It also included a comic book featuring Dagwood Bumstead (the man who couldn’t leave his own house without knocking the mailman down) describing how to split an atom. The Lab came equipped with a Geiger-Mueller radiation counter, a Wilson cloud chamber (to see paths of alpha particles), a spinthariscope (to see "live" radioactive disintegration), four samples of Uranium-bearing ores, and an electroscope to measure radioactivity. government, which thought that such a toy would help the average American understand the benefits of nuclear energy. while developing the kit, and also had the unofficial approval of the U.S. Gilbert worked closely with physicists at M.I.T. Gilbert, the man who invented the Erector Set, introduced a brand new educational toy: the Gilbert U-238 Atomic Energy Lab.

WHAM-O AIR BLASTERīy Webms (online), via Wikimedia Commons Plasti-Goop was marketed as “non-toxic,” but that was in 1964 before the dangers of little things like melted PVC and lead paint were generally known. Ideally, you were supposed to wait until after you’d unplugged the Thing Maker and it had cooled off before removing your Creepy Crawlers, but who has time for that when you want to put a fake spider in your sister’s bed before she turns in? Burns and blisters were a fact of life in the plastic bug business, and you simply sprayed the injury with some Bactine and hid it from Mom so she wouldn’t take your Thing Maker away. Then you poured “Plasti-Goop” into the creepy insect-shaped metal molds and waited for them to heat-set. The Thing Maker was a gadget you plugged in and then waited until it heated up to 300☏. CREEPY CRAWLERSĪn exposed hot plate combined with potentially toxic fumes equaled fun in 1964. Topper Toys used a unique tactic to give Johnny Seven maximum exposure: instead of only stocking it in toy and department stores, they also made it available in grocery stores, a place mom usually dragged her kids to at least once per week. Johnny Seven weighed about four pounds fully assembled, so a kid got a good aerobic workout when he ran around toting one outside in the fresh air and sunshine. Johnny Seven came equipped with a cap pistol, rocket launcher, and “armor piercing” bullets, along with a few other features necessary for stopping Communism dead in its tracks.
Back then we had wholesome products like the Johnny Seven One Man Army, which was the biggest-selling toy for boys in 1964. Nothing but shooting and street fighting and an overall culture of violence. No wonder kids today get into so much trouble-it’s those consarned video games they’re always playing.
