    5 Awesome Things on eBay this week



    Italian Superman Flying toy- I don't know if i've ever seen this 70s item by "New Toy" before but i really like it and it's wonderful packaging design. It even has an offer for an Ourways Studios articulated Superman on the back.






    Doctor Zaius Helium Head- OH MY GOD I WANT THIS. I seriously contemplated a "Go Fund Me" to buy it. I probably won't go through with that but wow, i'm so smitten....



    Battlestar Galactica Warriors Battle jacket store poster- There can't be too many of these kicking around. I had no idea they were even offered at retail. As a kid, even though I was lukewarm on BSG I soooooo wanted to wear this to school. It's probably good that i didn't get it, I doubt it would have gone over big...









    Farrah Fawcett Knock off doll- Skateboarding Tanya is popular with Charlie's Angels characters because of that awesome swipe from the Hasbro Charlie's Angel's toy line.







    Spectreman Stamp Set- Japanese kids got cheap-o rack toys just like us, except their licenses were kind of more awesome. The seller has ALL KINDS of wonderful and tempting Spectreman items, so if you're into I suggest you visit here.

    Someone wrote about those tankhead Zaius a few years ago… kinda remember them saying only a handful of them existed, but I think everyone who had/has one has tried to sell it for big $$$, and they keep coming up for sale periodically. Supercool, but if I'm giving up that much real estate in my studio I'm going with a Lawgiver cast for a fraction of the price. Now if money and space were of no consequence…

    Love love love! the Spectreman rubber stamps. Almost bought that last week and then reality hit that I would absolutely rip that package open (carefully saving that awesome header card of course) and rubber stamp Gori and Karas/Rah all over everything in my house. Obviously someone else should own that.

      I think I wrote about that tank head with the help of my friend Corey who owns one.

      I also owned a trashed version of that stamp set and have some of those stamps laying around.

        It's bizarre (or rather, I am), I'm so much more into Dr. Gori than Spectreman.

          I think you'd be surprised at how many people share that.

            It's all about Gori!… that other guy is just a distraction!

            … even the beach ball is tempting!

              Ah, thanks for re-posting that!… Creative Rubber Co. election year antics; wonder how many they actually made/sold? I remember someone saying 5 or 7, but that could be pure speculation given the article. We must find Jules Pollack, he should be a member here!

                I like that flying Superman figure. Reminds me of a foreign version of a Remco Energized figure.

                    I saw the BSG jacket at the Bergners in the Peru mall while school clothes shopping with Ma. Of course that didn't make the cut.

                      I always wanted the Galactica jacket from seeing it in the magazine ads.

                        Me too. The warrior in the artwork really resembles Maren Jensen. When the ad appeared in Starlog, I just dreamed and dreamed.

                          I really wanted one of those jackets too, hell I still kind of do.

                          Doctor Zaius Helium Head- OH MY GOD I WANT THIS. I seriously contemplated a "Go Fund Me" to buy it. I probably won't go through with that but wow, i'm so smitten....

                          I notice that he doesn't ship to Canada (not surprising for this item) so if it were cheaper I have a feeling I'd be roped into a really interesting adventure from the US to Canada with this thing in the back of my SUV.
