While I’m too young to remember Remco’s dabble with Star Trek merchandise, I will admit that these lazy,repurposed toys kind of fascinate me. The toys themselves were from a Remco line called “Hamilton Invaders” which was a (very clever) line of Army Men VS Giant insects. When they nabbed the Trek license, they just slapped […]
While generic, I find the art work on these water pistols completely captivating. A lot of effort went into their look and Pop Art is completely missing from our current Rack Toy experience. Rack Toys: Cheap, Crazed Playthings is a limited edition 144 page book from the creator of Plaid Stallions. Order from us and […]

It seems fitting to end a month of Wish Book pages with what I consider the greatest one ever. From Monkey Wards 1976, the Mego Superheroes battling the Lincoln Monsters. It’s not my favourite because of childhood (we didn’t have Wards in Canada) but when I was a teen tracking down my childhood monster friends, […]
