\nI found this single page in the back of a 1982 Mattel Germany catalog and for some reason it kind of made me sad. The catalog (which I’ll get to) is loaded with pages of cool European Big Jim stuff, Barbie and newcomer He-Man. <\/span>

If you can’t make the show, check me out on twitter<\/a>, where I’ll be showing off some of the goodies available.<\/span>
