I have been so perplexed my entire life as to how I became so deep into satanism and why my family stopped going to church when I was a kid! But now I have uncovered the TRUTH! I was possessed by satan through…..He-Man & The Masters of the Universe. Finally is has been exposed all those years of…

The Thundercats were probably one of the coolest cartoons of the 1980’s hands down! For one it had amazing animation (especially for being a regular after school cartoon) which seeemed to be a step above the rest. Secondly it also produced some pretty amazing action figures and a Marvel comic book too! The creators of the…

Holy crap was Fonzie the coolest dude ever or what!! Check out this amazing 1977 commercial for the Mego line Happy Days action figures for “Fonzie’s Garage”! I had no idea they made action figures for Happy Days it makes me wonder what else they did back then? Well anyway all I have to say about this is “Aaaayyyyyy!”

1984 was a good year cuz the Sectaurs RULED the toy scene! As a kid i just could not get enough of these guys. They were some of the coolest looking action figures around and had huge insects they rode around on. Plus they had a rad cartoon and Marvel even put out a nifty…

Hey what i wouldn’t give to have all these Megos! Check out out the little blurbs they say about each of them and how the Falcon is simply “that great black super hero”. It’s funny that “Tarzan of the Apes” is for some reason included here and that The Thing’s clothing (which isn’t even the…

I almost forgot about the totally rad Rambo action figure line and the cartoon from the 80’s! Check out this comercial for the Rambo toys. Rambo and ninjas? Sounds like a winning combination to me… I don’t care what anyone says either the last “Rambo” movie RULED!!
