Planet of the Apes Prison Wagon- (eBay Link)– I’ve probably featured this toy before but who cares? It’s definitely one of my favourite Apes toys ever. I just love the little astronaut THIS MUCH. The seller also has the classic Planet of the Apes Helicopter and a bunch of other stuff I need. Iron Man […]

We talk about the latest news from Mego Corp, take a look at the show floor and then I share my haul, which was pretty incredible.

Space Ace Rack Toy (eBay Link) – I remember waiting in a long line to play “Dragon’s Lair” at an arcade at the CNE one summer. I put in a dollar(!) and died immediately. So I’ve never played Space Ace. Obviously, these games were the future, but this system was problematic for me at least. […]

5 Awesome Things on eBay this week- Plaidstallions McDonald’s Captain Crook Promotional Hats (eBay Link) – I’ve never in my life had a “Fillet O’Fish” sandwich, and that ain’t changing (allergic), but if they were handing these out in the 1970s? I’d have pushed people down to get one. I liked freebies a whole bunch. […]
Star Trek: The Motion Picture Belt Buckle (eBay Link) – This belt buckle is almost as big as the ones in the movie; they were “Graceland” big. What makes me laugh is, did anyone walk out of that movie with a desire to copy that dress sense? Vintage 70s Spider-Man kids shirt […]
Photoshop fun with Mego Planet of the Apes! Working on issue 10 of Toy-Ventures Magazine, and for no good reason, I thought it might be fun to try and recreate the artwork of the beautiful accessories boxes. I am something of an impulsive creature. My first attempt is the Planet of the Apes Jail, a […]
Batman Crazy Foam (eBay Link)– I was obsessed with Crazy Foam as a kid, still am. I am just glad I don’t have a fetish where people in superhero costumes puke on me. That would be messy. Mexican Planet of the Apes Record (eBay Link)– I have zero idea what kind of music this […]
