Her outfit includes a floppy hat emblazoned with the Kraft logo, red vest and Cheeseasaurus Rex shirt with matching arm sleeves and skirt, blue leggings, red tennis shoes and a purse.

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?)
Photos are of of actual item. Climate controlled storage and minimally handled. Sold as is. Only one available.

Women want him… men want to be him… he’s the International Man of Mystery! And now you can have the one and only Austin Powers Talking Action Figure! This figure was released to coincide with the first Austin Powers movie. Austin is looking totally shagadelic in his blue velvet suit, ruffle shirt, horn-rim glasses, male symbol necklace, pistol, and Union Jack underwear! He even has a hairy chest, and oh, those teeth! This is an amazingly detailed figure and fully poseable arms and legs. 9” tall figure standing on a 1” base with a speaker.
Mike Meyers provides the original voice for 4 of his favorite sayings: “Very shagadelic!”, “Smashing baby!”, “Oh, behave!”, “Yeah, baby!” and can be played without removing Austin from his groovy pad. Very rare and very collectable.
Austin’s “package” is impressive as well, a full 12 1/2″ tall x 6″ x 3″ and covered in a psychedelic explosion of colors and photos of Austin, Dr. Evil, and one of the Fembots. Mint condition. Photos are of of actual item. Climate controlled storage and minimally handled. Sold as is. Only one available. Yeah baby!
