I am really excited to say that I’ve made a major find and it’s timing couldn’t be better seeing as it’s a Collegeville costume that I didn’t think was real. More after the jump.. When I first posted this costume in the 1973 Collegeville Catalog three years ago, I thought it was the coolest Halloween costume […]
I was rummaging around preparing for our annual month of Halloween and this popped up, it’s an awesome sell sheet for the Syndicated TV movie “Alien Attack” which actually was just two episodes of “Space:1999” glued together and sold as a feature film. I cannot tell you how addicted to these things I was as […]
At one point, this item was my white whale. I never have actually owned one. It’s a pretty rare higher dollar item from AHI, much of their Space:1999 offering could be had with an allowance.
I think the world would be a better place if we all spent our evenings lounging in Moonbase Alpha pajamas…
Here we have the rather odd AHI Eagle one water pistol, it looks kind of ill advised but you have to remember that AHI probably sold a boatload of these so they just applied the Star Trek template to Space:1999 when it came to all merch. What I really enjoy about 1999 merchandising is the amount […]
My pal Will sent me these great shots of the UK version of the Remco/AHI Space:1999 utility belt, which shows a cool illustration of second in command Paul Morrow being rescued by an Eagle. It’s such nice art you don’t even question the big honkin’ “Space:1999” logo on the buckle. The guts are exactly the […]
This ad is from 1978, I find it funny that kids were playing with ships from Gerry Anderson’s (IMO amazing) UFO series a good seven years after it was cancelled. Those Eagles were also more fun than should be humanly allowed.
Another look into the wonderful world of Rack toys and one of it’s shining stars Azrak Hamway, who in the 1970s were the kings of fun, inexpensive licensed toys. 1977 was a pretty big year for Azrak Hamway Inc and they had all the hottest licenses including the superheroes from the house of both DC […]
Besides having a name that is instantly hilarious to young boys, Dinky also made diecast toys covered in all kinds of awesome. Take for example the Eagle One from Space:1999, this was diecast at it’s most brilliant and it was happily just one of the many things they turned out from the Gerry Anderson Stable. […]
Seeing as today is the ten year anniversary of the supposed date that the moon blew out of orbit in Gerry Anderson’s 1975 television series “Space:1999” I thought it would be fun to look at some of the cool merchandise that came out during it’s two year run. Above is the trading card I made […]
