Happy Friday, here are the 5 Awesome Things on eBay this week, technically it’s 6 but who is counting?

I had a little fun with this page from a catalogue for a chain called “Johnny’s Toys.” I love that it’s clearly 1976, and they’re still advertising a Mego Removable Cowl Batman. I don’t believe that would be what you got at that time. It’s also an epic assortment; the only thing missing is Crazy […]
Dr Zaius Bank Mold (eBay Link) – There have been a few of the various moulds for banks on eBay recently, I guess that’s because they were made in the states. This one is really tasking me, I mean it’s Doctor Zaius and it’s super rare. These are my triggers… GI Joe figure from […]
