Collecting pop culture toys, comics, and collectibles collections

March 14, 2013 By 6 Comments

I’m seeing red!

I originally planned on taking a photo of a bunch of Spider-Man toys for this post, but then I thought I should push it a little further and go with ONLY red…

Yeah, that thing will mess with your corneas. Go ahead and click it to see what’s in there. Taking photos of red objects on a red background is no easy task!

Oh and if you were waiting to see some Spider-Man, here you go…

    From one space toy enthusiast to another, what’s the story behind that red fellow next to the Nutty Mad?

      That guy is reminiscent of a Marx figure from the late 60’s but there are no markings and he has a removable helmet and backpack, so I suspect it’s a knockoff dime store toy–but I still love it!

        I was thinking Marx, but I’ve never seen a sculpt like that. Either way that’s a killer piece!
