Hey guys. I just wanted to show you something kind of cool I’ve been working on recently. As some of you may know, Philip J. Reed of BattleGrip.com has successfully received funding for a cool Kickstarter project. It’s a book called “Transforming Collections,” and it documents the world of third-party TransFormers toys. I readily […]
Remember the New Adventures of He-Man? I discussed it briefly a couple years ago. You see, I never really knew about the New Adventures of He-Man cartoon as a kid. I never watched the show or knew the characters or anything like that. I was already out of my Masters of the Universe toy phase, […]
You see these generic-looking super heroes? (The ones that look a lot like Playmobil?) They may look like true knock-offs or bootlegs of your favorite comic characters, but they are in fact a legit toyline from a legit Spanish toy company, Airgam. “What the hell is Airgam” you may be asking? well, Airgam is a […]

Ever find yourself buying a toy simply for the horrendous (or hilarious) packaging? It’s rare that I do that, but in this case, that’s just what happened. That’s where this story begins. (Click to enlarge) I discovered this MONSTER toyline last year, and not only did I love its generic, non-committed name, but I immediately […]
So, I’ve finally gotten around to the blog again. Sorry about the delay. I know a lot of you have been eager to see what I picked up at the York Toy Show. Well, here’s part 1 of my toy haul. (Click to enlarge) I was just strolling the aisles when these horrible, barbie-doll-sized bootleg […]
Great news!! (for me anyway) I’ve managed to get my hands on some carded Gross Out Gang (GOG) figures! (Click to enlarge) (Click to enlarge) You remember the GOG don’t you? (I’ve only written about them a hundred times.) I wrote about them when I discovered their toyline, their vintage toy ad and when I […]
