This spread from 1980 has a lot of familiar faces and fond memories despite me only owning one thing from it as a kid.

1978 Kenner SSP/ Smash Up Derby Catalog
SSP stood for "Super Sonic Power" and it was one of Kenner's flagship brands in the 1970s, mostly because of the popularity of "Smash Up Derby" a toy that combined boys love of cars with their desire to wreck stuff (Genius).
1978 saw a lot of goodness with the introduction of Monsters, Vans and Star Wars to the line, such a cool brew of fun.

Bionic Ink
I recently met a fellow named Shannon through facebook and he shared his amazing 70's toylove body art with me. Above is his tribute to the Kenner Bionic Man doll.
The Marx Green Machine was the stuff of legend where I grew up, every kid wanted one.
It all ends with this brilliant tribute to Kenner's Smash Up Derby. My thanks to Shannon for sharing these, tattoo's and 70's toys make sense considering Dr. Steel was the first action figure with one.
