    Actually...they are dolls! Or at least they were in 1973.

    This is something I promised Mr. Heiler many moons ago and finally scanned. Its a what's selling article out of a toy trade magazine from 1973. Note that they put it in the "Barbie" section...lol.





    Also, here is a vintage Wayne Foundation ad.....I think everyone has seen this one but I wasn't sure.





    Lastly, a Mego Ad near and dear to my heart because its an odd ball product.

        I love the typo in the ad.
        The Trek models were made my AMT, not AMP.

          Love that Wayne Foundation ad. Don't think I've ever seen so many villains in the Batcave. Batman really needs to work on security

                "Little boy dolls". Oh well, if that's what I collect, so be it.

                    Someone needs to tell The Joker and The Penguin it's the 70s in that ad. They won't be able to get porn on that computer.
