They look great Pete

I am pretty sure I remember them - the pictures were a little risqué in terms of taste back then I think

Yeah just a bit. They were banned from most schools by the 2nd or 3rd series. L absolutely loved them back then and still do... They're very addictive.

Thaks Frank. Yeah i do. Had a few of them too back in the day. Josh has a huge Madball collection i believe...
 
No I just pulled it from google images Josh so your all good m8, I remember warking on a toy department putting the dam ugly things on hangers, always thinking that they would give kids nightmares :lol:

I will LYK if I come across any k ;)
 
It's no wonder we all turned out the way we did with things like Garbage Pail Kids and Madballs as toys when we were kids. And who remembers Boglins?... i think that's what they were called... :?

I got one of them. They are actually quite fooking creepy if you ask me :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

Cool the eyes can be moved on it.

I remember. I had 2 of them when i was a kid. I believe they had largeb sized ones and smaller ones cos i had one of each. The boxes looked lik cages i seem to recall.
 
Lovin those Garbage pail kids Pete, we certainly had some ****** up toys to play with as kids.

Anyone remember these:





Picked up a bunch off a mate who no longer wanted them. They're called Wacky Plaks done by the freakin god of Mad magazine fame Jack Davis. Used to collect these as a kid from the local Milk Bar, came with a stick of gum. Not on the same level of grossness as the GPK cards but fairly politically incorrect for their day. I believe they were originally released in the 60's and made a come back in the 80's. These were one of my main inspirations to becoming a cartoonist. Love em!
 
Mate I'd be pissed if I lost that, Mad magazine was great fun as a kid but having it signed by those blokes would have been a treat.

How many beers did Boonie consume on the flight? That would've been at least a slab long journey for him. Classic.

I have this hardback book somewhere at home, you'd love it

Cool. Reminds me of the artwork on the cover of the Animal House movie. Do you know if the same guy did that?

Yeah I'd love to get a copy of that book, Jack Davis is a true legend and such an amazing artist in his own right, check this one out for example, Inked drawing can you believe this was actually rejected for print! It was either Jack himself not being happy with it of the editor rejecting it either way shows the man's talent.

 
Finally completed my carded series one Action Force collection. I've never seen a carded Australian Jungle fighter for sale before so I'm chuffed to finally have one. Thanks to the Action Force expert who helped put this collection together.
 
Ha ha love it, of course Aussies only fight in jungles (of which we have none).

I wonder if they had an Australian Convict version? It could come with such accessories as leg Irons, an uncanny ability to beat everyone in sport, the loaf of bread he stole to become a convict and a huge chip on his shoulder. :lol: :lol: :lol:
 
Another pretty cool figure I picked up in the last few months. I love the vintage Transformers. I may focus on them in the future but there is so much repro rubbish out there. :(
 
Awesome Transformers figure. They were my favourite toy line as a kid. Way too expensive to collect tho. I don't think a hundred quid buys you a sealed example of anything pre-90s Transformers!
