Kenner Bionic Woman Designer Dresses (eBay Link) —

Catalogue mailer items are one of those things I admire, and as a toy collector, I feel they add a charm to everything. I don’t collect Bionic Woman, but I think this set is unique. yes, I know water stains are gross; I get it, but it’s a cool one-of-a-kind item, and I can see past that.

Remco “The Bad Guys” Chopper (eBay Link) —

Remco was good at sneaking into a kid’s toy box. It wasn’t GI Joe, but it felt close, and there is no way your mom could tell Cobra from the Bad Guys logo. No, I won’t believe you had a “SUPERMOM” that could do that. If so, deep envy, mad respect. I hate you.

Batman String Art (eBay link)

Remember a couple of weeks back when I threatened an “All Batman Crafting” installment? Yeah, I was not kidding. String Art seems to have dipped severely since the middle 1970s but it sure did peak. I love stuff like this and I also love how the box design is lazy but also letting the character art sell it.

Lone Ranger Carson City Playset (eBay Link) —

I don’t collect the fantastic Gabriel Lone Ranger toy line but I do admire the care in which it was made. Just look at this gorgeous thing, it’s huge too!

Dune Panini Stickers and album (eBay link) –

Imagine the lucky kid who got the “boil scraping” sticker, which I assume was gold foil or the hologram sticker of a heart plug being pulled out. Hooo doggie, Dune was not understood by it’s licensors.
