Five Awesome Things on eBay this Week

[RSS]

Return of Swamp Thing Print signed by Jim Wynorski- I have a real soft spot for this movie and for director Jim Wynorski. So when I found out Jim was selling these autographed prints, I wanted to promote them. These limited edition items are also signed by composer Chuck Cirino. I insist you buy this.

Inflatable Jaws toy by Imperial- I seriously love Jaws and i hope all the stories about remaking it aren't true. I don't know why I don't have more JAWS merch but for some reason, I've never gone there. This wonderful piece has the Jaws logo on its fins as it totally should?

STAR TEAM Set- This week's Toy Ventures episode was about the Knight of Darkness, so I thought this collection was interesting. All you need is a Zeorid and Star Hawk and you can make George Lucas "pee his pants" furious by acting out their adventures.

REMCO SUPERMAN UTILITY BELT- Next to the Hulk, Superman is the one character who probably doesn't need a belt full of gadgets.I mean, look at this stuff, can you imagine Superman using handcuffs and a communicator?


Yet, I want to own this someday, damn you REMCO!

Display box of Laurel and Hardy Erasers- Rejoice Gen-Xers, we are the last generation to be marketed Laurel and Hardy merchandise and we are better for it. I have no recollection of these but yet they feel vaguely familiar and oh sooooo friendly.......

Holy appropriation Batman!! I knew Star Team was a Star Wars rip off, bad had no idea they also ripped of Evel Knievel. Kent's "cosmic Cruiser" is a dead ringer for Evel's Canyon Sky Cycle !! Which I suppose makes sense given both were Ideal products

I love, love STAR Team. If someone could knock out some 3.75" figures of those guys, I'd be a happy boy.

Everything in the Star Team came from some other Ideal Toy Line's tooling, Captain Action, JJ Armes, Zeroids, EK, it's home coming week!

Well I ordered one of the Swamp Thing posters!!

What's the deal with the funky looking sunglasses in the Superman set? Are they there so you can be a futuristic version of Clark Kent?

I really like the second iteration of Star Team, Knight of Darkness is fun as another Capotain action foe and rival of Dr. Evil.

Your comment about Laurel and Hardy is, in just a few words a commentary on the impermanence of all things. Some things are evergreen. There will never be a time in our lives in which their popularity is snuffed out. Laurel and Hardy is the opposite of that. Sure a few fringe geeks might be diehards, either honestly, or ironically. I mean, you at least have to acknowledge them if you're a Universal Monster fan. But their day in the sun is seeing its last flickers, and I agree...we are better for it.

Laurel and Hardy had a connection to Universal Monsters? I know Abbott and Costello did...

Laurel and Hardy erasers, I'd love to get all the colors and keep them as is or was, would never actually use them to
erase anything.
