In the “amazing surprises in my mailbox” category comes this awesome find from Scott, who recently found this “Sword of Izzur” from the fabled PAC Toys “Lords of Light” toyline,  which was a reimagining of the “Micronauts” toys after Mego went bankrupt. We’ve done a Toy-Ventures episode on this range:

The thing about this sword is, if you asked anybody, they’d say it doesn’t exist, until now. Which brings up the happiest question ever, what else is out there? Hopefully we have another amazing discovery soon, my heart is aflutter.

PlaidStallions Toy-Ventures Magazine #1 is now available and it’s been called “not only an entertaining read, but it’s also an impeccable work of reference” by PopCult.
