In this installment, Jason and Brain wax nostalgic over the days when we didn’t get spoiled by three Superhero movies a Summer. The time when Captain America had a van, Spider-Man was a Von Trap child and Sinestro used to open for Sinatra. “Where are you coming from Spider-Man” explores what a Superhero loving child […]
Batman and the Orange Hand My friend Todd from Hake’s Americana sent me this incredible bit of 1970s weirdness. It’s a UK promotional catalog where Batman solves a case inexplicably by buying a young boy some polyester pants and a few sweaters. Never has there ever been an item so fitting to what this website […]
My good friend, Jason in San Diego sent in this image for the awesome poster to the sequel to “Bugs Bunny meets the Superheroes” show, “Bugs Bunny in Space”. I think i like it even more, especially since it seems to trying to cash in on Star Wars a little bit. I also wonder if […]
I’ve had this for almost two years but it just recently dawned on me I’ve never shared it here. Things have been slow on the mall appearance submissions lately (please don’t make me beg, nobody needs to see that) so I thought I’d begin a series of my collection of Superhero appearance photos. This one […]
Apologies for the hack title, stuff like this always sucks me in. I don’t collect bike reflectors but it’s vintage, has an iconic image and usually can be found at Toy shows for $5 to $10. Before you can say “Why did I buy this?” it’s already in my car.
Who didn’t love Puzzles in a can? American Publishing Corporation sure knew what kids liked in 1974, their collection included the DC comics Superheroes, Universal Monsters, Dinosaurs even the Lone Ranger himself! Check out the cool Puzzle displays here This one’s a little light this week, I’ve been battling the flu lately but next week […]
Here’s another one I hope is real, Super Klobbers. Basically, they’re just Centsable Socker Boppers with Super Hero dressing. The kick of these is they seemed to have used classic stock art (including swipes from the Mego Superman box) and added boxing gloves to them. Look at that lovely Neal Adams Batman ready to go […]
Honestly I could write an entire book at Batman Rack Toys at this point, that bat logo is a license to print money. It’s amazing how much of it is inspired by the 1966 television series, this wonderful little item from AHI was created and released some 11 years after the TV series was cancelled. Check […]
I have known weakness and affection for the superhero school supplies created by Alco in the mid 1970s. So I was overjoyed to find this recently at a toy show, a Batman slide rule that I had no idea existed. Now my mind races if Batman was the only character in the line of slide rules, […]
