5 Awesome Things on eBay this week, Frightenstein, Charlie’s Angels, Filmation Superboy, GI Joe’s greatest foe and Fred Dryer is HUNTER!<\/p>\n

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

Custom Igor from Hilarious House of Frightenstein (affiliate Link)<\/a><\/p>\n

I had to put this on because I made it….with the help of some talented friends. It was an exclusive we did for a con we called “Mego North” which was the digest Canadian equivalent of a Mego Meet.<\/a> It was something I’m really happy I did. I’m not sure if the asking price is the “going rate” for what is a custom, but I’m just surprised one popped up.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"Charlies<\/a>

I never really got into this show as a kid, but my wife eventually pointed out some of its more camp elements, so I appreciate it more now.<\/b><\/p>\n

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

Hunter Rack Toy Set by Largo (affiliate Link) <\/a>
\nI used to really dig Hunter as a cynical teen, mainly because the show wanted to be a Dirty Harry. But it’s TV, so it couldn’t really be as gritty when people are saying, “You better pay me my STINKING money, Maaaaannn!” The episode where Hunter goes undercover as a punk is not at “Quincy<\/a>” levels, but it’s still fun. Also, Fred Dryer was likable and sold the concept.<\/strong><\/h3>\n

The only difference between this set and 70s versions of the theme is that the gun could no longer be black.<\/strong><\/p>\n

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

 <\/p>\n

Palitoy Action Man The Intruder (affiliate Link)<\/a><\/h3>\n

As a kid, this was the only member of the GI Joe Super Adventure Team that I did not have and also, did not request. I mean if one fell in my lap as a kid, OK but I wasn’t all that sold on the concept. Had I seen the Palitoy UK box for this character, I may have changed my mind, they really nailed this kind of thing.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Here’s a video on the subject I did.<\/strong><\/p>\n
