They say fashion is cyclical, how come I still can’t own a fine jacket such as these without it smelling like Value Village? DVD Day: In terms of 70’s stuff, there isn’t a heck of a lot to mention this week but if you were a teen in the eighties then the High School Flashback […]
“Jim, Moe and I would like to talk to you about the shirt, seriously, you look like a motel room bedspread”
I’m working this weekend (Boooo!) so I can’t do CBT, what I can do is show this cool article from the toy industry for Saalfield who had some killer licenses in 1975. I’ve already reviewed the Speed Buggy book here. For some reason, I’d love to get my hands on the Korg and Valley of […]
Carlin Trammel (of the great blog Nerd Lunch ) sent in this early 80’s Hulk appearance inCharleston, SC for the Super Heroes Mall Appearance Gallery . He kind of looks scared….

A match made in heaven… I am so digging that orange Ernie sweater, it never ends with Sesame Street clothing. Today’s sole DVD release that I feel like blabbing about is this Rodan/War of the Gargantuas double feature. Both of these movies were part of “Monster Week” growing up and are somewhat responsible for my […]
I’ve been meaning to get to this for a long time now but the discovery of this photo of my fifth birthday cake (which was coconut died blue BTW) provided me some motivation. Like many of us, I was Sesame street obsessed as a kid, even my dog’s name was Grover.Christmas 1975 provided me with […]
