Colouring Book Theatre: Shogun Warriors
‘Shogun Warriors: Dragun” I have to admit, I was excited when I found scans of this book over at (sponsor) Sherryloutoys website. Mostly because it was free but also because Marvel’s “Shogun Warriors” comic usually took my 35 cents if there wasn’t a new issue of “Star Wars” or “Micronauts” on the rack. I was […]
Italian Shogun Warriors
Mattel marketed their successful “Shogun Warriors” toy line not only in North America but to Europe as well. What’s fun about all international toy lines in the 1970s were the things that were different or at times, additional. And the Italian Shogun Warriors line does not disappoint, while Godzilla is strangely absent, Goldrake a popular […]
A girl and her Gaiking
Marty sent in this fantastic family portrait and as she explains “I was maybe one of the few girls who preferred robots and Star Wars toys”. This family portrait from her eleventh is proof of this, pictured are Marty, her mom & dad, cat Tiger and “new baby brother” Gaiking. I’m at a loss for […]
Shogun Warrior PJs
OMG, these things are so super cool. I miss the days of toy lines with absolutely no back story.
Nerd Therapy Session: So-Dumb Warrior
First off, thank you for the incredibly kind response to last week’s entry. It’s extremely comforting to know I was not alone because that would have been pretty terrible. My next tale of nerd-woe jumps me to 1986, I had started drifting away from collecting comic books and jumped into collectibles, specifically sci fi based toys. Actually, it […]
Kidco Silver Warriors/Space Defenders Catalog
Kidco (a pretty logical name for a toy company) made some pretty unassuming toys during the 1970s, the most interesting items they produced in 1979 are not one but two different lines of Shogun Warrior inspired toys. Sliver Warriors and Space Defenders are the things you find at toy shows or in lots and have […]
1978 Mattel Shogun Warriors Catalog
Today’s Friday feature puts us in 1978 and the Mattel Shgoun Warriors line is in full swing with new additions such as the king of all monsters Godzilla! Which in terms of additions to teams, is pretty spectacular. It’s a Jumbo Machinder goodtime with the 1978 Mattel Shogun Warriors Catalog. More Shogun Warriors
Checking out ‘Zilla
This is the Mattel booth at a regional toyfair where the newest thing is the Mattel Shogun Warriors Godzilla doll. In the background I can see more Shogun Warriors and the Galactica Logo. Call me a nerd but I really dig on this vintage toy industry insider stuff.
