Ernie Production Mold from Sesame Street (sponsored link) —

These are unique pieces of toy history and I’ve own a couple of them in my time. The trouble is, they look like this and are usually heavy to ship. Neat though.

Zee Toys Metal Man Sears Catalog Gift Set (sponsored Link)

Oh boy do I want this set, I’ve tried to get it half a dozen times in my 29-year (uck!) history on eBay. This one tasks me with its beauty and use of colour but it’s not a good time. BTW the backdrop is just from the saucer box.

Spider-Man Confessions of a Rock Superhero Record Store Display – Sponsored link

As much of a Spider-Man guy that I am, I don’t think I’ve ever listened to this. I’ve always figured if it was really good, I’d know about it.

Fame The Beach Towel based on the TV series “Fame” based on the movie “Fame” -(sponsored link)

Ever since I found that colouring book at Zolocon, I’ve been surprised that Fame (a show I will admit I am mostly apathetic about) has so much merchandise. I sure hope there is a “Paperchase” beach Towel with a big John Houseman on it. That would be cool.

Ceramic Ninja Music Box from Japan (sponsored link)-

Wow, does my sitting room feel naked without this.

Bionic Woman Paint Set (sponsored link)-

I post this because one of my favourite daydreams is to create an art gallery of all the finished Paint By Numbers sets I’ve seen in Antique Malls over the years. I’ve bought a couple for my daughter, but yeah, if I had scary money, this would be a problem…

Whacky Package Pants (sponsored link)

I really can’t get over how much Whacky Package merchadise there was out there, I’ve shown patches and t-shirts on this feature before but PANTS? I didn’t know they were at “Hee-Haw Levels!”

Awesome 70s Sci-Fi Trash Bin (sponsored link)-

My friend Courtney sent me this and I couldn’t stop staring at it. I always like to put this kind of no-name stuff out there in case someone is looking for this thing from childhood.

There are a whole bunch of weird childhood things I’m looking for. I will find you someday, Captain Whizzo T-Shirt!

Big Jim Double Trouble Adventure Set -Sponsored Link

This seller has more than one of these and I’ve been circling around one like a vulture. I don’t need any more Big Jim toys, but on the same token, I don’t have this set, and I have always thought this idea was just so bad ass.

Everything turns into a gun in this series, and I can’t believe I’ve never seen a jackhammer convert into a machine gun in a movie. It’s been just sitting there waiting for 50 years……

Fun World set of 3 Great Americans Figures– Sponsored Link

I have a soft spot for these Mego Knock Off figures, although at this time I only have the Lincoln, and yeah, he’s with my Star Trek Mego stuff. The bodies are kinda Cheap-o but the sculpts and outfits show some care, boy have I seen worse.

Heroes in Action S.W.A.T set (sponsored link) –

My introduction to this line was a comic book ad, sadly the comic was 3 years old at the time. So, I never saw them as a kid, but that ad has always given me an appreciation for these crude, early 70s attempts ata 3 3/4″ toyline. I’m not much of a military toy guy, the exceptions being soldiers fighting giant spiders or, I guess, when the general happens to be a Gorilla or a skeleton. There has got to be some sci-fi or horror there for me.

Back on subject, I’ve never seen this SWAT set before, and hey, it’s really tempting. Also, no sleeves for the SWAT; the M-16s aren’t the only guns they brought.

70s Horror T-Shirt- 5 Awesome Things on eBay this week

Amazing 70s Horror Shirt (sponsored link) —

I have never seen this wonderful horror shirt from the early 70s, and it took me like three passes to even notice the Morbius from the Spider-Man comic swipe. It’s like walking around with every “Night Gallery” on your chest….

Star Wars inspired Sleeping Bag (sponsored link) —

So my friend Courtney sent me and a really cool Star Trek Sleeping bag which forced me to choose. I chose this one because….space tugboat. We’ve got the Pod from 2001 and 2R-2D over there and then what I sincerely hope is a nod to Quark. Tell me if I made the right call, I seriously need a win.

Grizzly Iron-On Transfer with Neal Adams art (sponsored link) –

I am lukewarm on the movie (although a big fan of the genre), but the merch is awesome. I learned from this Iron-On seller that the poster art was Neal Adams, and I’m not sure I knew that before.

Frank ‘N Stein Promotional poster – (sponsored link)

I grew up unaware of the wonderful restaurant chain until adulthood. I feel very cheated.

Swamp Thing Chalk (sponsored link) —

I love Swamp Thing, I have ever since I cracked a comic with him in it. The 90s Swamp Thing cartoon and toyline had me a bit sad that I was 20, but I got over it. 

