The stuff dreams are made of, a spinner packed to the gills full of rack toys by Henry Gordy inc. Imagine finding this in some long forgotten hardware store somehere. I’d fill my car with Superman Ball Blasters… I don’t get the Hulk handcuffs though unless he was kinda kinky.
While I’ve seen Underoos in catalogs for years, it’s usually just showing the usual Batman and Spider-Man but here’s a rare occasion when they feature one of my favourites Aquaman and not only that but they’re snubbing the caped crusader! It’s crazy hard to find Aquaman merchandise in catalogs, as Rob from the Aquaman Shrine […]
Another fabulous voyage into the world of Rack Toys with the 1979 Azrak Hamway International catalog. Gone are the cool Universal Monster and Planet of the Apes toys of a few years eariler but AHI has continued to expand on it’s comic book offerings mostly inspired by the Incredible Hulk and Fantastic Four television series.All […]
Ron sent in this amazing Hulk appearance picture yesterday and I’m absolutely floored. This is the same Hulk that appears in the Marvel Superheroes: Live and In Person! brouchure and as Ron pointed out (because I probably wouldn’t have noticed it) there are two MIB Mego 12″ Hulks behind him. As for time and period, […]
Finally a bop bag that makes sense, I never understood trying to punch out the Hulk or Mr. Spock (what the hell did he ever do to anybody?) but I totally get wanting to hit a Jawa. They seems to be kind of annoying in the Star Wars universe, they dicker, sell shoddy merchandise, have […]
I’ve mentioned this before but Bop Bags truly confuse me, why would you want to beat the crap out of your favourite character? This Captain America Bop Bag is ever worse, isn’t he the sentinel of liberty? Isn’t throwing a punch at old cap a bit like punching the flag? If you had one of […]
Not a dud in the bunch, although number four is the dreamiest. I think it’s the moustache and the fighting stance, I’m a sucker for both.If you liked yesterday’s blog about Incredible Hulk Toys then you’ll love the one I wrote for Topless Robot entitled The Top Ten Most Incredibly Lame Hulk Toys. It’s a […]
Even though he’s getting another summer blockbuster this year, I still say the Hulk was never more popular than in the late 70’s. The TV series was, in my opinion the thing that made the character the pop culture icon he is today. Merchandising back then went from logical to the truly insane, I mean […]
1980 was a growing year for this offshoot of Azrak Hamway as they expanded their line of Super Hero action figures, reintroduced the Universal Monsters to 80’s kids, while continuing to offer old favorites like Batman utility belts and KISS makeup. Check out the 1980 Remco Catalog here.RRRRRRRRRRRR!Other Remco Catalog links:1976 Remco Catalog1979 Remco Catalog
I used to collect Sleeping bags, talk about a space killer. This spread has me wondering though, what kid wanted the McDonalds characters over say Spider-Man and Hulk or the cool robots from the Black Hole? I can’t imagine unrolling a McDonaldland sleeping bag at Richard Huer’s sleep over back in the day. I think […]
