Electric Company Electronics

[RSS]

I have no idea if this Electric Company merchandise by Vanity Fair ever got released but I loved this show as a kid and would have been all over that Fargo North radio and Jennifer of the Jungle items.

Not surprising, Vanity Fair also had the Spider-Man license so even he's involved.

This has several degrees of awesome built in. I definitely loved Electric Company but was never aware of any merchandise like this. Where's the Easy Reader Booklight? The calculator here sounds interesting--you have to give your answer to it? Definitely not the way it would work now.

Those Spider-Man walkie-talkies look VERY familiar. I think I may have had those.

Loved the Electric Company, so I'd been all over these as well. Heck, I had lots of Spidey Super Stories comics in my early days.

I think we have another Ricky Schroder sighting...

Yup, that's definitely good 'ole Ricky! I have to admit that I only watched "Silver Spoons" to see which arcade games I could catch a glimpse of, though. Oh yeah, and Erin Gray...

Count me in as another Electric Company superfan who would have been nuts for all this stuff too. The main EC merchandise that I remember were those early Intellivision "edutainment" games. Not very fun, but cool cover art...

Oh, yeah, I don't remember seeing any of this, but I certainly would have wanted the Jennifer of the Jungle bananas & the Fargo North pieces. Awesomeness!
Other than some Golden books stuff and Spidey Super Stories comics, was there ever a lot of EC merchandise? I never come across anything that I can think of.

Spiderman was featured on the Electric Company too!
Loved that show when I was a kid! I really liked the dancing monsters.
