John Travolta by ChemToy

Whatever happened to this guy?

1974 Chemtoy Catalog

Chemtoy was one of America's premiere producer of lower cost novelties and Rack Toys during the 60s and 70s.

Their offering for 1974 was a fun mix of generic staples like bubbles, paddle balls, toy guns that you can still find to this day.

On the licensing side they had everything from Batman to the Groovie Goolies, it's good group of old friends.

Hey! Hey! Hey!

I never ran into these Chemtoy Fat Albert figures as a kid but if I had, they would have so been mine.  I'm not sure why there isn't a Dumb Donald figure staring back at while I type this, what's wrong with me?

Super Scissors

Another one of those products where, once you detach them from the card, they have no real connection to the characters after.

I do love the Batman card though, it looks like Robin is fed up with Batman's need to run with them.

The Day the Scary Creatures Took Over the World

I wanted to save this until Halloween but I just can't wait the 7 months to show this off. This is one of the greatest 70s Rack Toy displays I've ever seen, mostly because it looks like an amalgam of every single "movie for a Sunday afternoon" that scared the living crap out of me as a kid.

I will not rest until it is mine.
