Vintage Star Trek Towel (sponsored link) 

I really dig Star Trek merch like this but I have to get controversial here (as controversial as you can get when discussing a towel) this appears to be based on the 3rd season episode “The Empath,” which is next to “The Alternative Factor” on my “Worst episodes of  Star Trek” list.

Buck Rogers Space Marbles by Imperial toy (sponsored link) 

Two points for making the bubble for the shape of Twiki but what exactly makes them “Space Marbles?”

Big Plush Monster Foot from 1973 (sponsored link) —

I love 70s nonsense like this.

Frankenstein Black Light Poster (Sponsored Liink)—

Hoo doggy, I wish I had more wall space left. I love everything about this: the subject matter, the design and the colours.

Ziggy Belt Buckle from the 1970s (sponsored link) —

My local country bar closed down, which is a shame because I’ll never get to stroll in proudly displaying this beauty and winning over the bar patrons “Pee Wee Herman” style.

PlaidStallions Action Figure Archive

The Croner Buck Rogers action figure line is one of the more curious toy lines as Australia is the only place in the world to have two competing action figure lines for Buck Rogers, Croner and Mego.

Are these made by Mego? It’s not known but they sure look similar, more at the Plaid Stallions Action Figure Archive.

More Updates all this week.

Cheers!
