Fleetwood Toys was a Rack Toy manufacturer famous for nabbing the hottest licenses from TV and pop culture. For their 1984 catalog, there were a lot of new faces replacing previous characters “CHiPs” was now replaced with “TJ Hooker”, instead of “The Fall Guy” we’ve got the antics of the “A Team”, the Marvel Comics […]
I love the card art on these Imperial jump ropes but it’s kind of funny how once you take your “super pro jump rope” out of the power, you’ve removed any and all relationship it had to Spider-Woman. It is now just “ordinary jump rope with red handles”. Check out our upcoming book!
I can’t believe it’s been three years since I last did a “TV Comix” segment on this blog. To make up for it, I have a pretty big deal from 1979 in the form of the Incredble Hulk. Put on your purple pants and join me after the jump: British Annuals are always a good […]
My buddy Steve sent me this great sales sheet for these awesome Superhero belt buckles I’m sure I saw in the Heroes World catalog when I was in short pants. It’s a wonderful pistache of mid 70s Superhero merchandise, the top tier from both houses are present. It’s kind of funny how these mention “boys […]
Well, not really but this shot of Lou with a Kenner Stretch Monster customized to look like him as the Incredible Hulk is likely the coolest picture you will see today.
Lynch sent in this awesome promotional shot from 1978 used to promote Pizzaz magazine (which I think I bought every issue). I’ve got more of these and I’ll be sharing them for the next few weeks. This Hulk suit must have been new at the time as it doesn’t jive with the weird one I […]
While I can’t recall exactly or not, I’m sure at least once in his many seasons on CBS the incredible Hulk went for a sky dive. I’m also 100% sure that the people of AHI didn’t know or care when producing this parachuting Hulk figure and good on them.
Naming a toy company “Funstuf” is a pretty bold statement, luckily the company more than lived up to it’s namesake during the 1970s and 80s. During the late 1970s, the company was best known for it’s “Aniforms’ line of figures which were a unique concept that involved a rubber figure and an air pump. Funstuff […]
To steal a line from Richard “Lowtax” Kyanka, in 1979 if it was available, it had the Incredible Hulk on it.
Russ sent in this KILLER shot of him with the Hulk (can’t decide who looks more please, the Hulk or Russ) in what he believes is the late 1970s in the now-closed Century Plaza mall in Birmingham, AL. “Now closed mall” always makes me sad to hear. Thanks Russ! Send me your mall appearance photos!
