Share and Enjoy.

So much eye candy! Love the Spectreman ad! Those enamel pins are also purty spiffy! I wonder if anyone here has any? Thanks for posting these!

^^ you're most welcome!

Next up, Aoshima.

That Viking ship and figures are stupendous ! If I read the logo correctly, I believe it says Aoshima ? Must have !

^^ Yeah, mate - Aoshima.
That Viking ship set really stands out, doesn't it?

I get a pure hit of nostalgia when i look at ads like that -
reminds me of how much fun 'sets' were when i was a kid.
To receive a single toy was one thing, but getting a whole
set in one go was very satisfying!

Next, soft drinks & a ton of sweets/candy ads . . . .
