Kenner got the deal because Mego Corporation which made action figures for both DC and Marvel Comics had turned down the offer to produce the Star War toys.

Something thanks. I have been trying to locate a replacement toy I had as a child and need help. It was a plastic, orange Corvette Stingray. It measured about a foot in length and operated by a hand-held pump that connected to the car by a plastic tube, under the back end of the car. When you pumped the hand-held device, the car would go forwards, go backwards, turn directions, etc. Corvette issued a Stingray in as a promotional, but was a shelf model only.
It looked exactly like that model , but mine moved about…. I am looking for a game it had a bouy on two cords. It is for two players you stand apart and open your arms and the bouy zips down to the other player and they zip the bouy back to you. I think it was called bouy zip line.
Thank You. And was powered by the big batteries lol. If its the same as I used to have it use to say bizquit instead of biscuit. Battery or adapter. Im wrecking my brains as to what it was called.
Grandstand I Q builder. My first computer. Theres still some of them for sale. Now Im trying to remember a game. The fly buzzed around unseen and you had to guess where it landed. There were a series of miniature cars, about the same size as Matchbox or Hot Wheels. They were all plastic and had a metalized-looking surface. They had a small internal wind-up motor that, when you dragged the car backward, wound the motor up and you would let it go to race it. The text kept freezing on me.
Good Luck!! Doll, collectible disney soaps, etc. I was looking for something similar and finding it hard to locate or even name. Mine was bigger in build but a wind up with the wheels. Any help on this would be much appreciated.

It was a plastic tree house, which had 3 birds in, blue and pink birds. It use to play Brahms lullaby, and when it did the birds use to alternately swing out of the bird house. I am looking for a plastic forest tower from 70s, maybe early 80s.
