Toy-Ventures: The Shadow Toys (Bonus Toy Show)
The Shadow Toys- Toy-Ventures
Toy-Ventures celebrates its 150th-ish episode talking about 70s merchandise based on the Shadow, a radio legend.
We explore the origins of the Shadow character, and talk about the odd merchandising blitz of the late 70s.
Later on, then visit a local toy show! I show the stuff that will haunt me and what I brought home.
Lots to see in the week’s Toy-Ventures.
