I recently discovered this in a catalog for toymaker GLJ, who specialized in things like bop bags and inflatable Barbie Furniture. Turns out they had the Battlestar Galactica license and planned a number of things, including this inflatable Colonial Viper that would have fit the 12″ Mattel figures. While some GLJ BSG merchandise made it […]
As a kid, had I seen this page I would just torn it out and handed it to Santa…
It’s impossible to know just how many children this set inspired to become notaries/astronauts. Get our book on Rack Toys and other goodies at our online store
Poster and marker sets were one of my favourite ways to spend an afternoon as a kid (cause that’s about how long the markers would last). I also recently have become invested in tracking down all the ones I had as a kid. Craftmaster had all the best licenses in the late 70s which included […]

As far as I can tell, this toy never saw release. It was offered by a division of Mattel known as Concept 2000 and it gave kids the ability to talk like a cyclon when placed upon their heads. I’m a pretty casual BSG fan but the fact that this didn’t get made kind of […]
This past Sunday I set up at Burlington Toy Show, mostly to hang out with friends and eat food that’s not good for me but also to hopefully earn some money for next week’s Mego Meet toy show. It was hard being good but I took photos instead of buying, above is easily the rarest toy […]
