Watch It With the Pointy Thing!

This comes courtesy of the Mego Museum, a rather impressive collection of old-time toys:



I'm assuming that this posing is supposed to be Wonder Woman and "Nubia" engaging in combat. Looks like Wonder Woman's about to become a real amazon (you know...how the Greek translation of "a-mazos" means "without breast" and how there's the tradition that Amazons cut off one boob to...oh hell, just read the damned Etymology section of the friggin Wikipedia article). Actually, the pose is rather open to interpretation. Could be that Wonder Woman is opening her arms to embrace the glittery Diana Ross lookalike? You decide, but what's with the sword placement?

Speaking of which, how many of us would've been happy to have Wonder Woman in our pocket?



Anyway, the Megomuseum website has plenty of things to see. If you were born between 1970 and 1975, you'll certainly appreciate the kids' outfits on the front page.

In the meantime, as a blog-to-blog plug to neatorama.com, enjoy girls bathing at the KFC.

What Kind of Party Is This?

I really got a chuckle out of the Disney Princess who will come to your party that I posted yesterday. To be fair, the actress/entrepreneur who advertises herself on this site makes it perfectly clear on the site's home page that her services are for children's parties. But then, our site is about the "unintentional," and the first time I found this picture, I swore it was for an adult site. Fetish is all about fun, after all, and the closing line of that page says, "The Little Mermaid can do all the activities." What activities she can do is not specified on that page. Coming into the site and bypassing the home page like I did might create a different first impression. Someone organizing a "special party" or Disney Fetishists Convention might look to have Tinkerbell, Sleeping Beauty, or to "Bring a piece of Oz to your party" (careful how you pronounce Oz) with Dorothy. I'm sure this lady is very nice and provides great entertainment at children's parties. Children's theater is a lot of work, especially when the kids are yelling, throwing things, or not into the show. Plus, this girl appears to be the only on-stage talent for this company. Power to her. I do suggest that she update her website banner so that certain weirdos don't stumble on to the site thinking it's something it's not. Also, don't write your bio in the third person. That is weird, despite the lovely photo. Piece of Oz indeed.
