Dr Evil Gift Set Addendum  16 Apr 01
I neglected to mention that the Lab Set that we introduced yesterday is available for sale.  Contact Bob of CR Toys, you can email him at CArmst5279@aol.com.  I have also found a few more interesting differences between this set and the window boxed one (such as the missing sandals) and have updated the page to reflect them.

The Ultra Rare Dr Evil Gift Set Resurfaces  15 Apr 01
I made my semi annual trek to the Atlantic City Antique show, which like most shows since the advent of internet trading is not quite what it was.  However, this year I came across C R Toys who had a mail order boxed Dr Evil gift set, which I had never seen first hand.  Bob was nice enough to take it out of the display case and allow me to take a few pictures of it for the site.  A really interesting item that deserves its own webpage, and here it is: Dr Evil Gift Set

DC Superhero Action Figures  25 Mar 01
While this is not exactly the kinda thing that we usually go for, they were brought to our attention and they look pretty cool.  Hasbo makes these 11" action figures for The New Batman Adventures, and it looks like  KB has got them on sale.  Worth checking out at this link:  New Batman Adventures Action Figures

This is it!  The CAPTAIN ACTION Uniform Set that never was...  1 Mar 01
Here is an extraordinary find.  While on an expedition to the uncharted regions of Ebay, Joe from 2GFX has unearthed definitive proof of the existence of a fourteenth unproduced Captain Action set!  I know what you are thinking, you've heard this kind of stuff before and you are skeptical.  Well, so were we, but the finest minds we could dig up have gone over this again and again and they are both in agreement, this is the real deal!  There is even first hand correspondence with John O Shaunassey, whom if you don't know, designed toys for Ideal in the mid 1960's.  I hope that we have piqued your curiosity and built up a reasonable level of suspense, because you are not going to find out who it is until you click on the link below.  Before you do, try and guess who the 14th Captain Action uniform would have been.  Here's a hint, it wouldn't have been released last...
