much more appealing. * The right of passage where you became a lonely bachelour living in your brother Bart’s apartment building.
There are 50 Adventures of G.I. Joe
And I want every single one of them! Argh! I’m not really a Joe collector but about once every 4 years, I go on this insane bender, where I purchase as much as I can find and afford. Eventually I came to my senses realising a) I’m broke and b) I have no room to […]
You and What Army Pal?
Something simply must be done to end the vicious cycle of “catalog model on Catalog model” violence. Last year’s Montgomery Ward’s shoot resulted in nine injuries and 37 pants related fatalities.
Super Spinner of Rack Toys
The stuff dreams are made of, a spinner packed to the gills full of rack toys by Henry Gordy inc. Imagine finding this in some long forgotten hardware store somehere. I’d fill my car with Superman Ball Blasters… I don’t get the Hulk handcuffs though unless he was kinda kinky.
