As I have made my journey through the M*A*S*H licensed products universe, I have written about a variety of products ranging from M*A*S*H themed alcohol, action figures, Halloween costumes, games, a train set, toys, and clothing (I previously wrote about a licensed products kit distributed by Twentieth Century Fox Television). Last month, I wrote about a beach towel that featured the original cast.Continue reading “MishM*A*S*H 49: Durham’s Action Figures”

MishM*A*S*H 45: Bachmann M*A*S*H Supply Train Set
I am not a model railroader, but I have heard of Bachmann. I remember seeing model train sets in the store when I was a kid, and while I liked them, I don’t remember ever having one. That changed in 2024 when I purchased a complete in box Bachmann M*A*S*H Supply Train set. They aren’tContinue reading “MishM*A*S*H 45: Bachmann M*A*S*H Supply Train Set”
MishM*A*S*H 37: M*A*S*H Halloween Costume
In the spirit of Halloween this week, I thought it was appropriate to find something Halloween related. Despite mostly collecting items from the production of M*A*S*H, I do have some licensed products that were produced and sold during the show’s original run. In 1981, the costume company Ben Cooper released a M*A*S*H themed Halloween costumeContinue reading “MishM*A*S*H 37: M*A*S*H Halloween Costume”
MishM*A*S*H 35: Tristar Dog Tags
This week, we continue to review licensed M*A*S*H products, and I chose to continue with a product offered by Tristar: personalized stainless steel dog tags. Each military character on M*A*S*H wore a set of dog tags, and famously the dog tags worn by each actor belonged to someone from the armed forced. Jamie Farr woreContinue reading “MishM*A*S*H 35: Tristar Dog Tags”

MishM*A*S*H 34: Military Base Play Set
One of the most unique, and popular, licensed M*A*S*H related toys released was made by Tristar in the early 1980s. While I do not typically collect toys and licensed products, I have made a few exceptions. The M*A*S*H Military Base Play Set is something I wanted in the collection for years, and I was ableContinue reading “MishM*A*S*H 34: Military Base Play Set”
MishM*A*S*H 22: Licensed Product Kit
By the end of the M*A*S*H series run, the show had been successful in ratings, won dozens of awards, and had performed well in retail sales. There were countless licensed products for M*A*S*H that were sold beginning in the 1970s and through today. The height of the product popularity, however, was the early to mid-1980s.Continue reading “MishM*A*S*H 22: Licensed Product Kit”
