Any new classic toy aquisitions?

Always love seeing an alien. Kudos on the pickup.

got a muscle body air adventurer in my mailbox today, in pieces as usual. I already rebuilt him and have him ready for action.

Awesome score GHVersion12!

Picked this up yesterday.

Wow Rick... Jealous. Been hammering the guy here in the Springs for his unboxed, but he's just not willing to sell it. Leave it to you to go snag one boxed... Did you find that locally?

[RickD]

Was able to find this beauty up in Loveland. working on getting another. Love the Kenner Alien!

[mvanis]

They are amazing for sure. My dad's got one boxed in his collection... Maybe ill convince him to let me smuggle it out here next time around!

[toys2cool]

Alien is awesome..One of the cool toys I've never owned

[B-Lister]

Awesome find. I can't help but feel that no matter how cool my finds it is inevitable that someone will post something cooler.

Not that it is a competition, but I dug up a pile of Golden Age superhero stuff and nary a mention....

But seriously, that Alien is a showpiece. Kind of makes me wish I had sprung on that Rom at the swapmeet last weekend.

Cool to see the Big Jim camper... Wish I still had mine... had years of fun with that!

Still have that Kermit hand puppet.

Great score on the Kenner Alien. That box is in better condition than mine... over the years it had been pressed flat and I had to reconstruct it. I lost the red inlay some time over the decades, though.

I know what this is- but there is 5 brownie points and 2 attaboys- or attagirls for who else knows who this guy is!!

I will post another pic when I get his clothes straightened out.

That's the Toy Island "Howler" from a 1990s talking monster series.
They also made a vampire and a zombie.

[palitoy]

Those are hard to find.

[Saroyan]

BOOM! Blown up with the first reply!

I stumbled on this guy by accident on Ebay- picked him up quite reasonable too! I just missed out (outbid) on the Vampire from the series. He arrived complete but his jacket looks like it suffered from a bad case of mange- I'm going to attempt a restoration.

He was also missing batteries which I replaced and he howls great.
