Great cover with Alfred E. Neuman as the Evil Zader!
MAD Magazine No. 203 from December 1978 features “The Force and I”, a STAR WARS Musical. Funny stuff! Both MADS feature great cover art paintings by MAD artist Jack Rickard.

1993 Fred Flintstone Talking Plush mint in box
Year: 1993
Manufacturer: Mattel
Condition: Mint figure and box
First edition vintage collectable
You can’t get much more vintage than caveman times! It’s the one and only hilarous John Goodman as Fred Flintstone from the original live action 1993 movie. Cuddly and soft, 15 1/2” tall Fred is wearing his classic sabertooth caveman outfit with blue tie and not much else. Yabba Dabba Doo! Fred says four phrases: “Wilma!”, “Down Dino Down!”, “Yabba Dabba Doo!”, and “Barney You’re My Best Pal.” This is not a pull-string, and requires one AA battery.
The box is 18” x 9” x 4” and in excellent condition. The edges of the packaging look rough in the photos, but the graphics were created that way on purpose for an authentic “prehistoric” look. Includes the original instruction booklet. Photos are of of actual item. Climate controlled storage and minimally handled. Sold as is. Only one available.
1977 STAR WARS Iron-On Book
Year: 1977
Manufacturer: Ballantine
Condition: Good condition
1st edition vintage collectable
AUTHENTIC ORIGINAL PUBLICATION FROM 1977
Original book with set of sixteen fantastic designs you can transfer to any fabric. Kid and adults everywhere wore these t-shirts in 1977 and beyond. Condition is good, however, the images have transferred slightly, causing a ghosting effect to the backs of some of the other transfer pages, but they’re still all there in original vibrant colors.
(Disclaimer: These are 40 year old iron-on transfers from the ’70s. Using these as working iron-ons is not recommended and is highly doubtful to transfer as originally intended.) But the art is still crisp and clean and classic STAR WARS. Only one book available.
1977 STAR WARS Marvel Comics #1-10
Year: 1977 and 1978
Manufacturer: Marvel
Condition: Very good to near mint condition
1st edition vintage collectables
AUTHENTIC ORIGINAL SERIES PUBLISHED IN 1977 AND 1978
First edition vintage collectables – Not reproductions
In 1977, the very first Star Wars comics were released. The ones you see here were purchased from the local drug store in my tiny southeastern Minnesota hometown. We knew which day comics were delivered, so we were able to get the very first issues. I collected the first 10 issues. I read them once, and they went into collector sleeves, into my closet and into the past. I opened them up recently and scanned the covers. You can see they’re in near mint condition. No tears, scratches or other damage. The corners are all clean and unworn and have been stored in plastic pouches. Fantastic shape for comics printed 40 years ago.
#1-6 illustrate the Star Wars original story faithfully from beginning to end. These are the original issues as they were printed in 1977 by Marvel- not reprints. I only have one of each and they’re gone.
BONUS: Buy issues 1-6, and receive issues #7-10 FREE! Issues #7-10 do not follow the storyline of the sequals / prequels, but are an interesting spin-off of the STAR WARS franchise.

1999 Austin “Danger” Powers Ultra-Cool Talking Action Figure v1: “Horny” in Package
Year: 1999
Manufacturer: McFarlane Toys
Condition: Mint condition in mint package
First edition vintage collectable
Yeah baby! It’s the one and only Austin Powers, nearly naked with a chest full of curly hair. Wearing only Union Jack underwear, Austin is totally shagadelic! This toy made the news in 1999 when some found the text on the package and the randy phrases a little too “adult” for children. There were multiple versions. This one has Austin saying “Do I make you horny baby, do I?” on the front, and includes a sexy dictionary, along with a mirror, a martini glass and olive on a stirrer. The martini glass and olive stirrer were very small parts, and removed from later versions because of the choking hazard. A second version was made with different phrasing (see other model by clicking here).
Austin is about 6” tall, and in his original packaging, which is in mint condtion. Mike Meyers provides the voice, which is in the base. The tab has never been pulled on either version, so it should speak when removed, but it’s not guaranteed. (Why would you ever open it anyway baby?)
