Mego Planet of the Apes Jail – Toy-Ventures magazine
Working on issue 10 of Toy-Ventures Magazine, and for no good reason, I thought it might be fun to try and recreate the artwork of the beautiful accessories boxes. I am something of an impulsive creature.
My first attempt is the Planet of the Apes Jail, a silly toy with an awesome box. I had a few limitations with this one, like the Jail on the box differs from the toy. Also, you can get only so much dynamic action from a type 1 Mego figure, but I got close enough to share.
Mego Planet of the Apes Jail – Toy-Ventures magazine
Look for Issue 10 of Toy-Ventures at the end of May; it will continue our Mego apes coverage and a mind-blowing amount of toy goodness.

Keen-eared listeners of the Pod Stallions podcast know that those boys can talk, know a lot of stuff and have opinions, whether they’re asked for or not. Each episode peels back another layer of the enigma-onion that is BraSon, revealing more of their likes, loves and mehs. We thought it was a good time to rip another layer off and talk about What We’ve Been Watching Lately. Comedy, horror, Love Boat, documentary, sci-fi, Love Boat and punk rock are all discussed as well as the Love Boat. It’s like a convo between video store geeks if we still had video stores to hang out in. Give it a whirl; who knows? You just might get turned on to try some suggestions and may even be familiar with others. But don’t forget, Be Kind, Rewind.
Topics include Green Room, VFW, Love Boat, Doctor Who, Are you being served?, Star Trek, History of the World Part 2, Battlefield Earth, The Intruder Within, GORP, Patrick, Australian Cinema, Documentaries, Bob and David, Dick Shawn, Failed TV pilots, #podstallions #plaidstallions #toyventures #startrek #loveboat #tvpilots
So wade in, as the curtain is pulled back to reveal Brian and Jason at their most naked (metaphorically, obviously), in Pod Stallions‘ Group Free For All!
Issue 9 of Toy-Ventures Magazine is now available and features our guide (and fanboyish love letter) to one of Mego‘s most underrated toy lines. Packaging variations, prototypes, foreign distributor variants, unproduced art, it’s all there.

It’s been a while since I posted any updates, so here we go.
As I begin laying out my next book, “Mall of Justice,” and hope for a 2023 release, I once again plead with you for submissions. I want to share your photos and stories if you met He-Man at Toys R Us or Captain America at a Car wash. It doesn’t matter if “Chewbacca” was a guy wearing loafers in a gorilla mask; that’s a bonus!
Store mascots are cool, too; the weirder, the better.
Send your stories and photos to toyventuresmag@gmail.com, and I’ll do my best to include them in the publication.
Mall of Justice is super (pun intended) personal for me, as an encounter with the Marvel heroes in a Woolco was highly impactful on my young brain.
I’ve been carefully curating many of these photos over the years, but I could use more. Hoping to launch the book this fall.
Other ways to help, share this page or share the FB page on Social Media, let friends know. I could really use a leg up.
About Mall of Justice- “Mall of Justice” celebrates the sometimes clunky and silly costumed character appearances that doted our suburban landscape in the 70s, 80s and 90s. Featuring a series of submitted photos and memories from the kids who experienced them. Before Cosplay, we had Mall Appearances.
Written by Brian Heiler, author of “Rack Toys: Cheap Crazed Playthings” and “Knock-Offs: Totally Unauthorized Action Figures” this new publication will be a photo review of wonky Darth Vaders, Batman with mustaches and truly disturbing He-Men.
