Bee-Gee's Fever- Catch it!


I never got the fever although i didn't mind the brothers Gibb. Years later my teenage son would start playing BeeGee's records loudly, I guess that's how you rebel against parents who still listen to GWAR.





We live in sad "Dog earless" times people.

Superhero AM Radios


What was your AM Radio as a kid? Mine was "Little Sprout" from the "Green Giant" commercials, I assume my mother won it.

It was pretty cool but my older sibling had an FM radio in her room, so i mainly just kept my door open so I could hear Black Sabbath.

Space Wars figures



With all the mishbegosh about Star Wars, I'd thought I'd end the week with these Space characters from the 1978 Vanity Fair catalog. I sure hope these got made because I love them.

Jeering Joker and Glaring Gorilla


"Feel like Batman triumphing over his arch-enemy" yup, the ol' caped crusader just loves to kill in cold blood, with a gun. 

I'm beginning to think Frank Miller got his start in the toy industry.

Top Five Things on Ebay this Week



Original Santa Claus conquers the Martians one sheet- I'm a huge fan of this weird kids movie that honestly gets a bad rap for being terrible, it's a lot of fun actually and I watch it every Christmas, you should too.




Battlestar Galactica Wall Calendar- Cause you never know when it's going to be 1979 again.




James Bond Secret Ear Phone Wrist Watch- Were I a rich man, this would be great Christmas present for a certain podcast partner.


A complete set of French Battle of the Planets figures- Sure, they're on open cards BUT THEY"RE ALL KINDS OF AWESOME and circumvent any collector OCD.


Mego Planet of the Apes Treehouse Gift Set- This very rare combination of playset and dolls pushes all of my collector buttons and I want it to come home with me...

Thanks for Reading, see you next week!

Safari Hunt


Remember kids, each Safari Hunt comes with a personalized angry letter from Dian Fossey!

Eh, Wake up Doc!


I'm sort of glad I didn't have these as a kid, I don't want to associate Bugs Bunny with my life long hatred of getting out of bed.

The Fonz AM Radio


This may be the spiffiest Fonzie toy ever made and if I'm not mistaken, it's in scale with the Mego doll!

Electric Company Electronics



I have no idea if this Electric Company merchandise by Vanity Fair ever got released but I loved this show as a kid and would have been all over that Fargo North radio and Jennifer of the Jungle items.

Not surprising, Vanity Fair also had the Spider-Man license so even he's involved.
