Cryotron Carry Case (eBay Link) — This was a Sears Canada exclusive, and I remember that catalogue fondly as it was the first time I saw the Mego Black Hole Humanoid and Old B.O.B. Despite it kind of looking like a “Space Toilet Seat” I dream of finding one packed with figures like the […]
The Hamburglar’s Autograph (eBay Link) — My friend Courtney sent me this, and well, I didn’t know this was a thing. Apparently, the actor who played the Hamburglar, the original “Nightmare Fuel” edition does signings? I can’t imagine anyone faking this. Now, I’m no fan of crowds, but I would go to any Con or […]

DFC the Tower of the Night Playset (eBay Link) — There is nothing I don’t like about this. I mean I had a set like this and wouldn’t need another but looking at that box art just makes want to buy it. It’s like a VHS movie with no pictures on the back of the […]
Street Hawk Wallet by Fleetwood Toys (eBay link) – Oh man, I wish I had one of these in college and also the balls to use it ironically. Mayor McCheese Certificate (eBay Link) — Sure, it’s $30 for a piece of paper but it insures “FUN AND HAPPINESS EVERY DAY!” For that, I’d even […]

The Most Incredible Van in the world (eBay Link) My friend Steve sent me this mainly because it looks like the real-world version of Brick Mantooth’s Van-Tooth.
