Hulk vs Stretch Monster
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!

Scott sent in this first in a series of three awesome pics that were taken at an event called the “Frogtown Frolics”, at Thompson Park in Colts Neck, NJ. It’s an appearance by the late 70s Marvel Hulk costume. Scott also laments that when Spider-Woman visited Child World in 1981, he couldn’t get close enough […]
Another player in the world of Rack Toys was Henry Gordy International, who specialized in somewhat generic impulse items with licensed appearance. Among their staples is my new favourite thing mostly because I’m immature: The “Ball Blaster” would indeed be an effective crime deterrent even Lex Luthor himself would think twice.The primary licenses used here […]
The beginning of the end for the Rack Toy giant, while the company would continue and prosper for the rest of the decade, it would also eventually fold it’s toy division completely under the Remco Name. The 1981 AHI catalog almost looks like a lower cost copy of the 1981 Remco offerings, all the licenses […]
