Azrak Hamway International (AHI) Gallery

When it comes to licensed rack toys, AHI was the absolute king. This may have been due to the hiring of former Mego Vice President Neil Saul in the early Seventies. Saul brought with him much of his licensing expertise honed at Mego. Below are some items that Azrak Hamway is famous for in terms of Rack Toys. Always interested in photos of things not seen here. . Some Links of Interest would be our AHI Super Monsters Gallerythe 1976 Azrak Hamway Catalog and the 1979 AHI Toys Catalog. We have so many new additions that they've been broken into categories based on license, look for additions to this all year. First up is our AHI Star Trek Toys gallery It's a toy department ruled by APES! AHI really had fun with the Planet of the Apes License, check out it's gallery here. The ambitious Gerry Anderson Science Fiction series Space: 1999 was the subject of many AHI products. Perhaps no other character got as much merchandise from AHI than the caped crusader. Check out our AHI Batman Toys gallery If Batman, get a car, then even if it doesn't make a lot of sense Spider-Man needs a car, so AHI made lots of copters and boats for him too. Stan Lee commanded them too! Superheroes a big staple for the AHI rack toy program, these inexpensive parachute men were very popular. Other heroes such as Robin, Captain America, Penguin and Joker were also made. (Scan courtesy of Mike Jimenez). Two AHI Parachuting Superman courtesy of Steve Leach, Steve believes the one on the left to be a knockoff, although it looks better than the licensed AHI model which is obviously just a reworked Batman, complete with gloves and a fringed cape. This Batrocket is indicative of later AHI packaging design. These Bat vehicles by AHI offered a lower cost alternative to the diecast Corgi products available at the time. It's amazing how many vehicles Spider-Man has in the toy world. These fly away copters for Spider-man and Batman were popular items. Zing Wings were Frisbees using all of AHI's top selling licensed characters. It's not often you see M*A*S*H merchandise but the Helicopters make perfect sense, SWAT too I assume. As part of their "world's greatest Super Monsters" series (which emulated the Mego World's Greatest Superheroes closely), the Creature is without a doubt, the most desirable figure in the series.
