We weren’t gonna not do an October show, so we saved until the 31st because HALLOWEEN!

Episode 48 is a celebration of our favourite monster and we discuss his highs (which involve Karloff and Lee) and his lows (which involve Deniro and Jackman) along the way we kibitz about different incarnations, TV versions and as always, TOYS! TOYS! TOYS!

It’s a ghoulishly good time with one of our favourite subjects.

Very happy to showcase my latest video collaboration with Jason Lenzi, this month we tackle one of my passions, Monster action figures in the most appropriate month to do so.

The Tomland Famous Monsters of Legend are one of the rarest sets of monster toys in the world and in this volume we try to give you the basics on a unique line of action figures.

See the video here and don’t forget to subscribe to see our upcoming vintage toy short films.

Thanks for watching, Happy Halloween.

For our 41st episode (and 3rd of 2016 if you’re keeping count) we’re joined by Famous Monsters of Filmland Editor David Weiner (@tikiambassador) for a discussion of all things robotic.


We each pick and discuss our personal three favourite and least favourite mechanical men from film and television over the decades and discuss why. Along the way, we talk about toys, comics and even radio drama.


We open the show with some words about the influence David Bowie and the crummy news that January delivered.


Topics Discussed: Black Hole, Doctor Who, Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy, Phantom Creeps, Millennium, Lost in Space, Buck Rogers, Logan’s Run, Filmation, Space Academy.

Hit us up on our facebook page with your top three best and worst!

Happy New Year! It’s time for our annual salute to all the things that made us happy in 2015, especially those that harkened back to our childhoods and brother, did we have a lot to smile about.


The 2015 Retro Awards salutes the movies, books, magazines and toys we raved about this year and we also talk about special events and end by mourning some of the folks we lost.

• Massacre Mafia Style is the indy 70s production by Duke Mitchell that Brian mentioned.
• Jason chose Beatles One as his favourite DVD of the year.
• Both guys understandably  loved the Bif Bang Pow Flash Gordon line.
• Mego Meet is June 17 this year in Skokie Ill.
• Brian is a big fan of Figures Toy Company’s Superfriends line.
• Shock Cinema Magazine is Brian’s pick for the year.
• Famous Monsters is Jason’s personal choice for best magazine.
• Mego 8 Inch Superheroes: World’s Greatest Toys has been reprinted and available at Figures Toy Company.

Well here is something I’ve never seen before, thanks to my buddy Matt for sharing. This is a Ben Cooper Cousin Eerie Halloween costume based of course on the mascot for the Warren magazine Eerie.that ran for nearly 20 years.

And it’s a great costume too! Nice mask and smock action here.

According to Matt, there is a costume for “Uncle Creepy” as well but it must be rare as he doesn’t own one.

Torn right from the pages of Famous Monsters, the Aurora Monsters of the Movies series is easily one of the “top five” monster kit series of all time.

I’ve posted bits of this before in the dial up days but I don’t think I’ve shown the whole ad.


I’m just in awe, I’d wear the majority of these right now especially the Famous Monsters and Tarzan.

Also, it’s weird to see Shazam! designs yet only one Batman.
