    Cool Collections: Dion Thurman

    I've always wanted to do features on people's collections, so when Dion offered shots of his 70's toy collection, there was no better place to start. Above we've got three staples of the seventies, KISS, Jaws and the Six Million Dollar man, sweeeeeet!

    I spy and Aurora Creature kit and a Vincent Price Shrunken Head set



    Lunch Boxes everywhere for the eye to see! There's another hobby I've avoided but have been tempted at every turn. I can see David Carradine's face plain as day there.

    Thanks Dion! Do you have a 70's related collection you'd like me to showcase, send it on down! It doesn't have to be toys, just anything partial to the "Me" decade, the more eclectic, the better.
    Colouring Book Theatre will return next week.

    Wow, there is so much 70's goodness there, great stuff! I love all the KISS items. I just have the KISS Megos, but there are some other KISS items there that I really would like to get, like the toy guitar and trashcan.

          Looks fantastic!

          He needs another kind of window treatment though.
          Kinda looks like he's in prison and they let him bring his collection in.

                    Very inspiring. He needs to get a more retro looking computer station and he's all set.

                      Maybe one of those giant ones with tape reels that feed out punch cards. What's the University of Pennsylvania doing with ENIAC? Or maybe one of these-


                      An AWESOME collection. Simply overwhelming.
