    Retro Spins: Rocky IV



    Rocky
    1985

    Rocky IV was the first film in the series I ever saw, and truthfully was the only one in the 80's. It wouldn't be until the 1996 20th Anniversary VHS box set that I would get to see any of the other films. Keep in mind, at that point, there's were only five of them and no plans to continue the series.

    Sylvester Stallone, Talia Shire, Burt Young and Carl Weathers score a knockout success in the fourth "Rocky" blockbuster, written and directed by Stallone. With more than 75 fights behind him, these days Rocky Balboa is more interested in piling up points with his family than KOs in the ring. Then he meets Ivan Drago (Dolph Lundgren), the silent, simmering "Siberian Express." A savage Russian fighting machine trained and honed to physical perfection by Soviet technology, Drago is a towering juggernaut who proves his super-human strength and heartless brutality in a devastating, tragic match against Apollo Creed. And so Rocky faces his greatest challenge ever, as he climbs into the ring against Drago, each determined to destroy the other while the entire world watches and waits...Tense, touching, tough and right on target from beginning to end, Rocky IV is and odds-on winner! - Back cover of the original VHS

    The original cassette I had of this album got run through my stereo and Walkman repeatedly back in the day, and then again through my car stereo when I started driving. It was definitely one of the albums in my collection which needed a CD upgrade when I started my vast collection which I have today.

    Though it does have some duds in between the classics, there are six tracks out of the eleven which remain a staple for me in my iTunes and iPod rotation. Burning Heart, Hearts On Fire, Eye Of The Tiger, Living In America, No Easy Way Out and the instrumental Training Montage are timeless classics in my book. War / Fanfare From Rocky, another instrumental track, isn't terrible, but it's also not something I would actively listen to. The rest of the tracks are a hard pass.

    I do enjoy the fact that Eye Of The Tiger, which was essentially the theme song to Rocky III, makes an appearance on this album. Mainly, because it means I don't have to bother tracking down the Rocky III soundtrack, which consists of mostly instrument tracks by Bill Conti. Though maybe I should since I do enjoy some of his work, such as, The Karate Kid (I and II), Masters of the Universe, and...well, that's actually about it. He did also do all the other Rocky movies.

    Overall, this album is one where I love some of the songs (as mentioned above), but can't really stand the rest of them. Thank goodness I'm not bound to a cassette version anymore, having to fast forward and rewind to the ones I want to hear.

    Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Sewer Sports Balls (Playmates Toys)



    Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Sewer Sports Baslls
    Playmates Toys
    1991

    Need a cheap and easy product to pad your toy line? Plastic balls have you covered all day long!

    Playmates Toys was riding a big wave in the late 80's / early 90's with TMNT based product and they were willing to try anything to make as much money as possible. If one of the four Turtle's could be incorporated into it, they were open to the idea. Troll Dolls, Frisbee's, Plush and, as you've probably guess already, balls (just to name a few)!


    There's really not much to say here. They're balls. They're in the shape of one of the four Turtles, and you throw them, kick them, or in general, abuse them. What more do you need to know?


    One of each Turtle was produced, and each featured their own sculpts - Something which Playmates Toys was always most notable for. They rarely reused molds for anything during the entire run of original TMNT products.


    Each ball came carded individually in a bubble, and as you can see from the cardback, were hinted at being used in place of a baseball.


    Playmates also produced a much larger football style ball. However, these did not come carded, but rather wrapped in cellophane, and only Raphael was released. To date, this is the hardest out of all of them to find - sealed or otherwise.


    These aren't one of the most popular items Playmates Toys released. However, they are unique and a definite conversation piece among TMNT collectors. Their obscurity is what I think leads most fans to be so intrigued with them. They're pretty darn expensive too. I've seen single carded balls go for as much as $60.00. I've also never seen one of the footballs for sale on secondary markets.

    Office Toys Surprise!



    When I came into work this morning, I found a very dirty duffel bag sitting on one of the chairs in my office. As I looked at it, a co-worker said, "Look inside!"

    Curiously, I pulled open the flap and found several twelve inch Star Wars Collector's Edition figures from 1996+. Another co-worker and I dug through the bag, organizing characters and sorting through weapons. Last, we set most of them up on the bookshelf.


    There were more than this, but these were the ones which I really enjoyed. It was an awesome surprise and a fun way to start the day!

    Retro Spins: Purple Rain



    Is it a studio album? Is it a soundtrack? Is it both? I don't know, but it's shear perfection!

