Today on the Toy Power Podcast, we look at a vintage line from LJN – no it’s not ThunderCats, say hello to the Super-Future-Family, The Bionic Six. With a theme song that sounds like a Rick Astley cover, these GI Joe sized figures are another 80s line that you may not remember. But stick around and learn about this crazy line including the most amazing origin story you will ever hear! We also attempt to answer a un-finished piece of toy history – what does F.L.U.F.F.I stand for? We then welcome a special guest to the show – Frank’s wife Ali Allan! She helps the team answer tough questions as we look at our collections through the lense of our significant others. What’s their reactions? Do they attempt to buy stuff for us? Where do they draw the line? What’s it like to live with a collector? Is this show a podcast or a support group for the truly addicted? Was Frank bullied by school kids into buying toys? And where does Monopoly Man fit into all this?
