Spotted Online – Shogun Warriors Coloring Book at Plaid Stallions
In my latest book project, Action Figures Not Included, I included a three-page section showcasing coloring books and how they functioned as marketing for action figures back in the eighties. I collected far more coloring books than I had room for in the book, and just knowing how many more are out there kinda makes me wish for a book of nothing but coloring books based on toylines from the seventies and eighties.
For example, this Shogun Warriors coloring book at Plaid Stallions would absolutely have to be in such a book. The cover’s awesome, but once you go inside the coloring book things start to get really . . . bad may be the word for it.

Hilarious review and horrible looking pages but isn’t what the seventies were all about? I own copies of the Shogun Warriors comics and they’re not exactly award winners. They are inspiration for Kaiju Kaos.