    Take a richly-human story of survival and triumph, a now soundtrack by some of the hottest bands around and the startling, brooding presence of 24-year old rock superstar Prince - the man who lived the music - and you've got Purple Rain, which according to Rolling Stone, "may be the smartest, most spiritually ambitions rock-'n'-roll movie ever made."

    This is the passionate behind-the-scenes stuff that rock-'n'-roll dreams are made of, a pulsating, slice-of-rock semi-autobiographical film starring Prince as "The Kid", a Minneapolis club musician known for his lightning guitar riffs and flash-fire vocals. As alienated as he is talented, The Kid struggles with both a tumultuous home-life and his own smoldering anger while taking refuge in his music and his steamy love for sultry Apollonia Kotero (lead singer of the camisole-chic Apollonia 6).

    The turbulent, gutsy film sizzles, seethes and rocks in a way few rock films ever have. Hot-blooded Prince and his band The Revolution give electrifying performances of songs like the exhilarating "Let's Go Crazy", "I Would Die 4 U', the plaintive classic "When Doves Cry" and, of course, "Purple Rain" and other hits from the best-selling Warner Bros. Records soundtrack album of the same name.

    Hailed by Newsweek as "the new Prince of Hollywood" PRINCE and PURPLE RAIN will reign over rockdom for some time to come. - Back cover of the original VHS

    Well, I guess, based on the above, it's a soundtrack.

    Long winded back covers of VHS tapes aside, I have to say, Purple Rain, the album, is spectacular. From start to finish, for me, there's not a bad song among the nine tracks. It's woven together as a true masterpiece of my lifetime, and stands out as one of the very few epics I've ever heard. It's the album that for many, myself included, turned attention towards Prince, serving as a segue into his music and massive discography to come throughout future decades.

    I'd list out all of my favorite tracks, but quite frankly I'd just be listing out all nine from the entire album.

    Star Trek Electronic Phaser Guns



    Star Trek Electronic Phaser Guns
    South Bend
    1979

    It's the first toy to utilize infrared technology, and it just so happens to also be a Star Trek product. Before there was the Nintendo Zapper, Lazer Tag or Captain Power and the Soldiers of the Future, there was Star Trek Electronic Phaser Guns.

    Much like Lazer Tag, the object was to shoot at another live player. However, rather than aim for a target disc on their chest, you had to instead disable the other player's phaser with a well placed shot. This was thanks to each gun having a beam emitter and receiver, alleviating the need for any further devices. It also made the game a bit more challenging. 

    The set was produced in 1979 by South Bend, a company which actually got its start by producing croquet mallets and balls back in 1874. It continued to thrive in the doll accessory business with items such as carriages, wagons, rocking horses and other wood based toys throughout the latter 1800's, becoming most noted for its "Willow" brand. In 1960 the company became a wholly owned subsidiary of Playskool, which was then obtained by Milton Bradley in 1968.

    South Bend was a family company which was the home of upwards of 400 employees, some of which were second and third generation workers.  Their story ends with a sad tale of what happens when you export everything overseas for manufacturing. By the 1980's, the company was suffering from the cheaper products which were being produced and shipped to the USA from abroad. South Bend prided itself on American made, quality toys, but business was business to Milton Bradley and dimes were dimes. They decided it was time to cease all production and close the doors in 1985.

      Review: Super Impulse World's Smallest G.I. Joe



      I talked about Super Impulse's World's Smallest G.I. Joe figures originally in my post from last week, and was able to finally track down a set of my own. Let me tell you, if the pictures were as exciting for you as they were for me, it was nothing compared to actually holding them in my hands.

      These tiny Joes are incredibly awesome! They burst with nostalgia and fun. The detail to attention which was given to these clearly displays a labor of love and respect of the original 1980's Hasbro line. It's amazing how much effort went into such little figures which stand no higher than 1 1/4 inch.

      For now, there are only three - Duke, Roadblock and Snake-Eyes, all based on their original V1 iterations. Of course, I'd be lying if I said my fingers weren't crossed tightly with the anticipation for more. I'd be ecstatic if Super Impulse released the entire line of 80's Joes in Smallest fashion. I'd love to display them all in front of their 3 3/4 counterpart in my toy room.


      Each figure comes sealed in a plastic bubble and features all of that great artwork you're familiar with from the vintage line at the bottom of the package.


      It's because of this that it was actually very difficult for me to open these. I was torn between my desire to keep the plastic packages intact for display and my fascination with the even smaller cardback inside.


