Ben Cooper Dr. Strange Halloween Costume (eBay Affiliate Link) __

Doctor Strange got some merch in the late 1970s and early 1980s, likely due to his 1978 CBS TV movie that did not go to series. The Ben Cooper merch (including the Jigger) has this weirdly angry face for some reason. I think it works, but I have always pictured the character as a cool cucumber.

Milton Bradley Micronauts Board Game (SPONSORED LINK)-

Someone posted this in the PodStallions group and it serves as a reminder as to how much I want a copy of this. It’s part board game and part Amsco Adventure set. 

The Shadow Bagatelle Game (affiliate link) —

The middle 70s explosion of Shadow Merchandise, primarily from the Toymaker/Pharmaceutical company “Madison Industries,” is one that perplexes me. However, the toys also are really cool, so it evens out.

Here is a recent episode of Toy-Ventures about the Madison Imports Shadow merch.

Child Guidance Kentucky Fried Chicken Playset (affiliate link) —

I can barely get to eat the Col.’s chicken anymore but wow, such happy memories of it as a kid. If anybody has that little Col. for sale? I am your new best friend. I’m also in the market for some Grecian bread.

Popy Jumbo Machinders Catalog (affiliate link) —

As a toy catalog collector for the last 40 years, this one is tasking me. I’m not immune to Shogun Warriors and well, I really can’t afford to go the “Machinder route.”

Col Sanders Action Figure in car (eBay Link)-–

This is from a larger playset, but if I saw this at an antique mall, it would HAVE to come home with me. Like the Hamburglar, the Col. rocks my world. Although I can’t remember the last time I ate there. 

A big old bunch of Presto Magix (eBay Link) —

Wow this is just a big old bunch of childhood! I remember this wave at my local variety store, I mainly fixated on the superhero stuff, I had forgotten about Baseball. 

FunStuf Spider-Man Webshooter and Hulk Flying Fist (eBay Link) —

These are rack toy royalty to me and I can’t believe I don’t own a set. The web shooter I’ve wanted since the Heroes World ad days. Although, I did cool on it after I was told that it couldn’t possibly support my weight. 

World of Sid and Marty Krofft Souvenir (eBay Link) —

Another item from the fabled indoor amusement park that I never got to visit. This is pretty brilliant, the Krofft version of mouse ears.

Filmation Freedom Force Animation Cel (eBay Link) —

My passion for the Filmation series “Tarzan and the Super 7” is unlimited.  I especially loved the Freedom Force, a Justice League of Filmation’s superheroes led by Isis. If this had Super Samurai, it would be hanging in my basement.

We’re having a massive sale at our shop.
