Any new classic toy aquisitions?

That's a cool Joe! Unlike Megos, I really don't mind when GI Joes are beat-up. It give them character!

TOTALLY AGREED on the vintage Joe. I haven't collected Joes in years, I just have the dozen or so vintage ones now that I'm happy with.

But it's NEVER easy to pass up a well-worn vintage Joe. Ah, just think about all the stories they would share about backyard battles..

It's like their 'badge of honor'...

Very nice Chris, and although my toy collecting days seem to be reaching their end, the cyborg line is one of the ones that I feel I need to finish.
I think you might be thinking of visibleinnards.org :: Index
and if you have questions Guyx1 is very knowledgable, as is neutronx.

in related news (related only because I keep them inside the same cube in my Ikea Detolf), I picked up a boxed Pulsar and a boxed Hypnos in a semi hidden ebay auction for the price of $35 combined.

Actually, I've visited the visibleinnards site quite a bit and have learned a lot about the cyborgs there. I was talking about a info site that used to be hosted on geocities, but when I click the link, it's not there anymore.

Nice grab on the Pulsar and Hypnos! I still need those guys myself. I used to have a boxed Pulsar from when I was a kid, but I stupidly sold it several years ago. Now I wish I didn't.

Finally scored some lincoln monsters!





My poor phantom had his hands pulled out though. It's the smaller hands, like the hunchback's. They seem pretty close to a tomland, but not sure what I could use??
Still looking for a hunchback & dracula????

Wonderful scores, congrats! You have great taste.

A few different AJ Knockoffs use the Lincoln body, if I see any I'll let you know so you can get some hands, how else will he play the organ?

Scored me a fantastic 9.5 Mego Robin. Only had to add a repro emblem, Mego Robin belt, and repro gloves and he looks great! Very, very pleased. Thought I would share. BTW... Thanks Jason (aka gaga4toyz)!!!! Also have a great box on order from Anthony (Toyroom) to complete this piece. Will post pics as soon as that arrives.

Thank you, that would be great and thanks for the tip!

Yes, and even looks better in person. Also found out that the off white color and the wraping is probably original. Thanks

From the "I Had No Idea This Existed, But Had To Buy It When I Saw It" file:

Behold the scarce Rushton Freddie the Frog doll. It's based on the character from the 70's kid show "The New Zoo Revue". I stumbled across him last week on eBay and got him for $2.99! I had no idea that anyone had ever done any toys based on the characters from NZR. There's currently a Henrietta Hippo on eBay too:

She's in need of some repairs and the opening bid is kinda nuts, so I'll pass on her for now. It's likely that Rushton also did a Charlie the Owl doll, so I'll be keeping my eyes peeled for him as well.

Picked this up recently...think I got a real good price ...I have only seen one previously on EBay that was still sealed and if I'm not mistaken, that one went for close to $200....I have always wanted one of these still sealed...now if I can find Superman and Batman unopened.

Never seen one of those?

I love Freddie The Frog! When I was little I used to want him for a brother. Nice find!

Nabbed this Japanese figure of Tiny from Battle of the Planets (where he's called Ryu) for $5 at last weekend's show. My wife loves this stuff but got bored when all the merchandise centered solely around it's star.

G-FORCE!!! Used to love that show. Pretty nifty little figure.
