It’s that time of year again. What time is that you ask? Halloween of course. What better way to celebrate than with a thematic entry for such a spooky day.
You’ve seen one zombie, you’ve seen ‘em all, right? Wrong.
Look at this guy. He’s all f-ed up.
Naked,
Green,
Covered with juicy, candy-coated sores,
Oozing puss
… and he’s balding.
It’s tough […]
So, a Disney toy is making an appearance on the Weirdo Toys blog.
Well, not exactly.
I recently discovered this primitive “Micky Mouse” in an article over at Boing-Boing, that discusses the controversial origins of that punk “Mickey Mouse” and his toys.

So, this is the 3rd and last toy I found at the White Horse Road Flea Market last Sunday. One of the vendors had a stack of these things selling them for a buck each. They were actually produced in 1986. It turned out to be an 80s toy weekend.
It’s Humpty Dumpty!
He’s not as cute […]
