This installment of Toy-Ventures showcases toy pick-ups from our annual road trip. I encountered toys from Henshin Cyborg, Buck Rogers, Mego, Clash of the Titans, Planet of the Apes, Big Jim and, of course, Knockoffs!

LJN RoadStars “The Waltons” diecast truck —-(sponsored link)

A lot of people give Mego crap about licensing the Waltons, but they weren’t the only ones making John Boy merch. Case in point, LJN thought this would get noticed in a series that contained the Space:1999 Eagle, the Mystery Machine and Fred Flinstone’s car? I was going to say this was the peg warmer in this line, but the smart money is on the Hogan’s Heroes “bad guy” car.
