As if my pants inching up higher and the growing need to get those damn kids off my lawn weren’t enough signs I’m getting older, this impulsive idea of mine hits another milestone. Yes, we’re five and I can’t believe how far this has gone and that I’ve stuck to something this long. Seriously, I don’t even finish sandwiches […]
Here are some of the first few fun pics submitted for our 2010 Halloween Countdown Contest (which is still open BTW) these come to us from Jon of Pop Culture Central and it’s him and his brother meeting the Frankenstein Monster at Universal stuidos in the 80s. I rarely get sent classic Monster Appearances so it’s blast to […]

I recently got a copy of a catalog from a Dolgin’s department store (I’ve never heard of them either) and I loved the little images on the cover. People in a mustard yellow store buying mustard yellow things and even though these are likely staged shots, there is some nostalgia to be had. Ah the […]
Going across the ocean today and back 31 years to look at the marvelous talking toys produced by Palitoy Bradgate. While we’re all spoiled by voice chips now, a talking toy was a complicated thing back in the day, involving a tiny record. Palitoy made a variety of these items including the Daleks, Batmobile, heck […]
