The Adventures of GI Joe (in France)
I kind dig that GI Joe’s adventures continued in Europe long after the US handed him his walking papers. More Foreign Joe
Gi Joe: Action Pals for Adventure
My first action figure love was the GI Joe Adventure team, truly the gateway experience for a pretty happy childhood. No matter how many times I see the art on those wonderful painted boxes, I feel five years old. I seriously hope that never fades. Here are some fun links to explore on the site: […]
Marvel Superheroes Pinball
Blame the Avengers for my Marvel comics kick this week, I remember getting one of these Hasbro pinball games for my eight birthday. My neighbour got it for me because he knew I liked Captain America, it was cool and I loved the art but I didn’t play with it much. Mostly because my dad […]
Spider-Man Ricochet Racers
Ricochet racers were a cool concept on their own, it’s a neat looking laser gun looking rifle that shot cars! Sprinkle in Spider-Man and Captain America and few kids could resist them.
1975 Christmas Toy Store Flyer
Newspaper circulars for toy stores are a tough thing to find, often thrown out immediately it’s a shame when you realzie what a wonderful window into our world they truly are. Take this one for a store called “Hagensick’s Playroom” (great name) in Wisconsin, which features a veritible “who’s who” of hot items for the […]
PodStallions 21: Bionic Man-ia
It was bound to happen, episode 21 talks of the Six Million Dollar Man television series which slow motion ran across our television screens (and our collective hearts) during the Polyester decade. In this we discuss the series itself, the spin offs and the crazy/wonderful merchandise that made Christmas more memorable. We go through the […]
Bulletman International
My passion for Hasbro’s Bulletman knows know bounds, the figure in the foreground is the first thing I ever purchased at a toy show (sadly almost 30 years ago). The other two are international variations of the figure that I’m proud to now own, more after the jump! My latest addition is the UK version […]
Monster Hunt Game
I found this game at a toy show a while back, it’s dated 1977 and is made by Hasbro but I have no recollection of ever seeing it before. The vendor was a friend and told me to take it for five dollars, i hadn’t bought anything that day so it was a pretty quick […]
Hasbro Charlie’s Angels
I always loved how Hasbro gave the Angels a van and matching uniforms, they looked like some sort of sexy girl group. Hmmm, a sexy girl group all clad in spandex who drive around in a van and solve mysteries? I’ve got a pilot script to write. Should take me three hours, tops.
1975 Hasbro GI Joe Catalog
1975 was a very good year for G.I. Joe, well at least from where I stood, seeing as I was five at the time. The whole Joe line got a make over including the man himself a new more muscular body, gone were the solid boxes in lieu of blister cards. The Ad campaign this year was […]
