Portal of Mystery

Anybody around here have any of these with their original packaging? I think it was just a tag or maybe even a sticker, but I never saw one at retail.


It looks like my imbedding didn't work, so here's a link: http://www.flickr.com/photos/devlinthompson/3602928572/

I didn't know you could post video on Flickr.  That's interesting.

I've never heard of that toy.  It looks cool.  I want one!

I have never seen this either.  I want one too, and are there different ones?

I've got Frankenstein, a werewolf, and a skeleton. I believe that there's also a Dracula.

 Love that Frankenstein toy.  I want one as well, though I have never seen it anywhere.

I have a Frankenstein example of these (same as was in the video). Alas, it broke last year (worn out from my playing with it too much) and I don't know how one would fix these things. So it's packed away in a box.  I bought mine at the Mall of America in the 90s. I remember there were others but I only got a Frankenstein.

When did these come out?  The plastic design looks like early 1990s.  I don't recall ever seeing them anywhere.

We had all of those around here. Man, thats already 17 years ago.

I seem to remember that we got them in North Carolina when we were living there doing Matlock. I kind of remember it was a Walmart buy. They were on cards, I think.

Btw, I have such a memory of traveling that state and buying car loads of the large Monster Telcos and sending them back here to California for all of our buddies. We had no Walmart here at the time! Kelly thought I was nuts.
