Knock-Offs: Fashion Dolls:1999

  I have a couple of these Knock-Off German fashion dolls with overstock clothes from other toys, my favourite being the Denys Fisher Tom Baker Doctor Who.

The mystery of the Kung Fu Man has been solved! You probably have never heard of him, but “Action Jose: The Kung Fu Man” has been the subject of conjecture on action figure forums for decades.

70s Bugs Bunny Merchandise

I don’t collect Bugs Bunny merchandise as an adult, I honestly feel watching Looney Tunes as a kid was time well spent.
