\"Sesame<\/a><\/p>\n

Sesame Street Needlepoint (eBay Link)<\/a> –<\/h3>\n

Usually, I wouldn’t say I like to make blanket statements, but your house isn’t a home without this. How can you even sleep in that flop house?<\/strong><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"Hulk<\/a><\/p>\n

Incredible Hulk Train Set (eBay Link)<\/a> –<\/h3>\n

Hulk Smash Choo-Choo! All I got is Hulk is not really a merchandisable character, save for those fists from the early 2000s; those were wicked.<\/strong><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"Miracle<\/a><\/p>\n

70s Miracle Whip Belt Buckle (eBay Link)<\/a> –<\/h3>\n

This was sent to me by my friend Courtney who has a cool belt buckle Instagram you should follow<\/a>.\u00a0 Like, who would…EVER..wear this? Remember when Miracle Whip did that badass Gen-X campaign that felt like a Mr. Show parody<\/a>? That is the only thing relating to this stuff that has brought me joy.<\/strong><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"Kenny<\/a><\/p>\n

Black Velvet Kenny Rogers\u00a0 (eBay link)<\/a> –<\/h3>\n

I bet this smells like a whisky explosion in a cigarillo factory. Papa? Is that you?<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"Condor<\/a><\/p>\n

Condorman Crunch Baskin Robbins sign (eBay Link)<\/a> –<\/h3>\n

Next time you complain about the latest thing Marvel or DC pooped out, remember Condorman was the only Superhero movie 1981 had to offer. In terms of merchandise, we got a novel, comics by Gold Key and an ice cream flavour that I didn’t enjoy and that’s it. I thought of Condorman a lot during “Black Adam, ” which helped. I don’t want to know what’s in the Black Adam ice cream; its probably tears and a lock of Henry Cavill’s hair.<\/strong><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"Shogun<\/a><\/p>\n

Shogun Warriors Knock off\u00a0 Puffy Stickers (eBay link)<\/a> –<\/h3>\n

Bonus item, I love Knock-Off stickers based on Japanese properties. I have fond memories of ersatz Ultraman and weird Gatchamen.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n
