5 Awesome Things on eBay this week- Japanese Spider-Man, Inflatable Batman, Mattel catalogs, bootleg Frankenstein and MY PRECIOUS!<\/p>\n

These links are sponsored and eBay is getting a little crazy about how much they need me to say this. I get 20 bucks a week doing this.<\/p>\n

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

 <\/p>\n

Inflatable Batman Kite (Affiliate Link)\u00a0<\/a><\/h3>\n

I’m not sure I’ve ever been aware of this kite by Sky-Way products, my dad sold Ray-Line kits and honestly, when you have a parent in the kite industry, your needs are totally met that way. There could have been a Phantom of the Paradise Kite and I wouldn’t have known…<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"Spider-Man<\/a><\/p>\n

Japanese Spider-Man Menko Card (Affiliate Link)<\/a> —<\/h3>\n

I had a hard choice this week with Menko cards; I chose either Spidey or a series featuring Spectreman’s Dr. Gori<\/a>. I think Spidey is the crowd pleaser but part of me feels like a sell-out.<\/strong><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"1976<\/a><\/p>\n

Mattel 1976 Catalog (affiliate link)\u00a0<\/a><\/strong><\/h3>\n

I don’t have to explain my love of toy catalogues; this to me is an essential, Big Jim P.A.C.K and Space:1999? Insane year.<\/strong><\/p>\n

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

Wentoys Frankenstein Figure (Affiliate Link)<\/a>—<\/h3>\n

This figure is by SunGold and this series (which includes a Freddy, Mummy and Wolfman) was primarily sold in European and UK discount stores. As you may have sussed out, I have a soft spot for Frankenstein Figures offered through discount shops<\/a>…..<\/strong><\/p>\n

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

Collegeville Lord of the Rings Halloween Costume (affiliate link)<\/a> —<\/h3>\n

As a kid, I was aware of Middle Earth but not really into any of it signifigantly. What I do find funny, though, is the two kids I knew back then that would have nerded out to this costume? Yeah, I still talk to those dudes 40 years later.<\/strong><\/p>\n
