10 Awesome Things on eBay this Halloween

Ninja on the Skateboard (eBay Link) –

I don’t know how the skateboard wheels don’t kinda offset the whole “sneaking up on people” thing, but I’m not going to question it. It’s a Ninja on a skateboard.

Super Cool Beach T-Shirt (eBay Link) –
I am filled with a murderous rage that this isn’t an XL.

Lynda Carter bootleg figures from Argentina (eBay Link) –

I’ve seen bajillions of bootleg Wonder Woman merch in my time, but I’ve never seen bootleg Lynda Carter in that wetsuit Wonder Woman merch before. It seems like a thing I’d remember.

The Defenders Gun Set (eBay Link) –

As Rack Toys go, this, my friends, is a masterpiece. It looks licensed. This is one of those kinds of Rack Toys that make you think there is a Defenders TV Show or Comic out there, and you just haven’t seen it. It’s that good; can we talk about how absolutely dripping in the 70s this is? Oh, it probably smells like cigarettes and “the Dry look.”

70s Sticker Collection (eBay Link)–

I recently found a similar one of these and loved the good energy it had. Here’s another fun lot of memories if anybody is interested.

House of Frankenstein Wax Museum Sticker (eBay Link) –

I’ve never been to this House of Frankenstein, but it’s my idea of Graceland. I know, big surprise, I like spooky wax museums. I want to collect all this merch but so do a lot of people.

Tyrano Godzilla Knock-Off (eBay Link) –

The one thing I love about knock-offs is sometimes the toy is better than officially licensed merchandise. This guy spots smoke, roars, walks and moves his arm. What a time to be alive…

Vintage Doctor Doom Halloween Mask (eBay Link) –

This early bit of Marvel Merch just screams, “KIRBY!” and if that wasn’t enough, its choice of colours is brilliant.

Monster Puffy Stickers Vending Machine Card (eBay Link) –

If you follow this feature, you know I am obsessed with these and am also afraid of collecting them. This set is the one that almost broke me, I adore those Imperial Monster Stickers and gahhhhh, it tasks me!

Russ Berry Troll Grim Reaper (eBay Link) –

Honestly, this makes more sense. Why would the grim reaper be scary looking? I don’t think that helps in his job and sending people to the great beyond. I bet he looks like this.
