Spotlight: The Original Stretch Armstrong by Jazwares
I haven’t done a photo review in over a year? Thank goodness for the new Jazwares Original Stretch Armstrong. In the past few years, there’s been talk of a movie and even an animated series but the only thing I give a toss about is a reproduction of the big guy himself. I’ll explain (and […]
Bionic Classroom
I was slightly deceived by the title “Bionic Classroom” as a kid, I assumed it would be a playset where Steve and Jaime did cool Bionic things. Nope, it’s just Jaime’s work, a school that seems to be located at the airport and judging by the chalkboard, she’s blown her cover…..

Kenner Give-A-Show

Star Wars at Osco
Man, this image is simple but packs a powerful memory punch to Christmas time 1979, that second wave of SW figures was pretty exciting. I may get it put on a T Shirt.
Bionic Marvels!
That communicator works up to ten feet away! I’m telling you technology will never get any better….
When the Jedi Return: Make sure your troops are ready
I love this neat British Ad for Palitoy UK, who were pretty confident they were going to sell football fields full of Star Wars toys (psssst they did). I’m especially smitten with these drawings of the figures which are there because the ad was placed so far in advance of the film.
Star Wars X Wing Aces
While I’m not the world’s biggest Star Wars guy, I am kind of surprised to have zero memory of this wonderfully low tech game. Admittedly as a kid, I dumped all other toys into the “Not Action Figures” section, this one draws a complete blank. This is probably the fault of old age or booze, […]
