Dynamite Magazine Panels

[deweyinthehall]

Incidentally, I have images of perhaps 80% of these panels in case anyone has any requests.

Awesome! I look forward to reading more; I have 16 Dynamite/Hot Dog magazines with panels, and I'm still looking to track down the rest.

I also have a few questions you might answer along the way. For example, does Hot Dog 9, with Miss Piggy on the cover, have 1981 Topps baseball cards in it? And I'm unsure about Dynamite 127. Are there cards like the cover says? If so, what are they?

Again, really looking forward to following this thread!!!

Hi - I have no idea what Hot Dog Magazine is/was - did their issues also include cards?

I just checked into Dynamite 127 and lo and behold it has cards. I had thought 1984 was the final year, but was wrong. I will work 1985 and if needed beyond into my research and provide updates here.

Neither did I, I think it was distributed through schools. https://www.ebay.com/itm/12547590188...Bk9SR57n2-6OZQ

Oh, crap - Topps had ANOTHER way of distributing cards?!?

I'm gonna need to incorporate this into my Topps Set Pages (shameless plug - https://mrpekrul.wixsite.com/narciss...ps-set-history)

I have been interested in these for a few years now

The magazines arent rare but arent common either

In my opinion they are undervalued

Is there any indication of other sports (football) ?

While looking at the Hot Dog magazines on eBay I noticed the 1984 Michael Jackson issue had 1984 Topps Football stickers.
