I have a friend who likes Ghostbusters and Christmas so I tried to get them the Stay Puft marshmallow man tree ornament that Hallmark put out in 2012 but the average price online comes out to about $100 Australian (including postage). The 2019 Hallmark Peter Venkman ornament is going for about $50. I'll pass on those.

Weirdly enough that seems to be an officially licensed kit from a lovely 1984 anime series https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ch%C5%8D_K%C5%8Dsoku_Galvion ...... which was itself a ripoff of Super Dimension Fortress Macross so I guess it still counts in a roundabout way But it also turns out that the model production company ARII were no strangers to crappy knockoffs, here's some of their classic 1978-80 plastic kits: https://www.scalemates.com/companies/company.php?id=387&p=list They're insanely collectable and these days those kits sell for hundreds and hundreds of dollars: https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/143147691334 Snowglobe of Doom has a new favorite as of 19:52 on May 20, 2021 |

I love that they just laid out the Brave Warrior America costume on the ground to photograph it and then badly photoshopped body parts into it

The GBS "Toys you never got when you were a kid" thread got me down an ARCO rabbit hole and their whole MO was to produce lovely cheap versions of popular toylines like this: Strong "We don't need more Star Wars, we have Star Wars at home" vibe

hexwren posted:what gets me (and maybe this is just me at quarter to four needing to go to sleep) is that i can't figure out what the second word in the name of the bootleg cpt. america costume is supposed to be I was confused as well when I saw it and eventually had to open the pack to discover it was HERO SKINZ which makes no sense at al

Here's one from my childhood. The rude puppet Agro which was a mainstay of kids afternoon TV here in Australia in the 80s: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_htLQwSx6Bg .... was just an Animal puppet with the red fur shaved off, the rest of his fur dyed brown and the irises drawn slightly larger The teeth, tongue and eyes are the giveaway.
