Super 7 Puffy Stickers by Imperial Toys

It’s been a while since I got anything new in my quest to own all merchandise from my favourite saturday morning show,  Tarzan and the Super 7. Lucky for me I found a sweet deal on a complete set of Imperial stickers based on all the characters! More after the jump. 

1974 Chemtoy Catalog

Chemtoy was one of America’s premiere producer of lower cost novelties and Rack Toys during the 60s and 70s. Their offering for 1974 was a fun mix of generic staples like bubbles, paddle balls, toy guns that you can still find to this day. On the licensing side they had everything from Batman to the […]

Pod Stallions Episode 24: Starlog

Our November podcast has Jason and Brian waxing nostalgic (which technically is our job) about the glory days of Starlog magazine. Starlog magazine was how both of us first cut our nerdy teeth, a wonderful window into the world of SF and fantasy that gave us that connection. It’s safe to say, this podcast owes […]

Costume Spotlight: Web Woman

I know it seems odd that I’m excited to own a girl’s Halloween costume but this is Web Woman, one of the seven of Filmation’s “Tarzan and the Super 7” fame that I’ve been obsessed with since i was 9. I’ve been looking for this costume for years and managed to get it for $20, […]

Again with the Space Sentinels

  Less than a month ago i posted the Hercule magnetic figure I found from this series, a kindly reader pointed this out to me. The Space Sentinels explorer, even has a sign to avoid confusions.

More Space Sentinels

Hey! Hey! Hey!

I never ran into these Chemtoy Fat Albert figures as a kid but if I had, they would have so been mine.  I’m not sure why there isn’t a Dumb Donald figure staring back at while I type this, what’s wrong with me? Rack Toys: Cheap, Crazed Playthings is a limited edition 144 page book […]

Manta & Moray Bubble Animal

Yet another addition to my burgeoning Tarzan and the Super 7 collection of Rack Toys, Manta and Moray were the Aquaman and Mera of the Filmation superhero universe.  DC sued Filmation which is why we never saw more of the duo. Rack Toys: Cheap, Crazed Playthings is a limited edition 144 page book from the […]

Isis knows what time it is

Another item in my mad obsession with Filmation’s “Tarzan and the Super 7” merchandise, which 99% rack toy based. I’ve had this boy’s watch for a while but this is my first girl’s version. This picture from the catalog suggests I’ve got more to track down. Come on Super Stretch! Rack Toys: Cheap, Crazed Playthings […]

We’ve probably mentioned Filmation in every one of our shows (it’s our anniversary BTW, what did you get us?) so it’s no surprise that Jason and myself are huge fans of the legendary animation company. Episode one explore our earliest memories of Filmation and tries to relay the Saturday morning experience, look for a longer […]
