Ernie Production Mold from Sesame Street (sponsored link) —

These are unique pieces of toy history and I’ve own a couple of them in my time. The trouble is, they look like this and are usually heavy to ship. Neat though.

Zee Toys Metal Man Sears Catalog Gift Set (sponsored Link)

Oh boy do I want this set, I’ve tried to get it half a dozen times in my 29-year (uck!) history on eBay. This one tasks me with its beauty and use of colour but it’s not a good time. BTW the backdrop is just from the saucer box.

Spider-Man Confessions of a Rock Superhero Record Store Display – Sponsored link

As much of a Spider-Man guy that I am, I don’t think I’ve ever listened to this. I’ve always figured if it was really good, I’d know about it.

Fame The Beach Towel based on the TV series “Fame” based on the movie “Fame” -(sponsored link)

Ever since I found that colouring book at Zolocon, I’ve been surprised that Fame (a show I will admit I am mostly apathetic about) has so much merchandise. I sure hope there is a “Paperchase” beach Towel with a big John Houseman on it. That would be cool.

Ceramic Ninja Music Box from Japan (sponsored link)-

Wow, does my sitting room feel naked without this.

Knock-Off Charlie’s Angels outfits (affiliate link) –

I had no idea such things existed until this week, I have to share it! The name “Daring Darlings” is much work compared to “Chuck’s Halo Gals.” This is why they pay me the mid-size bucks, folks! Likable mediocrity!

-Krofft Supershow Lunch Box (affiliate link)

Terrible confession time: I don’t own one of these! If I’ve let you down, I’ll, of course, understand. I’m a total fraud. *runs away, sobbing*

Seriously, it just hasn’t happened yet but I hope it does.

Sears GI Joe Adventure Team Box (affiliate link)–

It’s an empty box, I get it. I never saw or knew of it as a kid, I get it. I don’t need to go down this rabbit hole, I get it.

But why do I want it so bad that it’s making me nuts?

Whitman Star Wars 3 Pack of Marvel Reprints (affiliate link)—

My pal Corey mentioned getting Whitman 3-packs at gas stations as a kid over the weekend and well, that got me searching. This one is forever etched in my mind, so much so that on my son’s birthday, one year, I bought him this issue. #16, one of my favourites, he still has it!

Harmony Toys Scooby Doo Fire Chief Toy (affiliate link) –

Over the years, I’ve been perplexed by the choices a toy company called Harmony has made. I’m almost sure it’s some “hipster time traveller” making weird crap so I talk about it. Case in point, the shoddiest fireman and dalmation repainted to look barely like Shag and Scoob? Whoever approved this probably got vermouth on it.
