Here we have one of the last uses of the AHI Helicopter molds (which had been used for Planet of the Apes, Batman, SWAT even the Hulk!) in the mid 1980s AHI/Remco snapped up the rights to the Archie Red Circle comics heroes such as “The Web” here, the result were some pretty middling, kinda chubby, […]
PS reader Robb sent in these awesome pictures from his collection to add to the AHI World Famous Supermonsters section of the site. These are the slightly smaller versions of the monster jigglers on their original cards which Robb has owned since childhood, absolutely stunning. Not many kids saved their toys, let alone rack toys […]
Behold the very last parachuting AHI figure ever made (at least I think it is, although I’m still convinced there are Mighty Crusaders ones out there) Sgt. Rock, based on the DC comic series. AHI rolled out a lot of old favourites like the Batplane and the motorcycle toy for Sgt. Rock. Their other company […]
Last week, if you recall I held a contest for my newly printed Monster trading cards, folks just had to answer this question Who is your favourite Monster? Well I got so many great replies (although I’m sorry, the correct answer was Frankenstein 😉) and I’m happy to announce that everybody who entered gets a […]
In my quest to improve the site I actually updated two galleries so much that I thought it deserved it’s own Friday update, both relate to my personal obsession with cataloging 70s Monster Toys. Firstly, I’ve finally expanded the Azrak Hamway Monsters section of the site and given everything galleries including other stuff like the Jigglers, windups, […]
New to the AHI Monster Gallery is this awesome display box of Super Monster Jigglers. I’m not very observant because someone smarter than me had to point out that there are two sizes of Monster Jigglers, the larger ones that came in this box that have tags and the slightly shorter ones that came on […]
Time to take an indepth look at one of the more premium products made by Azrak Hamway, this time it’s the Batman Road Race set. Normally, AHI stuck to low cost rack toys and released the higer priced items through their Remco brand but occasionally they’d do a higher price point item like this road race […]
Some fun additions to the AHI Rack Toys section today and it’s all about friction pull back motors combined with licensing (of course). Above is a “spin out” Spider Car, it’s amazing just how many different vehicles our famous web slinger got. This is the friction motorized Space:1999 moon car in Canadian packaging. It’s amazing […]
I got a cool Halloween Treat this week froim my pal Sammy from the Mego forum, he was kind enough to get into the Spooky spirit by sharing his collection of Aurora Monster kits and AHI Super Monsters. Both of these are like kryptonite to me, so check out all the fun after the jump: […]
Time to dig through the vault and see some real Monster bargains when it comes to the many, many monster action figure lines we were treated to in the 1970s. Above is a great ad featuring the Azrak Hamway World Famous Super Monsters. As you can see they are mingled in with the Mego Super […]
