Every time you go to one of those little toy shows at the neighborhood Elks Hall, you can find treasures related to great classic TV shows. This past weekend's show in Royal Oak, Michigan, was no exception. What it lacked in volume it made up for, for the most part, in intrigue. Take the "Welcome Back, Kotter" goodie below. If only it were the 25 cents marked on the box! Evidently that one was a nice little garage sale find the vendor was trying to turn around.
Then we go and spot a Cher dressing room just like what you got to see in the S2E10 of Terrific TV Toys, as well as a Sonny doll and Cher doll, below.
"Dukes of Hazzard" wallet? Precious!
We've been talking a lot on the Terrific TV Toys series about "Batman: The Animated Series," especially since the popular '90s show just had a silver anniversary. There are a ton of figures out there from the series, and above is a couple of carrying cases for them.
Not TV, but still so cool: I've seen this Emerald City playset by Mego a few times at local toy shows, and I'm always tempted by it. I have the set of Wizard of Oz figures, except for the Wicked Witch and the Wizard. The vendor was asking $140 for the whole set, including the four figures in box (the top two were Dorothys). The playset was just missing the yellow brick road, but did have the crystal ball / globe, which is evidently pretty rare.
And here are a couple more dolls this author also has from her childhood ... Mego's 12-inch Farrah Fawcett (wearing a vintage '70s Barbie dress), as well as the Darci doll by Kenner. They were marked $55 each.
