A little treasure found in a pawn shop in the Schuylkill Mall in Frackville PA.. Feels like the 80s again when I see these for sale. Of course minus the boxes and comic inserts..

Oh, and stores and shoppers.

Oh no! Ayden just beheaded Mekaneck… Another casualty in the old toy box..

My son and I were playing my my old He-Man action figures tonight, I think it’s the first time in my 33 years of life I actually took a close look at Moss Man’s face.. What an ugly mug.

Funny enough, Moss still has a slight hint of the fresh 1980s added on odor that Mattel have him.. Amazing.

I really can't believe I never knew about this

I met up with a friend who informed me that she went to a place called RetroCon. It’s filled with toys and nostalgia from my childhood.. and it’s only about 90 minutes away in Oaks, PA.. 

I really can’t believe I’ve heard about this now only for the first time. I do intend on making 2014 the year we get there..

Seriously.. how can you beat this.

HE-MAN all these years later..

You may have seen this article before, or the concept of it: Toys that are made so much more valuable after many years because they were never opened from their original packages.

In this case, 18 MASTERS OF THE UNIVERSE toys worth hundreds of dollars each if they maintain themselves in their cardboard casings from the 1980s.

But I think back.. there’d certainly be no way as a child I would have chosen to NOT open these toys.. and even more, what’st he point? Sure, there’s monetary value now on them, but.. the endless hours and rivalries on my bedroom floor that I imagined would have been nonexistent.

And that’s completely worthless…

So raise a glass and toast the kids who open their toys, lose the pieces, and break off the heads!

At least they had some fun and realized the true purpose in life.. and as for the others? Well.. I guess they’re a little wealthier than the ones who have toys without heads..

NETFLIX is on the move. But I am going to issue them a stern warning now

Interesting article from the NEW REPUBLIC: NETFLIX has a plan to rewire our entire culture. 

That’s fine, NETFLIX.

I pay for you.

But please stop taking off movies that I grow to enjoy being on there.. and stop taking away all the 1980s HE-MAN seasons just when I get my three year old to accept them and their 1980s-style greatness!

At least they left me with this:

Moss reanimates 400 years after deep freeze..

.. but would Moss Man reanimate after 20 years?
