Relive the excitement of the 70s with Kenner’s Six Million Dollar Man toys! From bionic limbs to Steve Austin himself, these action figures continue to mesmerize collectors today. Dive into the legacy of this beloved childhood memory and discover why it still holds a special place in our hearts.
The 1970s was a decade of cultural change and experimentation, and this was reflected in the toys of the time.

My friends, bear with me as I wax poetic about a podcast that saw me through many an hour of being locked in a day cage, re: cubicle. Pod Stallions. I’ve listed to episodes over and over. It’s as if Brian, of Plaid Stallions, and Jason, of Bif Bang Pow toys, became my friends in […]
I wanted my own Obi-Wan Kenobi figure in Kenner style, so I made my own.
