Both of these are available at my ToysRUs. Unfortunately my kids are a little to old for Little People. But finally an invisible jet has been produced.
 
link to the jet for anyone who wants a better look (Thom maybe):

Bit of a toy quest question here for the more middling to older folks on the board. I've looked and can't find this on EBay or anything. It may be that my search terms are faulty.
Does anyone remember, from the early 70s, a little plastic multiscope device that would have been found in cheap toy outlets like drugstores or the supermarket toy aisle? I believe they were molded in blue. They were in the standard magnifying glass shape, but thicker. A hinged magnifying glass on each side, one face had a mirror and the other a compass. The barrel handle telescoped out maybe an inch or so and it too had two hinged magnifying glasses on it at the bottom. These flipped out to be parallel with the larger ones on top. Basically, when all four glasses were flipped into the out position, you could use the thing like a little set of binoculars. You could use the mirror side in conjunction with its magnifying glass to fry flies or presumably start a fire. There may have also been a small storage compartment behind the mirror, but I don't remember for sure. I must have gone through half a dozen of them as a child because, although they were cool, they were flimsy construction. Any bells anyone?

Getting new Marvel Universe figure in local retail seems few and far between, I was shocked to find Kang the other day. For anyone collecting them they have stopped putting the Name Stand in with the figures now.

I picked these up at the Baltimore Con. I think it is cool that you can make Captain Action either the Golden Age or the Silver Age Captain America.
I have been wanting these two for a while:

I found these two at the Baltimore show as well. While not collecting all of these, I am starting to pick up characters that I really like. I was so happy to get the Mr.Terrific. He's neat.

I bought this for a friend. It would be neat if this was the size and function like the Shogun Warriors.
