Disney’s 1979 “The Black Hole” Weeties Shrinkies

Posted on July 6, 2011 By Toltoys Kid No Comments on Disney’s 1979 “The Black Hole” Weeties Shrinkies
70's, Cereal, Kelloggs, Licensed, Premiums

Thanks to Toltoys Kid reader “robspromos” I’m delighted to present the complete set of shrinkie premiums from the 1979 Nabisco Weeties Australia cereal tie-in. A small set of five that were issued in these boxes, and very tough to find. A bit of a strange mix of characters and ships, but kids weren’t complaining when … Read More “Disney’s 1979 “The Black Hole” Weeties Shrinkies” »

The First LEGO Store: Birkenhead Point Sydney LEGO Centre

80's, Catalogues, LEGO, Promotional

PLEASE NOTE: This store closed down 20 years ago! There are currently no official Lego Stores in Australia. Since Australia began its love affair with LEGO in 1962 we have been collectively obsessed with the stuff. It should come as no surprise then that the world’s first dedicated LEGO store was opened not in Denmark, … Read More “The First LEGO Store: Birkenhead Point Sydney LEGO Centre” »

70's, Toltoys, Weird Toys, WHAM-O

One of the most viewed posts here on Toltoys Kid is the entry featuring Willy Water Bug. I receive regular requests asking where they can be found today, unfortunatey I’m not much help, suggesting they start a ongoing search on ebay. It seems the kids of the 70’s want their kids today to enjoy the … Read More “1979 Toltoys Fun Fountain” »

This is actually the third time I have blogged about this particular promotion, the first time I was speculating as to whether it had ever actually gone ahead, the second time I was delighted to confirm it had by producing a cut back and side panel from the box, and now finaly I have a … Read More “1977 Kenbrite / Playmobil Pocket People Kellogg’s Corn Flakes Promotion” »

Disney’s 1979 The Black Hole Weeties Cereal Promotion

Posted on May 14, 2011June 28, 2011 By Toltoys Kid No Comments on Disney’s 1979 The Black Hole Weeties Cereal Promotion
70's, Cereal, Kelloggs, Kellogs, Licensed, Premiums

In the wake of Star Wars came a slew of wannabe space epics, but Disney did quite a respectable job with it’s 1979 production of “The Black Hole” . The robots had jerky actions and the actors were robotic, and let’s not mention the tinny sound and special effects, but as a nine year old … Read More “Disney’s 1979 The Black Hole Weeties Cereal Promotion” »

If you’re a fan of the classic Universal Monsters (and who isn’t?) you’ll enjoy seeing this licensed tie-in with Nabisco Australia’s Weeties brand of cereal from 1982. The “Doublies” refers to the fact that instead of printing one sticker with a plain backing piece, doublies use the backing piece as a swap card featuring the … Read More “1982 Weeties Universal Monster “Doublies”” »

In 2007 I showcased the take-home box for Paul’s Buck Rogers ice creams, featuring the Star Stick competition for MEGO Buck Rogers action figures. Since then I’ve been lucky enough to track down both the Milk Bar store dislay and an example of the wrapper, so I’m going to call that a complete set and … Read More “Vintage Buck Rogers Australian Ice Creams” »

A few years ago I posted the Milk Bar store display for “Smurfee” Smurf ice creams, now here are three wrappers from that same 1979 release.   I’m not sure why the wrapper above is in landscape while the two below are portrait. Possibly the difference was between those purchased in Milk Bars and those … Read More “Peters Smurfee Ice Cream Wrappers” »

Continuing the theme of Toltoys stickered MEGO figures, here are three examples of Australian issued figures from the 1970’s Happy Days line, based on a the hugely successful US sitcom, we have Potsy, Richie and the Fonz.

70's, MEGO, Toltoys

Not many toys captured the 70’s zeitgeist as well as these Starksy & Hutch action figures, inspired by the funky cop show of the same name. The figures below were part of the Mego range of S&H merchandise, the Toltoys stickers indicating these examples were Australian releases.
