This is one of the coolest things I’ve shown in a while, a kid sized Eagle one. Also, unlike a lot of the stuff I show here, this actually got made! Thirsty for more Space:1999 Toys? check out these links for the 1976 and 1977 Mattel Toys Catalogs… . .
These were possible the oddest things I spied at last month’s Mego Meet show. A set of home made Space:1999 plush figures, nerdy high school art project or a really well meaning Grandmother? We’ll never know. Eyes up here Martin Landau! More Space:1999
Beach towels are a facet of merchandise that kind of fascinates me, mostly because you just don’t see them very often. I guess that’s because people used them for their intended purpose, I remember my Wonder Woman and Star Wars towels were pretty much rags by the end. Seeing a strapping image of Martin Landau […]
I think the Space:1999 stun gun is one of the most iconic Sci-Fi weapons ever created. As a kid, I used a Staple gun until I nabbed the AHI water gun pictured above, it’s the most screen accurate toy produced in the 1970s IMO. AHI had a year of Star Trek sales under their […]
This wonderful piece from December 1977 arrived this week and while I plan to show case the whole thing in loving detail next Christmas, it’s just to good not to share at least a little bit right now. Above is the Mattel Space:1999 Eagle which I think is on my 2014 wish list. I think […]
Seeing all the Doctor Who merchandise in main stream stores this Christmas makes me nostalgic for the time when all Sci Fi shows were marketed towards kids. Space:1999 mania was in full swing in 1976 and it produced buckets of memotable merchandise. That big Eagle is still something I plan on reacquiring in 2014.. On the […]
Road stars were a fun little series of cheap diecast vehicles that used popular licenses like Spider-Man, Archie, Hogan’s Heroes (!) and Space:1999. There is a lot wrong with this card, in today’s world these would all have to be shipped back to the manufacturer or destroyed. First, Space:1999 isn’t a Hanna Barbera production, secondly, […]
Here is the coolest pic you will see all day, make it your happy place.
I’m not sure what I like most about this piece, the fact that it’s clearly just a regular Doctor kit repackaged, that it never shows the Doctor character from Space:1999 or the wonderfully awesome, over the top image of Martian Landau on the card. Gotta go with Landau…. Rack Toys: Cheap, Crazed Playthings is a […]
This toy by AHI is pretty topical considering last week’s Gerry Anderson centric pod cast. I don’t own it but I am lucky enough to know the owner, so I had the opportunity to photograph it at this year’s MegoMeet. Turns out this piece is crazy rare, even rarer then the Superfriends buggy I drool […]
