Bootleg Star Wars X-Wing Model (sponsored link) —

If there was anything that screamed “1979,” it’s this thing. We were so awash in weird X Wings and Tie Fighters at the time. I like this design better than most.

The Adventures of Metal-Man Flying Saucer (sponsored link) —

These Metal Man vehicle sets are an obsession of mine (I put the video below), and this, to me, is the best set they made. Radon and his Flying Saucer is my favourite, and this set even still have the dome the figure is in. Someday, I will own one of those domes…..

Japanese Popeye Model Kit (sponsored link) —

Now Popeye is no stranger to merchandise, but a model kit is a new one for me, especially from Japan! It’s motorized because Japanese kids enjoy building their own toys. What a nice pallet cleanser for the week!

Chicklets Play Pal (sponsored link)–

It’s gum! It’s a toy! It’s Play pal! We run an article about these and Chewgum Warriors in Toy-Ventures issue 7. I don’t think that gum is still good, it would probably mess people up.

Message from Space Sticker Album (sponsored link) —

So this sticker book is based off the “Message from Space” TV Spin Off “Galactic Wars: which did get syndicated to other countries and spawning merch. When I was in the 6th grade, a kid from my class went to South America and brought back tons of these cards. They blew my mind. I’d seen “Message from Space,” but there were Apes and other aliens on these cards, nowhere to be seen in the movie. I actually bought the cards from him and still have a couple. It’s so cool to see the booklet finally.

Also, there was a dubbed compilation movie called “Sword of the Space Ark” or “Space Ninjas”. If you have a copy, please get in touch with me as I would really like to watch it.
