Several months before it’s TV Debut Mattel Toys debuted their merchandise based on the upcoming series titled “Code Name: Galactica” which we all would come to know as “Battlestar Galactica”. 20th Century Fox would promptly ligitate the makers of Galactica for copyright infringement but the one thing that Galactica had over Star Wars was the […]
I’m gonna say that Spidey’s lap will be warmer and comfier, plus there is less chance he’ll shoot you.
Jason Lenzi from Bif Bang Pow Sent in this wunderbar shot of him at Universal Studios circa 1979 with a real live Cylon. This is just a small sample of some of his cool vacation pics from that tour that I’ll brining to the site in the next few weeks. Looking at them, it’s no […]
Awww yeah, we wrap up our month of Halloween with our third dip into the “Collegeville barrel” with this grooving catalog from 1979.’79 saw some great new additions to Collegeville as they scored some major licenses most important at the time would be KISS, the rock band that wore Halloween costumes 24/7.

I thought I’d seen everything BSG related but I honestly have never seen that Calculator before. The radio is one of the more “on model” cylon pieces I’ve ever seen, a lot of this stuff just didn’t really look right.

The majority of these are from 1979 and from Mego, Mattel and Kenner. Stretch Monster Barbie Superstar Traveler (Judy “Dyna Girl” […]

This second block of commercials features the Mattel Battlestar Galactica Action Figures, Viper Launch Station, More Micronauts and Mego World’s Greatest Superheroes. I get […]
“I suggest you buy that high quality Mattel toy little girl”I’m not sure to put this in the Super Hero Mall Appearance Gallery or Vintage Toy Stores Page because it’s a bit of both. If you look in the store you can see a display of Shogun Warriors and on the wall a display of […]
I like classic Battlestar Galactica more as an adult than I ever did as a kid, making me wonder why I ever had to have these figures so bad.I would have loved to have found Baltar, Lucifer and Gold Cyclon as a wee one but they’re still evading me into adulthood. In the early ninties, […]
