Zoodleland!
Not that I ever had these but I certainly remember these (kind of weird) animals turned into appliances that seemed to sell well during the 1970s. These were made by a company called Kusan whom most boys will remember for this cool toy.
New PS Trading Cards!
It’s been a long while since i printed up some new PS trading cards, mostly because of spending my time with Rack Toys (still available!) but this month I resolved to make some new entries. The first is card #40, the Whip from the Big Jim’s Wolfpack line of toys. I had been doing the […]
Hasbro Charlie’s Angels
I always loved how Hasbro gave the Angels a van and matching uniforms, they looked like some sort of sexy girl group. Hmmm, a sexy girl group all clad in spandex who drive around in a van and solve mysteries? I’ve got a pilot script to write. Should take me three hours, tops.
1975 Hasbro GI Joe Catalog
1975 was a very good year for G.I. Joe, well at least from where I stood, seeing as I was five at the time. The whole Joe line got a make over including the man himself a new more muscular body, gone were the solid boxes in lieu of blister cards. The Ad campaign this year was […]
Endangered Animals by Revell
I miss the days of figure model kits being easy to find, now it seems that hobby stores on the endangered species list. I try to put together at least a couple of kits a year with my kids
Poppin’ Fresh family
I still have my Poppin’ Fresh family which includes grandparents, I’m not sure why. My theory is they were either given to me or a hammy down from my sister. I can’t imagine they ever made my Christmas list, although I do have an addiction to wiener wraps.
Space:1999 Wrist Radio
There is something so satisfying about a low tech item being sold as something from the future. I’m sure the denizens of moon base Alpha kept the dial on 1050 for traffic and weather on the ones.
Big Jim speaks!
How I loved my talking Big Jim when I was four and if I can find it kicking around here, I remember that back pack still worked at the last pull. A lot of stuff gets said about Jim these days but he rocked my world as a kid.
Fisher Price appreciation day
I hereby decree this day Fisher Price appreciation day, have you called your little people and thanked them yet?
Kenner’s The Tramp
I found this image in an early 70s Kenner catalog, at one point they were trying to market Charlie Chaplin to kids. I was aware of silent movies as a kid (mostly Laurel and Hardy) but this seems a bit of a reach to me, I guess toy buyers felt that way too because I […]
