5 Awesome Things on eBay this week
Vanity Fair Joker (eBay Link) –
This is the infamous shooting range toy that basically has Batman murdering the Joker and Hoo Doggie; this thing is rare. I don’t know if I’ve ever seen one before in real life. I even contemplated bidding, which doesn’t make much sense for me personally, but this thing has an allure. It’s also just cartoonishly grotesque, which just makes it better, IMO.
World of Sid and Marty Krofft Pennent (eBay Link)—
Another wonderful bit of merch from the short-lived theme park in Atlanta. If this had a Sleestak on it, it’d be on it’s way to my home.
Kiss prototype toy photos (eBay Link) —
This seller has a bunch of interesting KISS prototypes photos, I’m not sure if they’re original, they sure appear to be legit. This is likely a forgotten REMCO/AHI RC car but the seller has some other neat ones.
Barba Papa Magic Slate (eBay Link) —
I am pretty sure I still say “Clickety Click- Barba Trick!” once a month to this day.
OK Mike Action Figures –(eBay Link)
I love knockoffs, especially when they’re copying something I already love, like Big Jim. I especially love it when their names don’t translate all that well. “OK, Mike” is one of those creations. Mike also comes in Red where he looks a lot like Lee Majors, so he’s two things!!!!!

I have the red version of OK Mike (with the box and the rafting set) and yes, he does resemble The Six Million Dollar Man.
I hear OK Mike is pretty decent. He looks like he could double as a Ross Hagen action figga.
That Barbapapa slate is a two-for-one memory jogger. I remember being obsessed with Barbapapa as a little one, and getting a few of those slates at the local Towers store. I love how the package art shows the family interacting with multiple slates.
