I love this assortment from 1969, the majority of these characters would end up on costumes for decades. Promotion for these was done on TV spots but not in the usual manner but through participation with the myriad of local kid’s shows that peppered the landscape at the time. Here are a couple of photos: […]
Oh to have a rainy afternoon with these two sets as a kid. Riddler to beam up!
I thought it would be fun today to talk about a Star Trek action figure line that nobody really ever does, from 1984 let’s explore the ERTL toys Star Trek 3 line and I’ve even got prototype shots! More about this fun (and very affordable) line after the jump! So after the merchandising disaster of […]

Due to having two official languages, we had different toy packages than the US and brother, it’s tough to find. Hunting these is my […]
I absolutely love Star Trek: The Motion Picture merchandise, especially because I could still buy the majority of it at stores when I was in college.
This picture, from the 1977 Palitoy Bradgate Catalog is so much like my childhood (and adult dreams) it’s scary. I love a world where the Star Trek crew can mingle with the Fantastic Four and take on Doctor Zaius. You can see the whole thing at the Mego Museum.
Time for a rare un-boxing and photo review of a modern toy. While I mainly try to avoid modern stuff, some of it embraces my inner child wishlist that it demands to be purchased.
