Chaz Meets Spidey
Many thanks to Chaz Rose for this killer pic, Chaz tells me he brought a Mego Spiderman and asked him “Is this You?” How awesome is that?More Mall Appearances
When I grow up I want to be….
Although before my time, I kind of dig these early seventies play suits which I’m sure doubled as Halloween costumes. I love how boys can be Batman, Superman and the Lone Ranger but the girl’s choices are more grounded in reality. Dig the ears on the bat suit, looks like the 40’s movie serial version. […]
Thwip? Thwip?
In 1976, I switched camps and decided that Marvel superheroes were now the way to go, so Spider-Man was what I needed to be that Halloween. Despite my adventures the year previous as “The Bat“, my costume hunting was again done at the same Woolco store that had what seemed like a gigantic rack of […]
Pajama-Rama
Loving the props in this one, especially the feats of strength although I don’t know why the Spock kid is lifting a dumbell. The Kirk PJs in the corner show the Captain in an episode called the Tholian Web, I have to admit, I’ve never seen that episode. I’m a bad trekkie. Halloween Countdown Submission: […]
Spider-Man in Minnesota
Dave aka Kinostadt at the MegoMuseum Forums sent in these awesome additions to the Superhero Mall Appearance Gallery. This is Spiderman from a 1979 mall appearance in Minnesota. Dave is holding a piece of paper top get Spidey to sign. Got a Vintage Mall Appearance Shot you want to share? Whether it’s from the seventies […]
The 1979 AHI Catalog means more Rack Toys!
Another fabulous voyage into the world of Rack Toys with the 1979 Azrak Hamway International catalog. Gone are the cool Universal Monster and Planet of the Apes toys of a few years eariler but AHI has continued to expand on it’s comic book offerings mostly inspired by the Incredible Hulk and Fantastic Four television series.All […]
Slumber Bags
Wow! Slumber bags are much nicer than those crappy sleeping bags they sell at Woolco. I feel all classy saying it that way.
Wall Crawling Goodies
With the recent addition of Star Trek and Planet of the Apes and Batman galleries to the Azrak Hamway section of the site, it was important to get this guy involved. Next to Batman, Spider-Man was AHI’s most popular characters and he recieved an incredible amount of merchandise. Which is weird considering that Peter Parker […]
Diecast Heroes
Corgi was a legend in the diecast car industry, certainly because of the quality and it’s licensed goods. Corgi was best known to children of the Seventies as the maker of “that batmobile” we all owned. By 1978, Corgi was grabbing every TV movie license it could and producing some of the finest diescast toy […]
Utini This!
Finally a bop bag that makes sense, I never understood trying to punch out the Hulk or Mr. Spock (what the hell did he ever do to anybody?) but I totally get wanting to hit a Jawa. They seems to be kind of annoying in the Star Wars universe, they dicker, sell shoddy merchandise, have […]
