5 Awesome Things on eBay this week

Star Trek the motion picture belt by Southbend- I knew Southbend made some cool electronic phasers and an Enterprise model but I had no idea they did the belt from the movie. I would to wear this with my best pair of pajamas but to quote Comic Book Guy "A star trek fan has no use for a medium".

HAVOC Super Agent Set- There is not enough love given to this wild toy line from the 1970s UK. It's part fashion doll, part spy complete with adventure sets, machine guns, even monsters from Outer Space. I need to cover this in a Toy-Ventures soon.

Japanese Tarzan Model kit- The description says Johnny Weismuller but that's Ron Ely, star of the 1960s TV series and the Doc Savage movie. This is incredibly cool.

Speaking of Star Trek the Motion Picture- Was there ever a more succinct movie tie in than Pajamas? I love everything about this promotion from Snickers.

Takara Universal Monsters Game- Even though I'm not sure I'd be able to figure out how to play it, I've always wanted this game. Look at that box, those figures of not only the monsters but the villagers? Amazing.

Oh wow, I've never seen any of this stuff! Those Trek pajamas and belt are sweet, but MAN that Monster Game is BOSS. I'm surprised this wasn't in Kirk Hammett's book!

That monster game is amazing. Love the font, and everything about it.

Interesting that the PJ's feature TV show artwork - Classic Enterprise and Kirk's yellow shirt -
but the movie's stylized font on both the package and the label.

[cjefferys]

Fantastic stuff as usual! I've always wanted that Takara monster game too, what great box art.

And man, I've seen a lot of Marusan model kits, but I had no idea they made a Tarzan one. And like most Japanese model kits from the era, it has a fantastic box painting.

I believe these very similar to the Horseman Police Woman sets, so about 9" tall I think.