      As you know, I'm a big fan of opening my toys, and because of this, that's exactly what I ended up doing - Almost immediately. The urge was just too great.


      Ever held three carded G.I. Joe figures in the palm of your hand? You can with these.


      As mentioned in my prior post about these, the cardbacks are actually plastic with acrylic bubbles. This not only makes them durable, but also gives them the ability to stand up straight on their own. Another convenient and well thought out inclusion is the clasped door on the back which give you access to the figures inside, as well as, their accessories. While I took a look, I didn't actually end up removing any of the contents from their packages. I didn't want to risk losing them.


      All of the figures come with a nice assortment of items, but I'd be lying if I said they were all accurate to the original releases. For the most part they are, but there are some differences. For example, Duke's backpack is actually Dusty's and he's missing his binoculars. However, said binoculars can be found packed in with Snake-Eyes. As for Roadblock, his gun tripod doesn't attach to his backpack like it does with the 3 3/4 version. These are minor flaws, and don't detract from the overall enjoyment of the figures.


      Another minor grumble is the artwork on the card for Duke. It's unfortunate that this is updated to that of the G.I. Joe Resolute line. It's also odd because Super Impulse clearly had access to the original artwork because they used it for the larger package. Fortunately, the other two match their original 80's cardbacks.


      Overall, I'm very pleased with these figures and excited of the prospect for more. I've only recently been introduced to the World's Smallest line of toys, but I can say with all certainly I'll be digging in to more. They have numerous properties which include The Transformers, My Little Pony, Barbie, Mighty Morphin Power Rangers, Hot Wheels, classic games and a slew of Fisher-Price's iconic toys for younger children - Just to name a few.


      I hope to review many more of these in the very near future.

      Retro Spins: Kidd Video - The TV Show Hits



      Kidd Video had a short lived life as a Saturday morning cartoon from 1984 to 1985. It followed a fictional band, fronted by Kidd Video, and their journey through The Flipside - a world run by the evil Master Blaster, who initially brought the group here to be musical slaves.

      What made the show stand out among the rest of its MTV era audience was the inclusion of pop / rock songs, as well as music videos and clips within and following each episode. Additionally, it featured original songs which were performed by the actors / band members, and full fledged music videos to accompany them. Best of all, these songs were actually great tunes. So great that in fact the fictional band took off in Israel, where a record (and other merchandise) was produced.

      This record to be exact!

      Featuring all eleven original tracks from the show, this is the ultimate companion to the series - A series, which to date, has never been officially released on DVD. Sad. Still, I suppose we have the record to enjoy...well, sort of.

      As mentioned above, this record was only released in Israel, which makes it a little difficult, and somewhat expensive, to get anywhere else. Copies show up on ebay here and there, but it's going to cost you around $75.00 to $100.00. It's also typically from the same sellers, who have no interest in negotiating the price. I recall when I was first looking for this album, the seller actually told me he had no interest in lowering his asking price, and would continue to relist it until it sold for the amount he wanted. It took me a couple years of coming back around to this record before finally finding it from someone a little more reasonable - Though it was still $60.00.

      Well worth it though.

      This is a great album. Speaking as someone who watched the TV show as a kid, I couldn't honestly tell you about any of the episodes. The only thing I actually remembered from the series was the music, and I loved it as a kid (kidd?). As an adult, I can appreciate the songs on their own, and find them, actually, quite enjoyable. On par with the music of the 80's, and easily able to stand on its own.

      Quality wise, it has its moments of "issues". Mind you, this is by no means a result of the record itself, which is actually pretty crisp, but rather the production of the tracks when they were originally recorded. This is most notable when  S's are sung on a couple tracks. The mic hisses back in protest a little. Detracting, but not a deal breaker, for me anyway.

      Personal favorites from the record are, Video to Radio (the opening theme to the show), A Little TLC, Come Back to Me, You Better Run, Turn Me Up and Easy Love. A couple tracks land on the "okay" meter, such as, It's Over When the Phone Stops Ringing and We Should Be Together. I could honestly pass on the rest though. Still, eight tracks out of eleven? That's not a bad ratio.

      If you're a fan of 80's music, and looking for something a little different, then this is definitely one to try out. Of course, if you're a fan of the cartoon series, then this is a must have.

