Classic Collectibles of the Day! DOUBLE POST!

Two for one tonight, to make up for last night!

majormattmason

First up is this super-cool Major Matt Mason playset, with an assortment of figures! I don't think I ever had MMM myself as a kid, but I remember that my younger cousin, J.J., did have a bunch of them... and yes, I thought they were very cool!

Again, I think it's high time Mattel did a reissue of these things!

Now, for a toy that's really old:

rocketride

This battery-powered tin toy is very neat. I've always been a big fan of amusement park rides, and toys of amusement park rides are very cool, too (I was always disappointed that I never got any of the MPC "Zap! Action" model kits based on Pirates of the Caribbean or the Haunted Mansion). I know there's a few scale model kids of some amusement park rides (motors purchased separately) that you can get online from a few places, but there's nothing around like this rocket ride toy!
