Subject: Anyone else remember...

Written By: Steve Austin on 02/14/03 at 10:20 a.m.

A toy called the Ghost Gun?  It projected an image of a ghost on the wall and when you shot at it, it put a hole on the image (which was a roll of film with the ghost images, like a roll of caps).

A toy called Shrunken Heads, no realtion to Dr. Shrinker, the tv show.  This basic bulb toy, dryed out a peeled apple that you carved a face into and made it look like a shrunken head!

Having a belt, probably a guys thing, with comic strip panels all around it.  I can swear I had a Spiderman belt like that!

I remember "Shrunken Heads".  My cousin had one.  I also remember he had the Space 1999 Eagle space ship, the ComLock communicator that worked on CB channel 14, and the laser gun.  Lucky ba$tard...  ;)

Up till recently I used to have the COMPLETE collection of Space 1999 bubble gum cards that were out during the summer of 1977 (back when Star Wars cards were all the rage).  If you put all the cards in order the backs of them formed a big poster showing the title above an Eagle landing on Moon Base Alpha.

Great show... gotta love those boots they wore.  Hahah..  ;D

Ah, Vincent Price's Shrunken Head Apple Sculpture kit. Wish I still had it, it was a lot of fun! Used it to make a Hallowe'en costume that I remember fondly after all these years, heck I may do that one this October! It was actually a toy from the Sixties, but it hung around for quite some time.
