I’m too full of chocolate and coffee to do anything like Colouring Book Theatre today but I thought I’d share this fun shot of me and Mego Spider-Man (who does not have a great view) on Easter morning, I’m guessing in 1976. I am assuming that there was some sort if law that children had […]
As promised, we’re beginning a series about the 70s stage extravaganza “Bugs Bunny meets the Superheroes” thanks to some negatives unearthed by my buddy Lou. First off are the caped crusaders themselves (and some kid) doing a photo opoutside the show. More coolness next week.
Aw yeah, summer’s almost here and it’s time to take a peek into what Ideal Toys had in store for back yard fun with the 1979 Summer Time Catalog. Lots of pages of inflatable noveltys such as pools, air mattresses and water wings being modeled by some of the hottest moms ever to grace a […]
The sight of both your parents in “air shorts” would likely be burned directly into your psyche. You can’t unsee something like that and it would haunt you until your deathbed.

This new addition to the AHI Batman Gallery was a gift from my friend Bill. I’ve stared at it for a long time before I realized it wasn’t on the site. The card is just killer, I love that Batman. To my surprise I won this Bendy Creature from the Black Lagoon with little to […]
I’m not sure why it took me so long to get around to the Fisher Price Adventure People but they’re card #18. As anyone who reads this blog might already know, I have a mild obsession with this toyline, they are one of the most memorable (and durable!) action figures of the 1970s. The set […]
The “Bugs Bunny Meets the Superheroes” stage show is one of those things I wish I had experienced as a wee one. However, thanks to awesomeness of my pal Lou, I’ll be unveiling some photos from the actual show on the blog next Saturday. Stay Tuned….
I’ve uploaded a couple of commercials from volume 2 of our DVD “70s Toy Explosion“(thanks so much to everybody who ordered BTW) and thought it’d be cool to share them today. It’s fun aaaaand so much less time consuming than scanning an actual catalogue. This commercial for the Barbie Star Traveller is of interest of […]
