Well, well, well. If it isn’t another Weird Ball figure by Mel Appel and Crayart. If you don’t remember Weird Ball cards or figures, don’t fret. I had no idea what they were either, until I managed to shed some light on the subject in my previous entry about “None Chuck.” And just like our […]
Gross Out Gang (Click to enlarge) Warning: This next little bit is just my jabbering on about the blog and my discovery of the Gross Out Gang. This entry is particularly special to me, because a couple of months ago, when I started this site, I had a simple vision of sharing some weird toys […]
So all those who lost the Madballs they had as kids (and even those who kept their Madballs just to realize they’d disintegrate over time), fret no further. They’re back! You remember Madballs.

Here’s a look at some more toys I picked up at the Allentown Antique Toy Show last weekend. These weird, little, bendy aliens are the Outer Terrestrial Creatures by Marty Toy ©1983. This is one of 5 affordable things at the show (I’m joking… but barely)… (Click to enlarge) … and whadaya know! They’re still […]
“Holy diaper rash, Batman!” It’s Batman and Robin as you’ve never seen them before. They’re 7″ vinyl squeeze toys… and they’re babies. These lil’ fellas were my first find at the Allentown Antique Toy Show. (Click to enlarge) From what I can gather from the legal info on their feet, these toys are called Super […]
