Palitoy Action Girl Movie set (sponsored link)

Palitoy’s Action Girl was a really cool line of articulated fashion dolls with some interesting “Super Sets” including a space themed one this is wicked cool!

The idea of a fashion doll filming a historical drama shows a genuine care in creating an enjoyable and unique environment with these sets. 

Mayor McCheese Slippers (sponsored link)

So, when I was a kid, my grandparents had a shoe store in our local mall and they actually sold these! I desperately wanted a set but my parents told me they didn’t order in my size. Now, I just accepted that as a kid and haven’t thought of it since, but I do have a sneaking suspicion that my parents just thought they were ugly. I’m guessing that I’ll never find them in a 15 wide now.

McGruff the Crime Dog Table Ware (sponsored link)

Now you can not only take a bite out of crime but also a sip? I got nothing, google what happened to the McGruff voice actor if you haven’t already…

Sesame Street Grover Necklace (sponsored link)

My favourite Muppet of all time is Grover, it’s impossible for me to not smirk when I see him. I named my dog (a girl) “Grover” as a kid and my mother’s reading of the “Monster at the end of the book” inspired me to top it for my kids. Grover rules but let’s face it, he’s a crappy waiter.

Harlem Globetrotters Wizzard Wheel (sponsored link)

My friend Matt sent me this and I dig this beautiful and very 70s card art. The Globetrotters cartoon was a fave around these parts. It even inspired me to shoot hoops in my driveway for the entirety of the late 70s. I suck!

Issue #13 of Toy-Ventures Magazine will feature the never-before-seen plans for the 1983 World’s Greatest Superheroes toy line and a cover featuring artwork specially commissioned for Mego’s catalogue, gloriously coloured by Robyn Adams, founder of the Mego Museum.
