Toys for Tots.




The days are closing in on that one special moment when most of us as kids couldnt refrain from staying up all night to see what OL St Nickwas goin to leave for us. although not much has changed with us, instead of action figures and games, were hoping for Carbon wheels ,chrono helmets and power meters under our's We thought it would be a good time to throw out a couple of toys as kids we here at Tms find very interesting from back in our day.
The first 2 images are of a toy made by the IDEAL toy company, The KLUNKS, America's Last Family? could it be because they shot and killed all the rest, take a close look at that Hillbilly packin heat and showin the Fat Cash stickin out of his pockets. In way just to taunt anyone lookin for trouble to be filled full of lead! WEIRD?
The 3rd image is one anyone who grew up in the 70's knows all too well, not mention the legend EK just moved on to greener pastures in the last month. This one is the Evil Knievel stunt show also made by IDEAL. pretty harmless right? but..look real close behind the chopper the MAN never rode, the main image on the vinyl case is that of a meat wagon, doors open just waiting to cart his busted up body away again. NICE message. In a day when we worry about our kids and all the the other crap they may be subjected to, Hell its been here all along.
Man we miss being a kid.
