The 1979 AHI Catalog means more Rack Toys!

[RSS]

Another fabulous voyage into the world of Rack Toys with the 1979 Azrak Hamway International catalog. Gone are the cool Universal Monster and Planet of the Apes toys of a few years eariler but AHI has continued to expand on it's comic book offerings mostly inspired by the Incredible Hulk and Fantastic Four television series.
All the staples are there, bop bags, parachuting figures, batmobiles and more weird licensed water pistols than anyone will ever need.

Thanks for reading those bits Chris, I must admit I right them while dizzy from trying to build the entire gallery in under fifteen minutes....

Fantastic stuff! I would kill to have seen the Marx monster stuff(wolfman) come to life.
That could be one of the coolest figures I have ever seen.

[SlipperyLilSuckers]

Really interesting. I particularly enjoyed looking at the monster variations. That parachutist Captain America is very nice too.

[toys2cool]

man that's just amazing stuff

[Surfsup]

I loved the FF stuff, even though the Parachute figures are a crazy idea, especially for the Torch, they still look really cool. I'd love to find me some of them.

[ScottA]

Very cool. Seems I had quite a few AHI items growing up.

I'm always a little afraid to look at thiese because I know its just going to add to my "must have" list and further dent my wallet.

These almost rival Mego when it comes to nostalgia. I loved getting these as much, but rarely did they have the same staying power as Megos.
