\"Star<\/a>

https:\/\/ebay.us\/u6WoND<\/a><\/p><\/div>\n

Star Trek: The Motion Picture Belt Buckle (eBay Link)<\/a> –<\/h3>\n

This belt buckle is almost as big as the ones in the movie; they were “Graceland” big. What makes me laugh is, did anyone walk out of that movie with a desire to copy that dress sense?<\/strong><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"70s<\/a><\/p>\n

Vintage 70s Spider-Man kids shirt (eBay Link)<\/a>–<\/h3>\n

As a person actively searching for some weird licensed merch from my childhood, I thought I would pass this along. I guess to a lesser degree, if you went to Lake Chippewa as a kid, go nuts?<\/strong><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

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

Spook Chasers Action Figures (eBay Link)<\/a> –<\/h3>\n

They aren’t scared of no Specters! Spook Chasers are another comedy bootleg series by a company called Sungold, known for…stealing mostly. The Spook Chasers are pretty lame swipes at the Ghostbusters by Kenner and, as a result, are super rare.\u00a0 I couldn’t even track down a set for Knock-Offs<\/a>. Now I use this auction as a reference as I’m not up on the value.<\/strong><\/p>\n

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

Planet of the Apes Silly Soap (eBay Link)<\/a> –<\/h3>\n

In 1974, if they made it, they put Dr. Zaius on it. Do not use this if you buy it; it’ll burn like fire after 50 years.<\/strong><\/p>\n

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

Bruce Lee Black Velvet Painting (eBay Link)<\/a> –<\/h3>\n

You know that scene with Cameron in the Museum in “Ferris Bueller?” Yeah, this is my personal \u201cA Sunday Afternoon on the Island of La Grande Jatte.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n
