I received these Canadian department store Consumers Distributing catalogues in the mail today. Issues 1977/1978, 1979/1980, 1980/1981, 1982/1983 (US version) & 1983/1984.
Talk about taking a trip down memory lane.
Just a few tidbits inside them:
1977/1978: Kenner's Six Million Dollar Man $9.49, Transport Repair Station $12.49, Bionic Woman $10.49, Space 1999 Stun Gun $6.97, Space 1999 Utility Belt 3.75. Oh man that hurts!
1979/1980: SW Death Star Station $29.99, Die Casts as low as $4.99, Millennium Falcon $35.55, Jawa Playset $12.77, 12" Boba Fett $19.99, other 12" $12.97, 3 pack Figures $6.99 & the Wind Up Walking R2 a whopping low of $2.99. Oh that price on the R2 really hurts more now.
