Pod Stallions 120 : Collector Culture

So, you say you’re a collector, eh? Well, that’s a loaded descriptive these days, could mean just about anything! From bottle caps to vinyl records, toy soldiers and model kits, seems these days just about everyone collects something. But what does the modern collecting/fandom world look like?

Luckily the Woodstein of pop culture podcasters are on the case and hopefully will provide some answers. Please sit back and tuck into our spirited chat about our lifetime of acquiring treasures (er, um, ya know, collecting) Topics Discussed:

Mego, Action figures, comic book stores, record store clerks, Doctor Who, Starlog magazine, diecast cars, hockey cards, toy collecting, social media, reproductions, comedy podcast, podstallions, plaidstallions podcast, Jason Lenzi, brick mantooth, Pod Stallions

Excel Toys Kojak set with villain (eBay Affiliate Link) —

Longtime PlaidStallions readers will know that I am borderline obsessed with Kojak merchandise. It’s such a weird fit and I especially love the action figure, which I proudly own. This is the rare catalogue set that includes “Bad Guy” which in reality is an AHI Butch Cavendish Knock Off figure that looks like a Footlocker employee. I wouldn’t trade my childhood for anything.

PS Here’s my video on Kojak Toys.

Fleetwood Glowing Marvel Superheroes Display Box (eBay Affiliate Link) —

When I stumbled upon this, it gave me a feeling I haven’t had in ages, just pure wonder. This is a display box for label slap flashlights that were really, really crappy, but the label is Marvel FREAKING Superheroes! It’s Marvel comics in its Bronze Age glory, and the Fantastic Four are involved. I cut my teeth on Kirby/Lee FF thanks to Treasury Editions and I adore those characters as a result (Also, the Corman Movie is currently the most faithful, don’t agree? Bike Racks at 3:15) . I know if you click on this link, I may get a shiny penny, so you have no reason to trust me, but I implore you to check this auction out; the images will likely stir some emotion. 

The price tag will also elicit some emotion, but where else can you find such a thing?

Inflatable Planet of the Apes Cornelius (eBay Affiliate Link) —

Oh, good golly, Miss Molly, smooshing Planet of the Apes with Poly Vinyl Chloride, maybe the “Peanut Butter and Chocolate” of toy making. I own one of these in the baggy, and while I overpaid (waaaay too much Christmas cheer and watching an Apes movie), it inspired the Infl8able Monster premium for issue 12 of Toy-Ventures. I’ll never regret the purchase, that’s for sure!

End Run Mego Micronauts Antron (eBay Affiliate Link) —

At some point during the dissolving of Mego Corporation, a whole bunch of oddball items appeared at Toys R Us stores under the “Lion Rock” banner (*psssssst* Lion Rock was Mego all along!) and all of them are awesome and weird! Case in point, these “factory floor sweeping” put onto cards. Antron doesn’t have any of his cool weapons but hey, he’s 97 cents!

As a kid, I would have fallen for this ruse, by the way. I want this damned thing now!

Hagar the Horrible Halloween Costume by Collegeville (eBay Affiliate Link) —

I unabashedly love Hagar the Horrible and was so amused to find this. As a fan of comic strips, none aged more poorly than Hagar, but so undeservedly so. I adore the faithful paint mask on this. I have a weird story about Hagar comics from my childhood, but I’ll do it in the next PodStallions Nerdtherapy session.

Plaid Stallions 18th Birthday

It’s Plaid Stallions’ birthday, and now I can ship it off to college or the army I guess.

Starting this site on a lazy Saturday while my baby daughter napped was more important than I’d ever realized. I had no idea that when I started posting old catalogue photos online. Starting Plaid Stallions would open such an incredible door that would have me make new friends, create podcasts, go back to college, write books and magazines, and even make action figures based on crazy concepts.

None of this would have happened if I had just decided to watch TV, so it ranks as one of the better decisions I’ve ever made.

Initially, I was going to give PS “Five years tops,” but I just kept going thanks to all the positive people I encountered on this journey.

That support and kindness kept me going, and I always found it here during good times and bad; this has been an amazing ride.

So I would love to give out presents on our birthday because I already got mine from you, and so on with the contest!

RUNNER UP PRIZE:

Ten participants will receive an Infl8able Monster in its limited edition packaging.  These are the same figures that come with issue 12 of Toy-Ventures Magazine, but in a special “Rack Toy” package. We’re only making 150 of these with a custom header card by the amazing Peter Carsillo; these will be sold on the site and at shows soon, but you can get one absolutely free.

SECOND PRIZE:

One lucky person will get a complete set of Lincoln Monsters collector pins and an Infl8able Monster.

GRAND PRIZE

HOW TO

Grand Prize is an assortment of cool items from the PlaidStallions Shop with some various “Vintage Toy Surprises” in the mix, Contents include:

• All 12 issues of Toy-Ventures magazine including all “in-stock” premiums
• Limited Edition INFL8ABLE Monster
• A signed copy of Knock Offs: Totally Unauthorized Action Figures
• 3 Toy–Ventures collector pins of the winner’s choosing
• a Set of Plaid Stallions Polyester pals
• An Officially licensed Tura Satana action figure
• Vintage Surprises

HOW TO PLAY:

To enter, comment on this blog post (please add your email address; I won’t contact you if you don’t win)  and answer the following question:

Who was your favourite Love Boat Guest?

My personal favourite is Deacon Dark (played by Sonny Bono) but there really isn’t a wrong answer (unless that person wasn’t on the Love Boat, I guess) 

One entry per person, and please only comment on this post.

I will announce the winners this Saturday. Good luck, and thank you all for your kindness over the years.

Plaid Stallions 18th Birthday Contest

The post Plaid Stallions 18th Birthday Contest appeared first on PS.

Mattel Slime with Worms commercial (eBay Link) —

I never had slime as a kid, well, not “official Mattel brand” Slime; I did manage some through a grocery store vending machine (so good!) For some reason, I vividly remember this commercial and really wanting the stuff. In hindsight, this sort of thing is almost impossible to ignore when you’re six. 

The Aliens figure (eBay Link)—

These Shogun Warrior knock off figures came out in the late 1970s and are absolutely charming. I’m personally in love with the logo.

Bootleg Visitor ship from “V” (eBay Link)–

We sure did robbed of officially licensed V toys in the 1980s but wow, did bootleggers try to fill that void. I love these little shuttle replicas and the seller has a whole bunch of options. I’ve also heard there is a segment on bootleg V action figures in the latest issue of Toy-Ventures. I know a guy there.

Black Velvet Bruce Lee (eBay Link) —

I don’t think I really need to explain this; it speaks for itself. For those not into Kung Fu, may I offer you this hilarious off-brand Black Velvet Tweety Bird?

Jaws era Shark Puzzle (eBay Link) –

I can’t honestly tell if I like official “Jaws” merchandise more than “Generic Shark meant to look like Jaws” merchandise. They’re both kind of awesome.
