~So- last week at The Dirt-Mall I got some fuckin' COOOMMMICSSS!!!:



Word.


Also; I got this sweet little Arco/Seven Towns "Caged" Boglin, minus the little plastic cage and shackles it was originally sold with, for a buck. I used to have one of these- back in the day... 1987 to be exact.  But I don't think it was this one... Pretty sure this is Klang.  Not a lot of information about this particular series, or what they were actually called, online either... All the other types of Boglins toys; yeah. Not these, though.
Also- this happened recently:



The other new figure... well...
He-Man and The Masters Of The Universe had a lot of knock-offs made from it... Like; A LOT! 
One of the knockoffs was called Galaxy Warriors. -In that line was a snake-man named Sahak. Galaxy Warriors is one of the more popular ripoff versions of the MoTU line... so EVEN THEY had knock-offs made from them, like; Freedom Fighters, Galaxy Heroes, and Muscle Warriors.
That there, in the picture above- is the latter: An unbendable, rubbery "Muscle Warrior" named Green Fang. 


A fucking knock-off OF a knockoff... AND one of the first toys I ever remember buying from The Flea-Market as a child (him and the two Imperial Beasts I've talked about before...) Well, okay- back then it was my parents who bought it for me, but still.
I had him- and could not believe it when I saw him there again all these years later! -For a fucking dollar!!! And now, thanks to The Internet: I finally know what he even ever was to begin with!
You don't understand- I LOVED this figure! I don't know what ever happened to him- but I played with it all the time. I was SOOOO happy to find this there. It makes my inner-child jump for joy...


Finally- that little ERTL Die Cast Metal DC Comics Super Heroes Penguin, from 1990, there- was from The Dirt Mall, but not this trip...
I got him (and the GL one) years ago.

Penguin must have got misplaced- because my Mom found him out in some random box, in the barn, at their place... And I never even missed him!

Poor Cobblepot...

  1. Who doesn't like Penguin. That old coloured umbrella always reminds me of Garcia's art - he definitely drew the guy best back then. We have a chain of shops here called 2+5. If you wanted knock offs of famous toys, you'd go in but never leave mate.

    1. Yeah, totally! That's my favorite design on The Penguin. I wish he always looked like that.

      2+5, ehhh? So it's like a roach-motel for nerds?

  2. "Muscle Warriors" huh? I guess they had to go with that since, He-Man was already taken.
    Nice finds though man. Glad to see a new post by you. Been too long brah;)
