BANK STREET SELECTION. (L & M )

Bank Street published a brief series of pocket sized comics, these were compiled volumes as paperbacks.

The UK equivalent would be the War Picture Library etc.

Rubber Soul

Blimey, I so recall this rubber frog idling online. I had so many rubber animals and insects as a kid. Frogs, snakes, tons of snakes, crabs, ants, flies, centipedes and even a severed hand! 

I can still feel the waxy surface of them and deep oily smell.

Happy rubbery days!

Did you have any?

They did it Sky Way!

I've never seen this Cap Toys set before. A huge boxed toy by the looks of it, containing track and radio controlled sky ships, which I really like. 

The sky ship has a neat bulbous design.

It's got vibes of Flight Deck, Major Matt Mason's Reconojet and the old Mighty Mike Skyway! Yes! 

Here's the exciting TV ad from 1996. Wow!

Waddaya reckon readers? You hittin' the Skyway?

Ringing in the Changes

 Radio, TV and Comics Character rings have always fascinated me. They just look so good and common ones can be found relatively cheaply. The hobby also includes some of the most valuable comic character collectables in the world. Needless, to say, I don't have any of those!

Awhile back I blogged a collection box I saw on Worthpoint and today I had a crack at replicating - sort of - the box with one of my own ensembles. A bit of ring fun, mine includes home-made stuff and family heirlooms  (none valuable) to make up the general look. See what you think.

My attempt at a similar look

Here's another shot of all my toy rings minus the heirlooms. My favourite is the green Superman Kryptonite ring - second column left, bottom one - which Santa delivered last Christmas.

Have you any rings?

Hot Shelf

 Well I made some more room in my cabinet and got my Hot Wheels out and onto their own shelf (my handful of Redlines are on the shelf above).

It's not all of them but I'm pleased with how they look. Are you?

Have you got any Hot Wheels?
