Bootleg Stretch Armstrong (sponsored link) —

This is probably a mid-90s item, but I still really dig its incredible crassness. More toys should have “FEEL MY SKIN” on them. That’s fun. That head looks like it’s from another KO item, any ideas hive mind?

Dracula Electronic Hand Held Game (sponsored link)

This was a Japanese game called “Dracula’s Castle,” but this is a US release, and the Dracula on the box appears to be Bobby Moinahan.

The original joke for this was character actor Kenneth MacMillan; this guy looks just like him, but who would get that reference? I even had to look him up. He’s in “Heartbeeps,” which probably doesn’t help matters. 

Either way, that Dracula is from New Jersey.

Prototype Star Trek Decantaur (sponsored link)

My friend Corey sent me this, and he had the better joke about this being about “The Captain’s Log,” while I just wondered why Michael Cera is there. All of this has Spock especially concerned.  This piece is magical, and I’m better for seeing it.

There is also a prototype Kirk head decanter that doubles as Michael Myers?

Hee Haw Purse (sponsored link) –

If you hate being taken seriously, this is the fashion accessory for you! 

Vintage Raideen Tee (sponsored link) —

I must say that if I had this in the 4th grade, it might have helped my social standing.

The Lincoln Monsters Backer Kit Store is now open to the public. After the successful Kickstarter campaign (Thank You Again!), BackerKit is the next chance to get in on the Lincoln Horror Show.

Original art for MTC Blue Thunder toy (Sponsored Link) –

I fondly remember the MTC Blue Thunder gathering dust at Toys R Us next to the Arco V guns as a teen. This isn’t my grail but I sure do think it’s swell. Toy packaging art was the reason I ever picked up a paint brush and it made my life better.

Shogun Warriors Suspenders (Sponsored eBay Link) —

I’m not sure what the connection to Raideen is here, also isn’t that the flag  of Germany?

Fred Flintstone Parachuting Rack Toy (Sponsored eBay Link) —

As silly as these things can be, I haven’t verified anything but I’m certain Fred Flinstone jumped out of a plane at least once. Yes, I’m trying to justify this thing.

Gor King of the Terrons from the UK (sponsored link) 

I have a well-known Hasbro Super Joe addiction, and even sweeter is the line in its UK packaging. Dubbed “Commander Power” in England, Super Joe didn’t do well there either, but LOOK AT THAT GORGEOUS BOX. I want it but can’t afford it right now. It’s good to want things though.

The one and only Mego Meet is this August 17-18, 2024 as part of Zolocon in Warminster, PA. Click here for our Facebook Page or here for our forums.

Doctor Who Action Letraset (sponsored eBay link)–\

This one tasks me, even though some kid already did the transfers, I think that adds to the mystique. I don’t know who drew these things but they were amazing and I love this so much.
