I love dress alike disco people
Mostly because I don’t have to write anything.
Butch and Sundance: The Plastic Years
Another toy line that I never knew existed, Kenner’s Butch and Sundance (based on the 1979 prequel) line made a real quiet debut but the amount of effort into them have made them a cult favourite with collectors. The Saloon playset is a recycled Star Wars Creature Cantina and the figure’s body style would later […]
Retro Senses tingling!
I rarely discuss new toys but this one really caught my eye. It seems a company has released Spiderman and Wolverine Parachute figures that harken back to the days of AHI (more on them very soon), this sucker works pretty well on the front lawn, although I need to work on my throwing technique. Apparently […]
Unk! Tantor! Unk!
It seems as good a time as any to talk about my appreciation of a muscular man in a loin cloth. I’m talking about Tarzan and today’s update to the site is all about the various cool Tarzan toys I’ve picked up over the years. Check out the (Hopefully soon to expand) Gallery of Tarzan […]
Knights In Santa’s Service
Here are some very rare examples of KISS merchandising, as everyone knows the band doesn’t care much for merchandising as they feel it ruins their artistic integrity.The kid in the picture never listened to a KISS record in his life, he’s a Leo Sayer fan, poser….
Mike Power: Atomic Man
Another happy memory for me is Mike Power: Atomic Man, rumour has it that Hasbro didn’t want to license the Six Million Dollar Man series so they beat everyone to the market with his G.I. Joe equivilant.Hasbro gave Mike and interesting back story, a cripple who built his own new (clear) bionic limbs to replace […]
A Celebration of Brick
Today marks the one year anniversary of this blog and it seemed fitting to use it to pay a little attention to my favourite catalog model, Brick Mantooth. I originally blogged about him here, calling him “Brick Conners” (after “Mannix” star Mike) but eventually my appreciation for emergency star Randy Mantooth, forced me to change […]
Holy Soapy Vomit Batman!
This week marks the anniversary of Plaid Stallions, so I’m devoting much of it to things that me happy. One of those items would be Crazy Foam, although I’m not exactly sure why.For those not in the know, Crazy Foam is a bath product, which if I’m not mistaken smelled a lot like shaving cream. […]
More from Charlies Basement
This is a follow up to the first Charlies Basement segment in which I took random photos from a friends toy collection. Above is a boxed Mattel Rodan, that one made me a little jealous as did the perfect mailer boxed Shogun Warriors. Carded Super Joe figures are extremely hard to find, I’ve never seen […]
The Bully Magnet
No wonder Sven in the back is smiling, he could wear an “I love Grandma” T Shirt to school and nobody would notice him standing next to the Mike Brady action jumpsuit.
