Micronauts Biotron Halloween Costume (affiliate link)—

Oh my goodness, would I like to own this masterpiece. I love the comics, I love the toys, come to Brian……for a huge discount.

Welcome Back Kotter Skateboarders (affiliate link) —

This was a really weird line from Gabriel, not known for this sort of thing. They also came out in 1978 when the show was pretty much kaput.

Spider-Woman UndeRoos (affiliate link) —

As much as a Spider-Woman fan I am, I haven’t picked the underoos. Fortunately the prices didn’t sky rocket after the box office smash that was Madame Web.

Paul Naschy Night of the Werewolf brochure (affiliate link) —

Yesterday was Halloween and I am not going to let it slide without praising the awesome Paul Naschy.

Hunter British Annual (affiliate link)-–

Man, every TV show ever has a UK annual, I’m positive there is one for “The BeachCombers” (AKA Canada’s greatest export) I can’t wait to dig into those stories and puzzles.

Jaws Arcade Game Sell Sheet (eBay Affiliate Link) –

As a kid, I wasn’t allowed in the early 1970s arcades, which spawned a fascination with the games. I have played this at the CNE or Wasaga Beach (which had antique arcade machines in the 1990s) but I can’t remember the game. What a lovely cabinet, it just grabs you.

Cool 80s Inflatable Monster Chair (eBay Affiliate Link) —

I think it’s unrealistic to think I’ll ever be 85 pounds again, but bobdammit I want this chair. It’s my on-going obsession with Lizard Men, this guy looks like he jumped out of “Archer: Fugitive from the Empire” if you get that reference, we’re close in age.

Super Cool 70s Batman pencil case (eBay Affiliate Link) —

I’ve never seen this case before; there is something about 70s off-model DC Comics characters. Also, I’m a really big fan of The Riddler, so that makes me a bit biased. I do love his booties.

Airwolf Underoos (eBay Affiliate Link) 

Good news Canada, you’re getting exclusive Underoos of Airwolf. Bad News Canada, you’re also making a 4th season of Airwolf with Barry Van Dyke and nobody else.

Tron Shreddies Box (eBay Affiliate Link) ––

More Canada? You got it bub!

Many people might know of my childhood battles with Shreddies (AKA the wallpaper paste you won’t die from eating). After the Black Hole, Shreddies never got me with another promotion. However, in the 1990s, they started giving away Star Trek ships, and I had a dealer friend buy boxes just for the prize (I also did this for “ToyShop” money). Volker bought an entire pallet of the stuff and hated it (duh), but the food banks wouldn’t take them because they were open, and the homeless shelters wouldn’t take the sealed bags. His wife explained later that she started using the Shreddies as Christmas decorations; it was a weird conversation that I’m glad I had.

Hand painted Muppet Figurines (eBay affiliate link) —

All these years, I’ve obsessed over hobby kits like these, never realizing the charm of the end result if painted by people with a bit of skill. These are wonderful!

AHI Spider-Man L’il Zips Buggy (eBay affiliate link) —

These little pushback rack toy cars are the same make as the McDonaldland ones from the 1980s; they are just fun toys that last a few days. Bonus points for that wonderful hand-drawn Spider-Man, which is slightly off-model but also loaded with character.

Marvel Comics The Thing Underoos (eBay affiliate link) —

It’s Clobber your Underwear time? Underoos have the greatest packaging design, and each hero secretly thinks of underwear. As a side note, if the Thing came at me like that, I would appreciate a change of britches. 

Knock Off Ninja (eBay affiliate link) —

My friend Courtney sent me this, as I love all things dimestore Ninja, and this one made me chuckle. It’s got gorgeous card art, but look at the depiction of poses the figure can’t obviously do. All it seems to be able to do is flail its arms wildly. As a bonus, you get oversized weapons he can’t hold. However, it all works when put together; it’s like an Ironic stew.

BooBerry Pen (eBay Afiliate Link) —

BooBerry was my favourite cereal as a kid, but it disappeared from shelves during the first grade. I was never the same, or I was fine, whatever helps. Anyhoo, I love running into the merch, although I rarely imbibe. This pen is delightful, this must have been a mail away offer as it’s pretty deluxe for a cereal prize but I’d love to be wrong.

5 Awesome Things on eBay this week

The post 5 Awesome Things on eBay this week appeared first on PS.

Ebay Link: 70s Incredible Hulk Promotional Poster- I don’t remember this thing at all but wow, it’s impressive ain’t it?

Ebay link: C3P0 Underoos– A good friend of mine in college once said to me, “I love underoos because it looks like the character is thinking about children’s underwear and well, that’s weird”. I’ve never been able to unsee it.

Nomura Star Blazers Derek Wyldstar AKA Kodai figure- Look, if you grew up watching Star Blazers on UHF as I did, then you know the pain of not having action figures based on it. Heal with this amazeballs Japanese figure, you deserve it. It’s soooooo gooood.

Ebay Link: MASH DOG TAGS- I don’t know why so much M*A*S*H merch came out at the very end, when the show was so somber. It just languished on store shelves after “Farewell, Goodbye, Amen” aired. It almost always has clearance stickers.

Fantastic Four Mirror– This hits a lot of nostalgia buttons for me, a) I freaking love the Fantastic Four and b) it’s one of those carnival prizes mirrors like you’d find at the CNE. Bang, I’m smitten.