Zak Man AKA 50 year old Easter Chocolate Robot (sponsored link)

I plan to buy this and create some sort of challenge where someone has to eat it and live. Trouble is, I have no prize money.

Sweathogs Grease Machine (sponsored link)

If you liked Sweathogs merchandise in the 80s or 90s, it was a goldmine of unsold merchandise, usually case fresh. These little cars remind me of the ones McDonalds put out in the 80s, likely the same factory. We used to race them in math class.

Diener Alien Creatures Eraser store display (sponsored link) 

I used to have one of these sealed, wish I’d kept it but I could fill a book with those stories, I assume any long-time collector/hoarder can.

5 Awesome Things on eBay this week- Vintage Easter Chocolate, Alien Creatures, greasy sweathogs and Swamp Thing.

Kingsford Star Force Ogar helmet (sponsored link)-

Kingsford (not to be confused with the charcoal people) made some pretty cool generic space toys in the late 1970s. The helmets themselves are especially fun.

Bootleg Cookie Monster Lamp (sponsored link)–
Oddball homemade off-model ceramics are a joy to find in the wild; they can often be kind of regional. This Cookie Monster has upped the cuteness factor by one million. DO NOT STARE DIRECTLY INTO HIS EYEEEEssssss….Yes Master, I will bring you sacrificial cookies for the Om-nom-nom-nom.

Ideal BeWitched Tabitha doll (sponsored link) —

This was one of my mum’s favourite TV shows as a result, I’ve seen a lot of it.

I came away with a crush on Elizabeth Montgomery, an appreciation for Paul Lynde and I occasionally call my dog “Dr. Bombay.”

Doctor Who TARDIS Tuner (sponsored link) –

I’ve wanted one of these since the 1980s. I still am not positive what it does, but that era of Doctor Who could sell me used socks.

Vintage Shaft fashions (sponsored link)–

I had no idea that the film adaptation of “Shaft” spawned merchandise, but last week I saw a display of sunglasses, and this week I see this glorious shirt.

A shirt that most definitely ever came in my “village lummox” size, and I couldn’t pull it off anyway….

Super Agent HAVOC doll (sponsored link) —

Havoc is such an awesome toy adventure concept for girls, it’s like “Kim Possible” but in 1976. I hope to do this line justice in our magazine soon, but yeah, this is a real neat-o rabbit hole.

The seller also has an adventure set and a motorcycle on auction as well.

Bootleg Stretch Armstrong (sponsored link) —

This is probably a mid-90s item, but I still really dig its incredible crassness. More toys should have “FEEL MY SKIN” on them. That’s fun. That head looks like it’s from another KO item, any ideas hive mind?

Dracula Electronic Hand Held Game (sponsored link)

This was a Japanese game called “Dracula’s Castle,” but this is a US release, and the Dracula on the box appears to be Bobby Moinahan.

The original joke for this was character actor Kenneth MacMillan; this guy looks just like him, but who would get that reference? I even had to look him up. He’s in “Heartbeeps,” which probably doesn’t help matters. 

Either way, that Dracula is from New Jersey.

Prototype Star Trek Decantaur (sponsored link)

My friend Corey sent me this, and he had the better joke about this being about “The Captain’s Log,” while I just wondered why Michael Cera is there. All of this has Spock especially concerned.  This piece is magical, and I’m better for seeing it.

There is also a prototype Kirk head decanter that doubles as Michael Myers?

Hee Haw Purse (sponsored link) –

If you hate being taken seriously, this is the fashion accessory for you! 

Vintage Raideen Tee (sponsored link) —

I must say that if I had this in the 4th grade, it might have helped my social standing.

Mexican Ultra-Man Pinball Bagatell (sponsored link) —

I am a man of many predilections and obsessions, and one of them is when Japanese shows get merch in other countries. I don’t know what it is about stuff like this, but it always grabs my attention. I don’t if Ultraman Ace was shown in Mexico, I actually am not sure how much of it I’ve ever watched. I just really think this thing is special.

HG Toys Buck Rogers set (sponsored link) —

I got into a discussion about this set with my friend Matt, who claimed it was the Buck Rogers utility belt, and I countered that Remco made one. Then I started thinking about it, and the Remco belt is super lazy, even for them, so yeah, I gotta give it to HG who even gave you a l’il Twiki!

Captain Caveman Plush (sponsored link) –

Courtney sent me this, and I love it. I can’t really remember his show, I think it was just a Scooby Doo rehash but the character himself, I just think he’s the tops.

Vintage Darth Vader on Black Velvet (sponsored link) —

I honestly couldn’t do better.

