A vintage Topper Toys Johnny Seven One Man Army produced in 1964. The top selling toy of 1964! It was called the One Man Army because the gun has 7 functions. A complete one in the box commands top dollar! The gun was released during the Vietnam War and I guess they were getting Johnny ready for WAR. During this era, many televisions shows had a war theme, such as Combat and others. Topper Toys was a divsion of Deluxe Reading Corporation who only sold toys on the top shelves of grocery stores and drug stores (out of the reach of our grubby little hands) while Topper Toys sold there line in toy stores. I remember bugging the heck out of my parents to get me those toys and most cost a weeks salary. They don't make em like this any more!!!! It would be a Politically Incorrect! Where's OSAMA???

A cool battery operated from the 60's from Ideal Toy Corporation. King Zor came with a dart gun (not shown)and 5 or 6 darts. You were supposed to shoot King Zor's tail and if you hit it, he'd turn, and fire yellow balls at you. I wouldn't dare shoot his tail now for fear of breaking the it! You can nudge the tail to get the same effect. Oh man, please forgive the filming. This when I started doing toy vids and the TV was on in the background and I was looking through a view finder and trying to make sure Zor didn't fall off of the table, all at the same time. I now use a tri-pod. I will do another in the near future. If any one has this or parts, I need some, especially the box and some darts. Co

A cool plastic model of Wonder Woman made by Aurora in 1966. Sales of this kit were dismal and it appears that young boys just weren't interested in woman superheros. Wonder Woman is controling the menancing octopus with her magic lasso. A truly cool 60s kit!

An Ideal Classic that was so popular that Ideal adopted Mr. Machine as their official logo! This toy was designed by Marvin Glass a freelance toy designer and he fashioned Mr. Machine after a henpecked husband. He squawks as he walks. You could take Mr. Machine apart and even though they say it was desinged for a 5 year to do, many a Mr. Machine laid in pieces only to be tossed out by parents who couldn't figure out how to put him back together either. I repair and take apart old toys to clean them and I had one heck of a some fun putting him back together-NOT! LOL. There were two variations of Mr. Machine that came out in the 70s and one in the 80s, but nothing compares to the original Mr. Machine!!!! His orginal box is shown too!

Aurora Plastics Corporation put out a line of model kits base on D.C. and Marvel Superhero Comic Book Characters. This is the original version kit. Aurora was the leader in producing all plastic figure assembly kits. I stripped off all of the old gloss paint (remember Testor's glossy enamel paint?) and put putty into the seams that I was able to do without losing detail and repainted the kit using acrylic paints. Acrylic paints make the kits look more realistic. This kit shows Superboy and Krypto encasing a dragon into a rock! I had a golden retriever (may she rest in peace) and I named her Krypto.

Superman, "The Man of Steel" busting through a brick wall. Another in a line of Superhero model kits put out by Aurora Plastics Corp. The popularity of figure model kits fizzled with the introduction of G.I. Joe. Now kids could have a figure that moved instead of a motionless model kit. Aurora held its own and still produced kits. I stripped off the old glossy paint and used acrylic paints to make it more lifelike.

Another of Aurora Plastics Corporations line of popular TV and Movie characters. I found this Zorro at a yard sale and didn't repaint him because it already had a fairly decent paint job on it and I was afraid that I may break some of the little pieces when I attempt to dis-assemble.
