Hey M4S! i believe the Mighty Kong Big Mouth  was  from the early 1960's or it could be a tad earlier. you dont see them around too often. It came in two sections and i always had a junker with a rotted base but when i saw this one the very first thing this a/m at 6:30 i flipped. it was my first buy of the day and it was $5.00. AND it works.....!  Like the captain in the movie THE PERFECT STORM..."i always get the fish..."  Now if i can only find the gun and the ammo!

Get some foam rubber bananas (or foam rubber natives) to throw at him.

Thank you for the info brother! I just scored a Dracula off Ebay for $12 shipped. I'm stoked!

There are also a Frankenstein's Monster, a skeleton, and a ghost, as well as the aforemetioned characters.

Damn, that IS cool, Freddie! What a great display piece, too...Looks pretty big by the pic. Don't recall ever seeing it as a kid. Hope you find the gun soon! Was it originally sold in toy stores, or was it a mail order only offer?

On the "Big Mouth Kong", would they have had a special dart gun, or would they have used an off the shelf dartgun to pacckage it with?

[freddie poe]

I've never seen the compelete toy but i am sure Marx made their own dart guns...the best part is the Kong "roaring" that comes out via the battery box...more like a screaming chimp

[Frankenmarx]

Call me crazy, but I think hitting the 100 target in the mouth would be much easier than hitting the two 50 point targets that are located on the outer edges, leaving a much better chance of missing the board...and the mouth is bigger, too.  That will NEVER be used in official competition.  And yes, I was yelling when I typed NEVER.

I just picked this rad old candy bucket up from the bay. I think it's from the 70s. Anyone seen him before?

I also got this skull pendant. It's looks to be the same sculpt as the Wear A Weirdo pendant but its smaller. Also the Wear A Weirdos have a flat back & this guy has a rounded normal skull. I'm pretty stoked on him!

I scored these the other day. I don't have any info as to when they were made. But they are way cool & I had to have them.

Here is the Topstone version of those glasses.



I like this because it is the only example I have seen of Topstone using their Keith Ward mask characters (Male Vampire, Female Vampire) for non-mask products.

Is anything printed on the back of the card? Any info on the manufacturer/distributor?

Very cool! No wardrobe is complete without a skull pendant.

Ray those Krazy Specs are sick!! I def will be on the lookout for those guys now!!

And Hepcat no nothing is on the back of my card. It's just cardboard stock.

Here's a serious score I came up on today! All mint still on the card & shrink wrapped! I flipped when I saw this!!!

That's a nice score.  You don't see many of the big boards like that - and most of those are missing a few stickers.

Wow! Are any stickers still left on the board or have you already applied them all?
