    Woah... my friend had that, I think he paid 100 dollars for it back in the mid-eighties, which was like a fortune to us. Lots of fun stuff!

    Ghostlings from the Super Naturals toy line, 1980's. I only had one, the punk rock dude. The outer body had a sort of wizard/jawa claok attached. This one melted a little from 25 years attic storage.

    I've got that witch jiggler in a box of 80's Halloween decorations/skull toys I had from my punk days... the Vampire Nails...looks like the same company that made Glow Gloop , Scar Stuff and Vampire Blood in my youth. Fun graphics.

    I've been enjoying this book lately, thanks to the suggestion from Adam (thanks again for turning me on to it :) ). So much material inside (makes me wish I could blow up all the pics to really indulge in the fantastic art). I would definitely recommend it to Mazinger fans; it seems heavily weighted to that and KR. Adam's already done a great job catching its inner beauty: more pics available here thanks to his generous sharing.

    This was my weekend bargain find. A translated copy of Struwwelpeter. Ah, for a traumatized youth! For anyone that hasn't been exposed to them, German children's tales are not quite what you get here in the west. Let's just say that when you hear stories like these, your fear helps you to learn the lessons, not saccharine princesses and cutesy animals. [Those real Grimm tales are dark as F] Embiggen for more horror.

    Struwwelpeter
    _____________
    Die gar traurige Geschichte mit dem Feuerzeug_____Die Geschichte vom Suppen-Kaspar

    Die Geschichte vom Daumenlutscher_____________Die Geschichte von dem wilden Jäger

    Yes, those images are depicting the frightful scenes as they appear to be. These are just some examples of what happens to bad little boys and girls. :| I apologise in advance for the nightmares.
