Up until last summer, I was pretty much done with collecting AHI figures, completely talking myself out of the one figure that I (and my site) needed, a carded AHI Creature. This mostly because they’re always so pricey, I mean “both kids need braces” pricey. So I just kept the idea that if the opportunity […]
Our second October episode, Jason and Brain try to cram in as many monster toys as they can into an hour and a half. Aurora model kits, Marvel comics, action figures by Tomland, Remco and Lincoln International get discussed as does Cracked magazine, Power Records, the number of times we rented “LifeForce” on VHS (I’ve […]
I’ve always wanted one of these AHI squirt guns, but they’re so rare and desirable that I could never come close. The other thing that held me back was paying a beefy sum for a squirt gun. I don’t know why that should bother me but it did. Fortune smiled on me and I managed […]
What better way to kick off a month of Halloween related updates than to showcase this amazing AHI toy rarity I discovered. It’s rack toy monster madness and it’s all after the jump! OK I apologize for anybody fooled by that (terrible) photoshop job, this is not a real vintage toy discovery of any kind. […]
This toy by AHI is pretty topical considering last week’s Gerry Anderson centric pod cast. I don’t own it but I am lucky enough to know the owner, so I had the opportunity to photograph it at this year’s MegoMeet. Turns out this piece is crazy rare, even rarer then the Superfriends buggy I drool […]
This Mexican version of the classic AHI parachuting Doctor Zaius is my new favourite thing.
I know his “van” is actually more of a pick up truck but I’m not going to tell him.
This is a piece I wanted to add to Rack Toys but it got a little wordy and too insider, so I saved it for here. Most Space:1999 fans are at least slightly aware of the fundimensions “The Alien” model kit, which has no connection to the show. It is in fact, a revamped Goerge […]
The passing of legendary TV producer Gerry Anderson yesterday, put me into a real funk. Anderson created two of my favourite science fiction series of all time in UFO and Space:1999, not to mention a pile of super cool kid’s programming in the 1960s. The man was a visionary, Whenever Anderson’s name appeared, awesome merchandise […]
Behold the last Monster Rack Toy ever produced by AHI! Flasher Faces popped up five years after the Monster merchandise bonanza of the mid seventies and while AHI was doing wonderful things with the license under their Remco brand, these flasher faces are the sole bit of cheap, dime store goodness produced during this period. […]
