Does anyone remember this Saturday Night Live sketch? I think it was Dan Akroyd introducing obviously dangerous toys and defending them while someone else pointed out what was wrong with them. One of them was Johnny Switchblade. I'm pretty sure they just used a Mego Fonzie, with something in his hands as knives. Does anyone know any other details, or have good pics?

Your right Del, it was Dan and Jane Curtain as the hapless host of Consumer Probe. There was a really good Halloween costume one, too. Johnny human Torch consisted of oily rags and a lighter.You must try to generate happiness within yourself. If you aren't happy in one place, chances are you won't be happy anyplace. -Ernie Banks -

T-Bolt, did you post a pic? I can't see anything but a Fortune City logo.
I'd like to make one of these, but just wanted to see if they changed Fonzie's clothing at all, and what else they might have used for knives, etc.Hey! Where's the waiter with the water for my daughter?

It was just a standard 'ol fonzie that popped up knives from his sleeves. I have the segment on DVD (been buying the SNL season sets).
I'd love to come up with a box for Johnny Switchblade someday from (I think it was called) Mainway toys.Comment
