Slumber Fun!
I love that this page from 1982 still has some of the more solid 70s designs like that DC comics Super heroines design with the more trendy characters like Pac-Man and the Dukes. Wish I could collect these but they are space killers!

Even though a Spider-Man that gently strolls in a Barnaby Jones like manner is something no kid needs, who […]

Rarely discussed here but Rack Toy manufacturer AHI had a second life as a manufacturer of pool related novelties, one of these days I’ll pull up one of the catalogs.
