The Amazing Walking-Man

[RSS]

I couldn't afford to buy everything I saw at this past weekend's Mego Meet festivities but I could photograph them.


Above is a real beauty from Durham Industries, a company I need to talk about more. Even though a Spider-Man that gently strolls in a Barnaby Jones like manner is something no kid needs, who could resist that card art?

Looks like Spidey has been walking to the fridge too often!

I'm surprised Durham didn't proudly claim this toy like many others: "Durham's the Amazing Spider-Man Mini Winder".

FYI, the Spidey image comes from Amazing Spider-Man #186, one of the earliest Spidey comics I had bought for me as a young un.

Yep, by the looks of him a five minute shuffle to the corner store for twinkies would leave him wet and winded.
It reminds me of those ads in comics for hostess cakes and apple pies.
