| 4494 | Article | NLogan | I must admit I was in the Jurassic Park theater seats multiple times in 1993. I did see Last Action Hero but as much as a Arnold Schwarzenegger fan that I am, I can barely remember it. I don't remember seeing any merchandise at all. The trading card game is lost to the flop of the film in the box office. A trademark was filed on Dec 14 1992 and abandoned and dead by Feb 25 1994. There was also a filing for toys Apr 19 1993"toys; namely, action figures, polyvinylchloride ("PVC") figures, toy vehicles including remote and radio controlled vehicles, playsets scaled to action figure size, dolls, including talking and fashion dolls, plush toys, board and card games, non-board games, inflatables, ride-ons, excluding bicycles, video game machines and hand-held electronic games, toy weapons, dress-up play items and play sets, activity toys and bath toys, excluding bath products, coin-operated game machines and video game software for computer game-playing cartridge systems, CD-ROM platforms and PC platforms, including floppy and CD-ROM formats and hand-held electronic games" while some of that happened the majority never materialized. The unpublished comic book covers are available online by Jerome K. Moore. I am interested to see what you found out and am anticipating the sequel article follow up. <img src="/images/postImages/1532286031last_action_hero_by_jerome_k_moore.jpg" width="375" height="565"> <img src="/images/postImages/1532286116magic_ticket_by_jerome_k_moore.jpg" width="417" height="601"> | Jul 22, 2018 |  | |
| 4493 | Article | Vaporman87 | Whoa! Very cool. Can't wait to read the story behind that. | Last Action Hero Movie Merchandise | Jul 22, 2018 | |
| 4492 | Article | Hoju Koolander | UPDATE: After submitting this article I miraculously solved the mystery of the Last Action Hero comic book and special trading cards. The story is a doozy and my next article will be a behind the scenes interview with the man who worked for Topps on the project. So excited to share it with you! | Last Action Hero Movie Merchandise | Jul 21, 2018 | |
| 4491 | Article | OldSchool80s | Nice work as usual. Love the reminders of the original GLOW stuff. Watched it regularly back in the day. Season 2 of the Netflix series was pretty outstanding. Hoping for a Season 3. | G.L.O.W. Two-Timers | Jul 09, 2018 | |
| 4490 | Article | Hoju Koolander | @Vaporman87 Wow, now that I think about it, I can totally see the Teddy Ruxpin resemblance, especially the eyes on those costume. @jkatz At least a hardbound book that collects the artwork, because that stuff is beautiful. | Kids VHS Tapes of the 80s and 90s | Jul 03, 2018 | |
| 4489 | Article | Vaporman87 | A perfect segway into Season 2 of the Netflix show. I suppose if you can get away with either re-purposing or "cloning" characters and make the audience happy, then there is no reason to NOT do it. By now though, the whole "Mini" or "Little" fad, with smaller versions of a star, has kind of played itself out. | G.L.O.W. Two-Timers | Jun 30, 2018 | |
| 4488 | Article | Vaporman87 | @jkatz: Interesting tidbit concerning that version of Pooh (from the show Welcome To Pooh Corner) - the company that developed the animatronics for the suits that actors wore belonged to Ken Forsse, the creator of Teddy Ruxpin. His work paved the way for Disney to start using such animatronic features in the suits of some "cast members" playing Mickey, Minnie, and others. Man, some of these boxes are just amazing. I always loved the oddly sized/assembled VHS cases and boxes. They were incredible. | Kids VHS Tapes of the 80s and 90s | Jun 30, 2018 | |
| 4486 | Article | jkatz | That's awesome packaging for the GI Joe/Transformers tapes. Definitely would be cool if they re-released these somehow...maybe in a special commerative vhs edition, even. Live Action Winnie the Pooh looks creepy. Love the retro TV, too! | Kids VHS Tapes of the 80s and 90s | Jun 29, 2018 | |
| 4485 | Article | jkatz | I'm starting to think that the small local theme parks are better than the household name ones. Anybody can go with their family to Disney World, and hundreds of kids probably get lost there every day. But searching for your little brother at Lake Compounce? That makes for a much more interesting story, in my opinion. PS: You have a lovely family! And that hat makes you look like a PA on the new Star Wars movies. | Theme Parks: Adventures in New England | Jun 23, 2018 | |
| 4484 | Article | mickyarber | Love all these stories. Reminds me a lot of my childhood. | Theme Parks: Adventures in New England | Jun 20, 2018 | |
