Slumber Bags
Wow! Slumber bags are much nicer than those crappy sleeping bags they sell at Woolco. I feel all classy saying it that way.
Dirt Bikes!
Looking through a Western Auto Catalog today, I was reminded of how important a dirt bike was when I was growing up. It seemed to give you street cred, although in my case that “small town middle class suburbs” street cred.. The kids with the dirtbikes were the ones people flocked to, an early version […]
The Infamous Sears 1975 Peek-a-Boo Catalog Controversey
Recently while searching Ebay for catalogs (which I do way too much) I discovered an auction stating it was the “Infamous Sears Peek-A-Boo Catalog” from 1975. Curious, I checked it out and apparently it was pulled because on page 602, you could clearly see a man-part in an underwear ad. Well, I had to have […]
Super Joe VS Terron Trading Card
This is the final Plaid Stallions trading card for the summer, I’m not sure why I didn’t reveal it earlier but here it is, ta-dah! I have a soft spot for Super Joe and when I found this image, I rushed it to press. I’ve already laid out my next two cards and they will […]
Encounters with Batman, Robin, Apes and Flash Gordon

Lou promises more photos soon, I personally cannot wait. Jason from BifBangPow! who provided last week’s cool Darth Vader Signing at B Dalton feature is back […]
1977 JC Penney Toy Flyer
Department stores used to have proud toy sections, so much so that they were a preferred destination when you had a few bucks to spend. You tagged along when your mom needed to visit the credit department, just so you could possibly swing by toys.One of the biggest back in the day was JC Penney, […]
Electroman VS Zogg
I found this great ad for Ideal ElectroMan in the back of a give away comic (more on that later) and thought it would be fun to showcase here. I find Electroman a pretty dorky looking figure, his whole concept is like ROM mixed with a really primitive version of laser tag. That headpiece would […]
Space: 1999 Contest Winners
I forgot to mention the winners to our Space:1999 toy contest, for those who didn’t get it the answer to the question: “Who Created Space:1999”? was Gerry and Sylvia Anderson, I also accepted simply Gerry Anderson. The 3 runners up who get a set of PS trading cards (that’s 1 through 8 plus a slmie […]
The Dacron Boys
The Dacron boys laugh at danger! Ha Ha! Life is just one big McDonald’s birthday party to this group.
Evel Knievel Stunt World
This is something I’ve never seen before but it makes a tremendous amount of sense. A play case complete with diecast vehicles, allowing you to reenact some of Evel’s more famous stunts. The world could use more playcases now.What’s on DVD: Space Angel– I spent hours watching this cartoon on City TV back in the […]
