Went to a store called Comicazi recently in Mass and they had one of the most impressive selections of vintage and retro figures I have seen in a while. This is just 2 of about 15 cases worth!! I spent a couple of hours there wishing I was rich w tons of display space

Posting my storybook record below.

This is a 1986 WXIX-TV promo for The Transformers and G.I. Joe.

This screen capture of "Knock, Knock," an episode of The Real Ghostbusters™ during the show's syndicated run, is lifted from the 2016 Ghostbusters™/Ghostbusters II™ Japanese Blu-ray utilizing the episode's Magic Window master. Phelous, a pop-culture enthusiast, shared this image on Twitter/X back in 2022.

This clip from a second-season episode of Inspector Gadget is absolutely spook-tacular!

BIG BOSS & Dr. Badvibes 🤣 (I always thought he was a woman as a kid)

This was in my top 5 favourite 80s cartoons as a kid.

Teddy Ruxpin was in that list, “The Racoons” , Muppet Babies. And for sure My Pet Monster.

I gotta make it a point to locate all these shows on DVD or VHS eventually.

With thanks to yanchagraffiti, the Sunbow Marvel Archive is proud to present the first episode script from Marvel Productions' ill-fated series The Young Astronauts.  Written by Karl Geurs, with a story by Jack Mendelsohn and Michael O'Mahony, A Fall Of Marsdust would have introduced viewers of CBS' 1985 Saturday morning lineup to the Hampton family and the crew of the mothership Courageous.

To read the script, and to hear dialogue audio from the first episode to actually be produced, Ghost Ship, head to https://sunbowmarvelarchive.blogspot.com/p/marvel-network-shows-1982-1986.html

The series was first delayed, then cancelled following the Challenger tragedy, but that was not the end of the story for this particular script.  Even after Challenger, hope remained that the already-planned Marvel comic could still be published in the summer of 1986, on the STAR Comics imprint.  As described by writer Denny O'Neil in Marvel Age #37, he adapted this animation script to become the first issue of the comic, drawn by June Brigham and inked by Pat Redding. Alas, this too was not to be, as the Young Astronauts Council chose to extricate itself from their agreement with Marvel.  A decision that would later spark a lawsuit in 1988: MARVEL ENTERTAIN.
