You have one of those? With the wings that come out. Very cool. That was my very cool as a little kid and I had the soundtract which I played to death.

Johnny Seven OMA. A friend has one but is missing some of the ammo.

That Star Trek Astro-Helmet is pretty damn sad.

I'm with Debra, that Astro Helmet looks like something that would be worn by the henchman for a low rent super villain.

Oh man, that would be the FIRST thing I'd buy. With that old NBC logo on the side...?? WAY cool retro style.

That and the Flintstones Flivver. Remco, Marx and Ideal made the greatest toys.

I love how Superman's grandly-named "Hall of Justice" is so measly. It's scaled like a subway car, or a basement "den."

An interesting movie fact (from imbd): in the excellent low-budget sci-fi feature Dark Star (John Carpenter's first movie), they used "Major Matt Mason" as the miniature astronaut for the spacewalk sequences, so the full-sized "spacesuit" costume had to be styled to resemble that toy.

Dark Star is a must see film. Incredibly funny.
