Fall Guy Target Set- 5 Awesome Things on eBay this week

Fall Guy Target Set by Arco (eBay Link)__

I am not positive what Colt Seavers has to do with a Target set but seeing as he was a stunt man, you could sell a Colt Seavers space helmet I guess.

As an enthusiast of the Drive-In culture, I heartily recommend putting one of these in your rumpus room when you’re watching your Blu-Ray restoration of “Death Machines” on your 4k TV. Also get an air fryer, that totally helps as well.

I really wonder if this is officially licensed, it’s so silly and lazy in a good way. Is there a Kato?

Where’s the Beef Puzzle (eBay Link)-

I hope historians find one of these in the year 3949 and try to figure it out. I sure can’t. Why did we merchandise a clever Hamburger commercial? I mean it’s cute but not timeless like the “Whaassssup” guys from Budweiser (still funny!). Which reminds me, one of my co-workers just blurted out “I’m not the Herb you’re looking for” in a meeting a while back and nobody but me got the reference. It was amazing.

I forget that we once made toys for children based on political leader’s kids but this totally happened. Amy Carter also inspired this kind of Awesome playset too, although that White House is super duper out of scale.

    I bet MacGyver could make those walkie-talkies work

    At least the Fall Guy shooting range makes a lot more sense than the WWF version.

    Somebody probably could have made some dough with a Chelsea Clinton or the Obama kids doll.

    A Hunter Biden doll might bring in some kale, too.
