has spent 48 hours on the Captain and its time to take it off and see the
developments. For the latest in this fast breaking story, take the

Marxtoys Announces
the Return of the Classic Vikings
29 Jul 01
Marxtoys
has taken out a full page ad in the latest issue of toyshop (dated August
10th) to announce the reissue of the "Vikings" action figures. The
12" articulated Vikings figures, originally manufactured in the late 1960's,
are similar to the "Best of the West" and "Nobel Knights" series.
Two figures are being reissued, "Brave Erik" the Viking Warrior and "Odin"
The Viking Chieftain. Each includes 5 pieces of apparel, 17 accessories,
a certificate and collectors booklet. Oddly enough, there is not
yet any mention of the Vikings on the Marxtoys website. For more
information on the vintage Marx Vikings, check out the Vintage
Toy Room. Marx Knights Figures are available at KBToys: Mark

Johnny Lightning:
Green Hornets Black Beauty
7 Jul 01
Here is one of those cool
cross over things that we are always on the lookout for. Playing
Mantis, the makers of Johnny Lightning, have released a 1:64 scale
Black Beauty for all you Green Hornet fans.
The car is a cool reproduction of the one used on the classic Green Hornet
TV series, plus it comes in very cool packaging. There is also a
chrome version that is a Target Exclusive. Another cool Johnny
Lightning item is the die cast model version of Speed Racer's Mach
5. It is a build it yourself 1:64 scale.