Knock-Off Sunshine Family figures by K Mart (sponsored link) —

As much as the Sunshine Family famously creep me out, I’ve been watching this thing for a month since my friend Rob sent it to me.

I almost pulled the trigger when the seller sent me an offer.

It’s the “Helter Skelter/Old P0rn0” vibes it gives off, I just sort of love this “Alternate timeline” toy line that you can buy weed from.

Mattel Heroes in Action Mailer Box Lot (sponsored Link) –

This is a toyline that I never had but I remember those comic book ads. I’ve always been smitten because of their nice sculpts and their clunky resemblance to the Mego Comic Action Heroes. I’ve just never been a big military toy guy.

Super Monsters Little Walkers Store Display (sponsored link) —

These started as AHI products but eventually got picked up by many other distributors over the years. They are such a happy childhood memory, and I actually did own a box like this full of them at one point, but as they say, “You can’t keep it all.”

Vintage Creature Knock-Off Iron On (sponsored link)–

I miss the day of clever iron-ons, I mean, this is never not funny. Also, down with homework.

V Jigsaw Puzzle (sponsored link)-

I am tempted on this one, my wife and I both love “V” and she likes jigsaw puzzles. This seems like a win.

Slim Goodbody Information kit (sponsored link)

I am so tempted to buy this. I’ve always kind of dug Slim Goodbody’s sincerity as a kid.

Big Jim Boris the Devious Chauffer (sponsored Link)

Another European James Bond Masterpiece, Boris was also marketed under the James Bond 007 Banner. I found this guy in the 80s via toyshop and immediately fell in love with him. Not only is he made up of some of my favourite Big Jim PACK Characters (namely Dr. Steel and Torpedo Fist) but he totally looks like he came out of a Matt Helm film! There is no downside.

3 Henshin Cyborgs with vintage Outfits (sponsored link) —

A couple of really neat deals happened this week with Henshin Cyborg, one of those toy lines I dabble in but mainly window shop. I thought this lot of three Shonin Cyborgs were tempting. I’m passing this temptation along in case it’s of benefit.

A Man called Sloane Promotional Poster from NBC (sponsored link)

For some reason, I am obsessed with the short-lived 1979 NBC Spy Television series that was definitely channelling the Roger Moore James Bond era. It was pretty silly with androids, weather machines and oh so many death rays. I have never seen this poster before. Conrad replaced the actor in the pilot, and I find it interesting that Sloane almost had a mustache. This will haunt me.

1979 Blake’s 7 British Annual (sponsored link) –

I am fond of both the Annual format and this groundbreaking sci-fi series; you’d think I’d own one, but nope. I also haven’t finished the first season Blu-rays I got last Christmas, I think I’ll fix that.

Bruce Action (sponsored link)-

I don’t know what “Bruce Action” is but I think I could use some. This toy is a masterpiece of both sloppiness and inadvertent hilarity.

The Archie Plush doll (sponsored link)-

I had the ad for this toy, which I think was mail order only, in an old hand-me-down Archie comic as a kid. As an adult collector, I have never run into one and kind of stopped looking. My friend Courtney (who always sends me coolness) sent me this auction the other day and wow, there it is. It’s exactly as advertised, and I wish I could justify its purchase.

Sesame Street Ernie Iron-On Transfer (sponsored link) —

Much like Star Wars, I really love the frantic energy of early merchandise like this; the image is pure fun and creative.

The Lincoln Monsters Monster Maker line continues with the Mad Mini Monsters! These will be available for preorder to current backers on January 11th at 7pm EST on Backerkit. Then it will open up to everyone later in January. Stay tuned, Monster fans, more details coming soon!

Durham’s Ranger Action Figure (sponsored link) —

I did a piece on these figures for Toy-Ventures magazine and, in doing so, developed an affection for this goofy series. Durham made these little guys with push-button action for stores like Ben Franklin and Woolworths. There are some nods to pop culture with a character that looks like a young Kwai Chang Caine and an ersatz Evel Knievel. The line is relatively low-cost to collect, and certain figures never pop up, so if you’re into dime-store toys that won’t break the bank, this is the hunt for you!

“The Black Hole” vintage t-shirt for kids (sponsored link) –
I was obsessed with the Black Hole as a fourth grader; it was really a big deal to me, and I would have rocked this!

Star Fleet / X-Bomber merchandise (sponsored link) –

I got hooked on Star Fleet thanks to that awesome Brian May video in the early 1980s and I tracked down the series after. It’s a Japanese puppet show heavily inspired by Gerry Anderson, which was popular in the UK (Aka the land of Gerry Anderson) and I could look at the merch all day long.
