The stuff dreams are made of, a spinner packed to the gills full of rack toys by Henry Gordy inc. Imagine finding this in some long forgotten hardware store somehere. I’d fill my car with Superman Ball Blasters… I don’t get the Hulk handcuffs though unless he was kinda kinky.
Oh Snap! We are back with another installment of Colouring Book Theatre, thanks to my pal Sharry. I try not to go this long but it’s hard to find affordable vintage colouring books to review in my neck of the woods.Sharry’s Lassie book is autographed by Jon Provost, who played Timmy (the guy who never […]
JD sent in this great vintage shot of a Spider-Man appearance in Cleveland 1978 although he can’t quite remember the store it looks like Spider-Man is in the Office Supplies section. If that didn’t rock enough, JD also submitted this uber cool shot of what the “Free Spider-Man Button” looked like from last week’s ad. […]

From left to right they are Jim Camilleri, Jack Kipperman and Merril Hassenfeld, the man who put the H in Hasbro. Neat! 1976 Hasbro G.I. Joe Catalog B. Goldberg and J. Romain are off the see […]
Managed to slip across the border this weekend and hit Motor City Comic Con and while I saw and picked up a lot of fun things (which I’ll share this week), my favorite by far has to be this Brick Sketch by Art Baltazar. Art’s Tiny Titans comic is by far the preferred reading material […]
Free Spider Buttons? That would motivate me now to be first in line let alone as a kid….Send us your Mall Appearance photos!
