    Plaid Stallions Bionic Bubble Bath



    From the "Stuff I hadn't seen before but now can't live without" department comes this Six Million Dollar man bubble bath container from the UK. I guess in the 60s they called these "soakies", I just call this thing awesome. Many thanks to Ebay Seller RetroToyBoy for the photo submission.

    More after the (Slow Motion) jump




    How crazy cool is this thing?


    A good close up of Steve's killer head sculpt, it's crude but you can totally see Lee Majors in there. Arrrgggh I want this!




    I imagine Ebay searches for "Noveltime" will increase this year...

    Fantastic! I wonder if they made The Bionic Woman too?

    What an AWESOME container!!! I would have loved that as a kid. Doesn't it make you scratch your head sometimes when you see these amazing products limited to one country, when they were worthy of worldwide distribution?
    It's not how hard you hit, but how hard you can be hit and still move forward.

    It's interesting they used the same font and picture from the Kenner box. Well at least a version of that pic.-



    Before I read this was a UK product, I thought it might be an Avon item. BTW, Did Avon exist in the UK? Or some kind of parallel? Any of our UK folk have any background on this cool item?

    If a Mego figure of God did not exist, it would be necessary for EMCE to invent him.
