Two killer updates to the rack toys section at plaidstallions.com, the first being this very rare Filmation Space Sentinels Magnetic Figure. This is one of the only pieces of merchandise I have ever seen for this series. I remember reading about this Ghost Rider set in a heroes world comic back in the day, I […]
“As your mentor, I think you should buy this stylish ensemble Billy”
a little six million dollar love this weekend
I’ve always been intrigued by the Ready Ranger pack, in comic ads and catalogues it seems to make a lot of promises. I mean, Power Pack, signal light, compass, weather forecaster, PA and a compass? If that all worked it would be so bad ass. I’ve heard from friends that this was not the case […]

Masters of the Universe was another toy line that caught my eye during this time. It’s bright colors and simple themes reminded me of a simplier time (pretty amazing considering I was 12 at the time). Castle Greyskull is also one of the best done playsets I have ever seen. Although I closet watched the […]
Like a lot of kids, I was arcade obsessed in 1982, I even recall buying magazines about Donkey Kong. The kid who got Colecovision could guarentee popularity for much of 1983 (this expired by ’84)Those table top arcade games by Coleco that inspired hours of drooling for me. I remember really liking the commercials featuring […]
