5 Awesome Things on eBay this week
Kid’s Aquaman T-Shirt from 1974 (eBay Link)–
I cannot get over this shirt, not only is it a very early piece of Aquaman merch but it’s the Filmation Aquaman! I loved that cartoon as a kid/kidult and this is just too good but sadly, I’m an XL.
Village People Glenn Halloween Costume (eBay Link)–
If there is a better symbol for the phrase “It was a more innocent time”, I’ve never seen it.
Spider-Man Klinger (eBay Link) –
I’m fond of the weird toys of Durham Industries and this awesome Spider-Man makes you want an object that you really don’t have any use for.
Buck Rogers Presto Magix (eBay Link)–
I’m not sure which is stronger, my love for Buck Rogers or my love for Presto Magix? I may never know the answer to that but I know I’d like to own this.
Japanese Ron Ely Tarzan Model Kit (eBay Link)–
Here’s another insanely cool thing from Japan. A Ron Ely Tarzan model kit? Did I miss a meeting? Ahhhhh!

Mego Knock Off Headquarters– The leading group discussing 70s Dime store knock-offs and bootleg action figures, we talk vintage toys and not others. We know the difference between Astro Apes and Action Apeman. It’s a fun group where we talk about Lincoln International, AHI, Mighty Gary, Tomland, Bogi, Demo Man, Mortoys, and other generic greats.
80s Knock-Off Ninjas
Hard to tell because of the image resolution but I’m certain the art on that Aquaman t-shirt is by the late Dave Cockrum of New X-Men and Legion of Super-Heroes fame.
Cool! I had no idea.
Oh man! As a huge Aquaman fan, especially of the 1960’s-1970’s era, I actually hit “buy it now” on the Aquaman t-shirt. Thanks for the heads up on that!
Congrats, I’m a little envious.
I have the Spider-man Klinger. It’s a bit faded, but still displays nicely with my other weird Spider-man items.
