Got a 1st release 1976 Mattel Shogun Warriors Dragun w/box. Complete with all accessories & original instructions. Star shooter and ax thrower fully functional.  A difficult find. Except for Daimos, which I am not that fond of, it completes all the US Shogun Warriors releases for me.



That's bad ass!

(Excuse the cross post, but I really thought this was worth calling attention to.  I've been away for a bit, so sorry if it's been mentioned already...)

So, Universal Studios Florida has recently opened up a Halloween Horror Nights / Monsters "Tribute Store" inside of the main park, between the Jimmy Fallon and Mummy rides.   The store is set up like a haunted house, lots of cool merch, some reissues of past HHNs, going back to 1991.

BUT - the absolute COOLEST JAW DROPPING PART - THIS LAST WEEKEND THEY INSTALLED A WORKING FRANKENSTEIN MOLD-A-RAMA MACHINE!!! ONLY $6 A POP!





They also have a whole line of retro merch in the other gift shops.  I bit hard.  ;D





Really wanted to get the news out there as they already started popping up for resale.

I recently got a Napcoware Loony Goon vampire. They were made in Japan in the 1960's. There are four in the set--a Vampire, a Werewolf, a Hunchback, and I think the fourth is a Witch...

I also have the Napcoware Loony Goon Werewolf--I've had him for years. Just two more to go.

I'd like to hear more about this. I don't see link for images either.

Picked this one up in an auction. Full kit w/instructions. Started out with ones (Monogram 1st releases) I had as a kid (Trex, Triceratops, & Styracosaurus) all complete w/instructions. Picked up the Allosaurus & now this guy too.
Wish I had 2 of each toy as a kid....1 to play with and 1 kept mint in the box!!

AndyFish

Found mint in box Ideal Haunted House complete with cardboard insert and hooty owl spinner.  What a great game! Pics tomorrow.

Hepcat

Wow, fabulous score! Where did you stumble across such a prize? How much did you have to pay?

???

Can't wait for the pics.

I found one for $20 but it was missing the jewel and the owl spinner. Great find.

Went to the local Goodwill outlet store earlier today,  pulled out of a bin an original Steiff Brontosaurus small size, missing tag and button, as well as both eyes, and torn on neck and mouth,  but for 33 cents, I didn't argue.

Picked this up for $40. It's in great condition.
