Black Hole Shreddies- 5 Awesome Things on eBay this week

Black Hole Pencil Holders (eBay Link) 

I don’t think it’s a secret I’m obsessed with these. A Canadian Cereal premium that celebrated the Black Hole’s True stars. I have complete sets but always buy them when I find them. Check out my video about these here. 

 

Space:1999 Koenig Bank- 5 Awesome Things on eBay this week

Space:1999 Commander Koenig (eBay Link)

Lincoln International Mr. Rock- 5 Awesome Sci-fi Things on eBay

Lincoln International Mr Rock minus head (eBay Link)

I know this isn’t a complete figure by any means but Mr. Rock is the rolls royce of Knock-Off action figures and well this is tough stuff. Also, if you win this, let me help you in tracking down a reproduction head. I probably know a guy…

Weird Australian Star Trek Towel (eBay Link)

My good friend Corey sent this to me, and while I’m no stranger to Star Trek towels, this one is hypnotic in its strangeness. It looks like a Ugandan movie poster; I mean that as a compliment. 

 

Slim Goodbody record- 5 Awesome Sci-Fi things on eBay this week

Slim Goodbody’s Galactic Health Adventure (eBay Link)

Full confession, as a kid, I was so starved for Superheroes for a brief while I regularly tuned into Slim Goodbody episodes. It never once motivated me to eat celery but I love him unironically. I’m stupid enough to try and license an action figure too, try and stop me!

 

Hey next week I’m going to be at Power-Con in the Mego Meet area. I’ll also be giving a panel with some other toy magazine and book publishers. It would be really great if you’re in the area to stop in and say hi. I’ll be in the Mego Meet area.

 

Mego Meet 2023 will become part of Power-Con August 11-13 in Columbus, Ohio. Greater Columbus Convention Center
400 North High Street
Columbus, Ohio 43215

    Wait…. you know a guy with a Mr Rock head? I might know a me who could use one….

    Also; I’m waiting to see him show up on “Lower Decks.” (They’ve already shown the Remco helmet…. so I guess it’s cannon now?)
