Dust off your spear gun and get comfy in your volcano lair, this one’s all about Spies and spy like products. Jason and Brian talk about their love of the genre including James Bond, Man from U.N.C.L.E, Matt Helm, Derek Flint and there was just no way of avoiding discussion of “A Man Called Sloane”.  […]

Space:1999 Battle on Planet Insectus

1) I never knew this rub down transfer set from Letraset existed until last week when my pal Corey sent me this swell picture. 2) I neeeeeeeeeed it! Look at that awesome artwork. I bet they made a whole bunch of different sets, my wallet is doomed. Toys:1999

Fly Avengers, Fly!

Ahhh the Avengers, Thor, Iron Man, Vision and Ca…Human Torch?

Orr…Bobby Orr

I recall having the Regal Bobby Orr doll as a kid, mostly because one of his skates remained in my curbside until about 1980 as a constant reminder. Me not being much of a Hockey fan, never really knew what to do with him and probably just made him a member of the Adventure Team. […]

Freedom Force Binoculars

Aw yeah, another stellar find in my quest to find any merchandise from the Filmation “Tarzan and the Super 7” series. This time it’s binoculars that I can honestly say were never mentioned or used on the show in any way. Such is the beauty of Rack Toys… This was another situation where the seller […]
