Red Kryptonite has turned Superman into a blob of corn syrup! How will he defeat Godzilla now?I love the lower pic of Elastic Superman hugging Godzilla’s leg, that’s how my daughter fights me. I used to have a couple of these Supermen, one burst and I found a mouse trapped in the corn syrup. Needless […]
I’m working on a Star Wars section for the site (very slowly) and this picture kind of gave me goosebumps, i remember seeing this display in Eaton’s when I was 7. I hadn’t seen Star Wars or really heard of it but I was so drawn to these plastic men I bought one right out. […]
In kindergarten (which was 1974), I played with a type of weird toy where the figures all connected, for hours at a time. I’ve been trying to figure out what they were ever since with no luck, so I just figured they were education toys produced by some anonymous company. Nope, they were produced by […]
Some girls toys for a change today, the 1978 Hasbro Charlies Angels catalog featuring the girls, their fashions and of course, you remember the treehouse they lived in right?
Those that know me, know of my fondness for plush superheroes, especially stuff like the mego super softies. I’ve always found these late seventies characters from Knickerbocker to be terrific but I’m perplexed by the exclusion of Batman, Batman always gets picked for the team!

I have to admit I really liked Star Trek The Motion Picture as a kid, not really the movie itself but the merchandising. As a kid I had all the Mego figures and the styrene bridge playset. I never saw this southbend enterprise or phasers but those would have been once they hit clearance because […]
Alien VS ROM: SpaceknightThat would have made Steve Austin VS Bigfoot look like a tickle fight, I somehow feel cheated I never got to play this as a kid….
While not an instantly recognizable name, Ourways Studios produced some of the wildest superhero merch in the 70’s, heavily advertised in the comics themselves. Best known for their awesome stickers and decals their product features art by some of the true greats like Neal Adams and John Romita. The catalog not only features their product […]
1979 made for some pretty wild Star Wars toys with the sequel still months away, Kenner started deviating from the first film. I must have been getting into The Black Hole at the time because I missed out on toys like the Imperial Troop Transport. The Remote Controlled Sand Crawler was the feature attraction at […]
