Pod Stallions 126: Who Mourns for Doctor Who?

Pod Stallions 126: Who Mourns for Doctor Who?

We know what you’re thinking. With a headline like that, we’re bound to be Who-bashing all episode, right? (You might also be thinking, ‘bout time they showed up!).

Au contrair, my friends. Doctor Who is one of the many things that brought us together as friends, and is something we love deeply. With recent news reports and all the online chatter about the current state of New Who (still considered ‘new’ after a 20-year return!) and its possible exit, it felt like a good time and good subject to explore on our return from hiatus.

So close the door, hit the Tardis controls from ‘Way Back’ to ‘Present Day’ and prepare to walk in eternity as we give our two pence on all that’s gone down and up with everyone’s favourite Time Lord.

Just remember to reverse the polarity of the neutron flow before you leave

The post Mego Micronauts + Superheroes = MAGNA HEROES: Vintage Mego appeared first on PS.

Collectible erasers were the one thing a kid could sneak into School without fear of being taken away, a brilliant concept that kept the company afloat.

Many of these items were evergreens and sold for decades, I personally bought those Flintstones erasers when “Canada’s Wonderland” opened in the early 1980s.

My grandparents owned a shoe store and exclusively used those Speedy Shoe erasers, I’m pretty sure I still have some.

Diener made different figurines over the years including Kung Fu characters and Alien Creatures that are quite collectible now.

Disney was something of a cash cow in the 1970s it seems.

Those Dinosaurs were owned by all, including me..

The Disney gang sure got around.

New Zoo Revue seemed to be the big get this year.

Gabriel’s Show N Tell came out when I was ten years old, so I’m not surprised I didn’t notice it back then, I was all about action figures at that point.

A really novel approach to the “Book and Record” format I loved, I can’t imagine it had a long life at retail with affordable VCRs looming closer and closer….
