    The World's Rarest Jiggler FOUND



    As any reader of this blog should know, I loves me some dime store rack toys and I also love drive-in cinema, that's why today's entry is so special to me.

    You see, for years there has been a legend of a Jiggler used to promote the Blood Island series of movies. Blood Island movies are a wonderful late 1960s series of lurid colour monster movies filmed in the Philippines that I absolutely adore (Oh and these movies just got released on Blu-Ray by our friends at Severin films, go and get them).




    Well, monster toy collector and fellow Blood Island fan Ray Castile has finally tracked one down and shared. You should check out Ray's amazing youtube videos about Topstone Monster Masks, they're really great.




    Just like the chlorophyll monsters of Dr. Lorca, I'm green with envy about this find but also filled with gratitude just to know it exists!


    Thanks to Ray for sharing this epic find, I'm seriously giddy.


    Also, it goes without saying, if you have one of there, I would like to buy it.

    A genuinely exciting find! Can't say I'll die feeling incomplete never having one to call my own - that's burden is reserved for the Sleestak - but I'm certainly that much happier to be alive right now knowing that that palm-sized bit of wiggly evil is actually out there.

          I placed my order with bullmoose.com for the box set. It's a blind buy for me, so I hope it's up my alley.

          I did read a rumor on Blu-ray.com forum that Severin only has about 250 left. That means the rest of the 3,500 are in the hands of other vendors and online stores. So they are selling. Not sure if you need to order by tomorrow if you want them, but it's likely they will sell out.

                This would make a great wave 5, or 6, or 7 Mego. Just sayin' Doc and Marty.

                  Neat, I didn't even know that existed.
                  You are a bold and courageous person, afraid of nothing. High on a hill top near your home, there stands a dilapidated old mansion. Some say the place is haunted, but you don't believe in such myths. One dark and stormy night, a light appears in the topmost window in the tower of the old house. You decide to investigate... and you never return...
