Mantooth: The Commercial

[RSS]

Recently discovered in the basement of Odeon Toys Founder Vic Machismo's house, this commercial for the Brick Mantooth doll hasn't seen air since the fall of 1976, when it aired on Buffalo 29 at 3:30 am in between a rerun of "Room 222" and another rerun of "Room 222". We are happy to unveil this unique piece of toy history.



Many props to my pal Rob Chatlin who lovingly restored the film to it's former glory, without his help, this wouldn't be. Hopefully we unveil more Odeon Commericals in the coming months. More updates on Mantooth very soon. Stay tuned, well the internet doesn't have dials but you get the idea...For more Fashion Mockery and 70's toy love visit us at Plaid Stallions.com

VERY 1970's Mego.

That is likely the coolest and funniest thing I've seen on the Museum.

Awesome. Your kids are natural 70s commercial actors. I think you should have used your "Its the mego museum podcast" voice instead though.

I've had the opportunity to see a complete production pair of figures in person (minus emblem and museum) and I think people are gonna dig it.

Bump for justice.

You can't deny he gets the chicks. You just cant. You may question him on his belt length, but in the end.....he gets the chicks. 'Nuff said.
