Hopping over to the UK today for this weekend’s mall appearance with shots from a 1979 appearance of Action Man in Blackpool. To those not in the know AM is the UK version of G.I. Joe, although Action Man had more of a paramilitary flavour and was wildly popular, in 1979 he was outselling Star […]
Third in our series of wonderful contributions to the site from Dan, this time we see Wonder Woman capturing the penguin. This is like a live action version of one of my favourite Mego toys: And if you have anything to add, I’d be your friend for life.
Second in our series of wonderfulcontributions to the site from Dan, this time we see Wonder Woman about to encounter the Penguin. I’d like to make a comment about how I’ve seen better Penguin outfits but I honestly haven’t, the only other Pengun I’ve seen came from this show. Stay tuned next week for the […]
This is is the first of many cool contributions to the site from Dan, the shot above is a great pic of the Wonder Woman from the show. I’d have been fooled as a kid. And if you have anything to add, I’d be your friend for life.
Completing the trifecta of awesome sent in by Scott during “Frogtown Frolics”, at Thompson Park in Colts Neck, NJ. It’s the classic Spider-Man appearance shot, notice that Scott is clutching a Mego Spiderman doll. Scott equates this event as not unlike “The Beatles at Shea Stadium” it’s not hard to see why.Thanks for the great […]
Here’s Scott C with another shot from “Frogtown Frolics”, at Thompson Park in Colts Neck, NJ. This time it’s Batman and Robin and even though Scott admits they looked kinda bogus, it was still a big thrill to meet heroes in costume like this. It looks to me like the 36 year old “boy wonder” […]
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 […]
Cat sent in this “1970something” shot of him shaking hands with none other than Burt Ward in full Robin regalia at a Rockford Car Show. Ward still looks like he jumped out of 1966 here, so it really must have been to meet Robin live and in person like that. Send me your mall appearance […]
As promised last week, more of the Apes visiting Plymouth Hoe circa 1977. Again, I cannot begin to explain how wonderfully cool and trippy this all is. Check out Derek’s awesome blog dedicated to Plymouth local histoy and stay tuned for much more coolness from him. General Urko plans to whip humans here I gather. […]
Derek (the man responsible for this awesomeness) strikes again, this time it’s some vintage shots of the Apes visiting Plymouth Hoe circa 1977. I cannot tell you how jealous of this I am, I was Apes crazy at this point and there was nothing happening in Canada. Check out Derek’s awesome blog dedicated to Plymouth […]
