Oh, to follow-up, I really love the stunt cycles/bikes. I didn't know so many of them existed. And, I have never seen the Shazam parachutist (loved those guys, by the way and an remember playing with them, often). Wow!
Love them catalogs. It's funny, but under the Space:1999 Parachutist description it says Spaceman and Captain Kirk - Sorry, AHI, but wrong low budget sci-fi show. Must find a Shazam Parachutist....

Good catch! In the same listing, the Shazam parachutist is called "Zhazam"!
It's hard to tell in the small pic, but on the Zoom Cars page, the drawing of Batman swinging on the Batcycle package looks to be the actual Mego version of that image used on all the early Batman packaging! AHI seemed to use the original source of this pose by Infantino on the Batplane packaging on the Friction Cars page, but that Batcycle package sure looks like the Mego artwork to me!
Great stuff. It's really shaping up to be quite comprehensive.
That's thanks to folks like you and Mike J. Mike sent me more AHI catalogs, so when I'm finally done adding them, it'll be a pretty massive rack toy archive. I just need to get some more packaged shots from people, it'll take time.
I too got excited at the possibility of a Parachutist Shazam.
Me too, if it did see release, it's probably pretty rare.

I had completely forgotten about that blue plastic version of the batmobile. That is one that I must have seen dozens of times in Kresge's and thought "It's blue. why?"
I did have the small ST phaser that shot the disks back then. I remember it looked like the same mold as the AMT model kit but a bit smaller in size.
