MOD MONSTER: MEDALLION MAN!

I've talked about my Mod Monster many times.

Here's a mint one I saw online with a part I don't have on mine, the magic neck medallion. Have you got one on yours?


I was amazed to find that Toy Tent offer a replacement for this tricky part to retain, the medallion I mean

Different shaped medallions often appeared with the original real life Nehru coats in the catalogues back in the Sixties.


They do look rather snazzy those pendants and have a sort of new-age look to them.

Oddly enough I noticed that even Scooby Doo wears a sort of magic Nehru madallion too!


Does anyone know the history of the medallion?

  1. I don't remember the Mod Monster but those Nehru's bring back memories! BTW, even though they were all over the place - like bell bottoms and paisley shirts - I never owned one.

  2. My favourite medallion of all time has to be the Kung Fu Dragon which I think came with Look-In magazine in the '70s. Kinda a sacrid symbol of childhood, Woodsy.
