1976 Corgi Batmobile

Image
As some of you may already know from reading past posts about my childhood,I was never a big fan of  little toy cars.Hot Wheels,Matchbox,Maisto ,It didn't matter what the brand, I just never dug em'.There was something fake about driving a little car around that didn't have a driver In It.The only car I ever took a liking to as a kid was the Corgi Batmobile. Why?Because It had a driver!A teenie ,tiny batman sculpt that sat In the drivers seat and that,to me,was uber awesome!I played with that thing alot!I made little dirt  roads for It,ramps and took It with me everywhere I went.How couldn't you?It was pocket sized Batman goodness to go!This might not be the coolest item In my collection,but It definitely means alot to me.It was one of the first toys I can remember owning and the nostalgic vibes It gives off  makes It a very important piece In my collection.

An Iron Man with removable armor!!!!!GTFO!Of course,back then It was easy to overlook the fact that Iron Man's helmet was wayyy too big for his body and that this figure could have easily passed for a bobblehead,but we were so jaded.  Little ads and promotions like this were commonplace back then.Toy companies made cra

G.I. Joe Rise of Cobra - Shredder?

Looking over my toy shelf down In the basement ,I realized that my Nick Shredder figure was missing his mask.And then I realized that my OOTS foot soldier had a mask.And then...                                                                                       Voila ! I think It looks pretty dope! Cobra Commander thinks otherwise.
