    Plaid Stallions 1980 Funstuf Catalog




    Naming a toy company "Funstuf" is a pretty bold statement, luckily the company more than lived up to it's namesake during the 1970s and 80s. During the late 1970s, the company was best known for it's "Aniforms' line of figures which were a unique concept that involved a rubber figure and an air pump.








    Funstuff utilized the hot licenses of the day including the Marvel Superheroes, comic strip characters and the Universal Monsters. Seeing as they released figures of Dracula, Frankenstein and Monster Heroes Thing and Hulk, they were the prime company to kick off the monsterous month of October here.



    OK Popeye isn't a Monster but he's kind of homely.....

    That bathtub sub looked like fun! I would have liked that when I was younger (but I was 14 in 1980! )

    I don't think that Rage Cage Hulk with Rage Eyes was ever released. It was a prototype.

    I always wanted the Hulk Rage Cage. Not sure why I didn't get it at some point.

    I had a friend who still had his FunStuf Dracula well into the 80s. I had no idea what it was, since the coffin was long gone. All I knew was he creeped me out because he had it sitting on the shelf right above his bed's headboard. Every time I spent the night there I was somewhat freaked by it. I was such a weinie!
