The idea of promoting "Star Trek The Motion Picture" with pajamas is kind of loaded, the film almost put me to sleep as a kid and the crew looked like they were all in their pajamas, so it's a bit of a comedy goldmine.
Thanks to my friend Corey, we get an amazing glimpse at this long forgotten promotion from Mars.
The offer was advertised on "fun sized" bags of candy bars, a rarity in my household as a kid so this never hit my radar.
$4.50 seems like a lot, I wonder how successful this promotion was.
You had your choice of Spock or Enterprise, William Shatner could be heard sobbing.
Here are the PJ's you got, note the classic TV depiction of the characters with the movie logo.
Say what you will about the motion picture, it had some sweet art.
Many thanks to Corey for sharing this little bit of "Trek history".
