Just wanted to mention that issue 3 will have a section on the Lincoln International Monsters and Issue 4 is slated to have some never before seen Munsters items. I'm a monster kid at heart so there will be green skin in every issue somewhere.

Great to hear. Issue one is awesome.

Thank you all so much for the kindness and support. Sorry I haven't popped in lately but I've been crafting issue 4 and I think this group of all places will love what is between the pages.





Contents include:

 

The Munster Mash– We’re visiting 1313 Mocking Bird Lane when Corey LeChat gives us a tour of one of the greatest collections of Munster merchandise ever assembled. Many of these items have never been featured in print before and this issue is a tribute to the late Tony Greco, a legend amongst Munster collectors.

Apemen down under– William Wilson has written a wonderful piece about this Australian line of Planet of the Apes knock off figures called “The Action Apemen”

The Expandable ones- David Lockwood explores the stretchable superheroes and villains made by Funstuff in the early 1980s.

He's Glump! He's Glump!- We talk about the weird world of dime-store action heroes created by Durham from Yung Kung Fu to Glump the Caveman, it’s a comprehensive guide.

Super Amicis– A fun pictorial guide to this cheeky line of figures based on the Mego World’s Greatest Superheroes.

The Toy-Ventures Guide to the Mego Mad Monsters– This issue we take an exhaustive look at this wonderful glow-in-the-dark figure line by Mego with input and anecdotes by Mego’s own Marty Abrams.

We're giving away a free Mego Mad Monsters Mini Pennant with this one but supplies are super limited.

Thank you everyone for the fantastic growing support of Toy-Ventures, we really appreciate it when you spread the word as a small start-up, our best friend is word of mouth.

MM Store: http://www.megomuseum.com/odeon/store/products/
Amazon: This week

I would really like to know your feedback on this issue, I'll be popping in more than usual in the coming days. Cheers- Brian

Thanks so much for the kindness. Issue 5 is out and has two wonderful articles that Monster kids will love. One is all about the Thriller Graveyard Gang figures and the other is a tribute to Baby Frankenstein. It's absolutely awesome, I can say that because I didn't write it or lay it out.

Cool.

Corey LeChat has promised to send me a copy of the Baby Frankenstein issue, #5, when it comes out.  He had contacted me for permission to use some of my pictures.

I can't wait 'til I get my hands on one.

Hey fellas.

Issue 8 is coming this October and I'm excited to announce that issue 8 will launch soon.




It's October, and Toy-Ventures magazine is always a friend of horror-related toys; nothing is more fitting than this beautiful article. 

Issue 8 will see a newcomer to the magazine in the form of  Heath Smith who brings us into the world of the Telco Halloween Motionette. These wonderful horror-themed animatronics were something I was largely unaware of. Still, after working on this article, it's easy to see their appeal and why they are so highly coveted. Toy-Ventures is not responsible for any eBay purchases made after reading this article.

Are you also the curator of the Mego Museum or is that some other like minded spirit?
