5125ArticleVaporman87<p>Great topic for an article. The first thing that comes to mind for me, is a very well done episode of He-Man and The MOTU called &quot;The Problem with Power&quot;. In it, He-Man is tricked into believing that he has accidentally killed somebody by Skeletor. It is the only time we see He-Man transform BACK into Prince Adam, and he decides to relinquish his powers because of his actions. The episode uses a fair amount of shadowing on the characters, which was not often used because of the time and budget limitations placed on Filmation for the cartoon.</p> <p><img alt="" height="268" src="http://www.retro-daze.org/upload/HeMan PWP.jpg" width="182" /></p>  Feb 20, 2020View
4505ArticleVaporman87Holy Cow! Can you imagine how much such a magazine would cost nowadays, with every item having to be illustrated and colored? Ridiculous! I wonder how often they had to make returns because the customer felt that the artistic rendering of the item constituted false advertising or poorly represented? Also, which film featured Darth Vader's brother, Darth Vadar?Super Hero Toy Catalog 1978Aug 06, 2018View
4510ArticlejkatzI've seen some of these ads and similar ones in vintage comic books, and I think the reason they went with illustrations was that photographs didn't come out good with the type of printing old comics used. That and it was probably cheaper/quicker to have a guy draw everything instead of meticulously photographing hundreds of items. I want that Darth Vadar shirt badly. Wouldn't mind some of those posters either... Super Hero Toy Catalog 1978Aug 08, 2018View
4552ArticleSupermanI think I saw some of that kryptonite for sale when I visited the Superman Celebration in Metropolis, IL several years ago. If not this specific version, it was definitely similar in that it was just some regular rocks painted green. I considered buying it for a souvenir but rethought it since they were, after all, just painted green rocks. The paint was even coming off already.Super Hero Toy Catalog 1978Sep 16, 2018View
4503ArticleVaporman87Can't... contain... jealousy... Rrraaahhhh!!! Ha! What an amazing trip. Really looking forward to your yard sale and thrift store adventures. They had to be epic. Very nice job capturing the fun of sleepovers and Saturday morning routines. You can see the gleam in the eyes of Hoju as he stands in awe of NLogan's man cave. Excellent job gentleman!

4508ArticleVaporman87@NLogan: I know. I felt the same about the past two RetroCons. LOL. If only we could just pause time and enjoy the fellowship until we are simply sick of each other. Rad Retro Weekend Part 1Aug 06, 2018View
4509ArticleHoju KoolanderYeah, we squeezed every drop of fun out of the very short time frame we had to hang out in, as you'll see in parts 2 and 3.Rad Retro Weekend Part 1Aug 07, 2018View