      G.I. Joe Die-Cast Metal & And Micro Figures



      Today, I'm looking at a few G.I. Joe based lines from the 80's and "today". First, I'm starting with:

      G.I. Joe Die-Cast Metal
      Aviva
      1983

      Aviva produced a very small run of vehicles in 1983 which were based on the original wave of vehicles from Hasbro.

      There were six released in total, and each featured moving wheels and parts, such as rotating turrets. It terms of design, these metal miniatures were spot on to those of their larger plastic counterparts. Sadly, there were never released in conjunction with any miniature figures to coincide with them.

       Attack Cannon (FLAK)*Heavy Artillery Laser (HAL)

       Battle Tank (MOBAT)*Rapid Fire Motorcycle (RAM)

      Mobile Missile System (MMS)*Attack Vehicle (VAMP)

      Aviva also release a pack of three vehicles. However, these were just a multipack of the individually carded VAMP, RAM and HAL.


      It's interesting that Aviva never released a second three pack to incorporate the remaining vehicles into one package.

      G.I. Joe Micro Figures
      Hasbro
      1989

      In 1989, Hasbro ran an interesting promotion with their 3 3/4 inch line of G.I. Joe toys. They incorporated into each carded figure a miniature, or micro if you will, figurine made from flexible PVC.

      There were twenty produced in total, and the character included a vast assortment of some of the most popular figures since the beginning of the 1982 wave, all the way through 1989.

       Bazooka

       Beach Head

       Blowtorch

       B.A.T.S.

       Cobra Commander (Metal Helmet)

       Crimson Guard

       Cobra Officer

       Destro

       Duke

       Flint

       General Hawk

       Grunt

       Gung Ho

       Major Blood

       Quick Kick

       Roadblock

       Rock N' Roll (his head anyway, with Repeater's body and gun)

       Sgt. Slaughter

       Snake-Eyes

       Wet Suit

      Hopefully you noticed the poster to the left of each figure. This was a mail away premium, which offered throughout the entire promotion.

      Speaking of mail away promos, Hasbro also produced eight micro vehicles. Much like the poster, collectors could send in their request for them with the aid of two of their Flagg Points plus $7.75 With the exception of 1986 and 1989, there was a vehicle representing each year since the first 1982 wave.

      MOBAT*Persuader*APC*Warthog A.I.F.V.
      Snow Cat*Cobra H.I.S.S.*A.W.E. Striker*Vamp MK II

      Unfortunately, these vehicles were too small to incorporate the figures into.

      However, with all of this said, it leads me into what actually inspired and spawned today's post.

      G.I. Joe World's Smallest Action Figure
      Super Impulse
      2019 / 2020

      I don't normally collect modern toys, but when I saw these being talked about on the Youtube channel of formbx257.

      Super Impulse has made an entire line of various toy lines, and some of those include The Transformers, Mighty Morphin Power Rangers and Barbie, as well as several other novelty and nostalgic based toys. I highly recommend you check them out. If for nothing else, for how cool they are.

      Anyway, back to the point at hand.

      Super Impulse released three Worlds Smallest G.I. Joe figures.

       Duke

      Squint your eyes if you have to. These are 1 1/4 inch tall action figures which come in their own blister packs, all neatly packed inside of a plastic bubble. Now, the cards for the figures aren't actually cardboard. Instead, they're acrylic. To get the figures, and their removable accessories, out, simply open the hatch on the back and remove the contents within.

       Roadblock

      What's equally neat about these is that the miniature "cardbacks" can stand straight up on their own, making them just as fun to display in their packages. However, if you want to remove them, each figure not only has a foot peg hole, but also comes with its own clear action figure stand.

      Snake-Eyes

      While I don't know if you'll find these "everywhere", I do know you can find them, and some of the other Worlds Smallest toys, at Cracker Barrel (of all places). Yes, the restaurant. Or, better stated, their gift shop. They'll set you back around nine or ten dollars each, which is a bit high for something so small.

      I found the three I picked up on ebay and bought them as a set for around $27.00 with free shipping. The guy selling them had nine more sets as of yesterday evening.

      These things are really cool and I hope there is a plan to make more of them.

      This leads me to one last item for today.

      Cobra H.I.S.S. Tank with Lights and Sounds

      For those of you who own the 2014 Cobra H.I.S.S. Tank with Lights and Sounds, you may be happy to hear that the above noted figures from Super Impulse are compatible with it. However, this is probably not intentionally done. Still, it's a pleasant surprise.

      Unfortunately, this vehicle isn't as readily available as it was back in 2014, but you can still find them around here and there - If you look hard enough.
