Coolest Star Trek Toys of the 70s
I owned quite a few of these as a child.
The root site, plaidstallions.com, is a smorgasbord of seventies kitsch. If you grew up in the seventies, it's a veritable time machine.
UPDATE: For those of you who grew up with me in Pasadena, Texas... I was looking through some other stuff on the site and found this page. Scroll about two-thirds down the page and you'll find photos of an old Game Player mall store that looks to me like it's probably the one in the old Pasadena Town Square, though it's labeled as being in "Houstan" [sic].
Below it are photos of the Game Peddler, (also in "Houstan"), which may be the one that was in Almeda mall, though I don't have a very clear memory of where it was located in that legendary edifice.
Wow. I think I've overdosed on nostalgia after seeing those photos.

Man...I got chills! :)
I recognize them both. Game Player from Pasadena Town Square & the Game Peddler looks very much like the one at Baybrook Mall. I remember the really cool chess sets sitting in the display window. I've got so much nostalgia overload I'm going to have to blog about this now. Thanks!
