Jack Lord’s Hawaii 5-0 Outfit (eBay Link) – I struggle with words here, I mean, it’s….complete with ascot! What more do you need? Buy this and expect nothing but good things to happen to you. I bet it smells like cologne and cigarettes… Thriller Graveyard Gang (eBay Link) – I adore this 1980s KO […]
Kenner Bionic Woman Designer Dresses (eBay Link) — Catalogue mailer items are one of those things I admire, and as a toy collector, I feel they add a charm to everything. I don’t collect Bionic Woman, but I think this set is unique. yes, I know water stains are gross; I get it, but it’s […]
Batman Letraset set (eBay Link) — Letraset is, to me, the superior version of Presto Magix; it’s just magical. My dream is to own someday or reproduce the Doctor Who set without the BBC hunting me down and killing me. Evel Knievel Kid Cycle (eBay Link) — I wonder how many kids tried to […]
Slam Bam Diesels (eBay Link)– I do not recall this toy line, which brilliantly merges Smash Up Derby with RC cars. I will, however, be stealing “Slam Bam Diesels” should I ever form a dad garage band. Batman Stained Glass Kit (eBay Link) — I could do a “5 Awesome Batman crafts […]
Vintage Mego returns with a look at the Magna Heroes, a marriage of the Micronauts and the Superheroes. It’s the one Mego Superhero line most of us never got but probably should have. Iron Man was played by Jason Lenzi. Special thanks to Eddy Berst and Will McGowan (@toltoys_kid) for sharing their discoveries. #Mego […]

Baskin Robbins Pink Bubblegum sign (eBay Link) – Talk about stumbling onto something. I found this looking for toy stuff, and it immediately transported me to my local Baskin and Robbins, which was luckily in the “bike ride” vicinity. I occasionally got this flavour (I was pretty committed to chocolate chip though), but it represents […]
Toy-Ventures set up at Ajax Collector Con this past weekend, and not only did I saw some fantastic vintage toys, but went home with something amazing.

Toy-Ventures Returns with a look at the RedBox Batman, a figure that is as mysterious as the character he’s ripping off. We talk about how the action figure came to be and it’s evil twin, the Knock-Off as we try to solve the mystery! #toyventures #batmantoys #bootlegtoys Check out the PlaidStallions store for Toy-Ventures magazine, […]
My friends at Heritage Auctions have an amazing collection of Batman items on the auction block right now and they’ve been kind enough to let me share some of this glorious collection.
