Weird Astro Boy Things On eBay

[Dragonrider1227]

The first one kinda reminds me of "Close encounters of the third kind" and the second one looks like the makings of a Fox network special. "WHEN DOLIPHINS ATTACK!!" XD

[Astro Forever]

It somewhat reminds me of an Astroboy poster I used to have. It must have been from the same artist.

I have that picture, but for the life of me I can't figure out where the scene comes from, or what issue or story of the manga it was in.

Thanks- that would be a good scene for the movie- hugs

Hey, kids! Today I bring you...more crap!


Argentinian pogs. Argentina...a country unable to produce merchandise that doesn't look horrible. Pogs...trading cards for kids with a lot of money and time.


More menko cards! I learned that these were just Japanese trading cards from way back in the day. You can tell these do NOT have Tezuka involved in any way. Check out the crazy gobs on Skunk and Dr. Ochanimizu...

Y'know, I could almost swear these are from Argentina.


One of three Jetter Mars toys in existance. This set has figures of Jetter and Miritan, and you can put them on Miritan's airbike or in a rocket. Sadly, the price of this is huge.


These two are original drawings for Topps gum & temporary tattoos, made back in '64, America. Of all the situations to have children emblazen on themselves, there's Astro being attacked by a magician (this was suspiciously the plot of a Robotboy episode) and a wartime parachuter eyeing Astro. These drawings, though, remind me of John K.'s style (the guy that made Ren & Stimpy and The Ripping Friends).


This is a sealed pack of the befabled gum, taken off i-Mockery's Comic-Con page. This was the only Astro-related thing out of seventeen pages of photos (not counting half of Miritan's head on a display shelf). I was really disappointed with RoG (the main writer). Even though he took a picture of everyone dressed as The Joker, he neglected to put up anything involving the Imagi booth.


More menkos. If you've ever wanted to see Tetsujin 28 crossed over with Astro Boy, this is your lucky day.
NOTE: in the very last card, there's a very, very angry Tuck (kinda like he looked like in Jetter Mars) and in second row's second card, there's Astro with Chief Whatzit and another old dude from Tetsujin.


Lastly...what about these crayons makes them even REMOTELY Sailor Moon-related, not counting the logos and Usagi on the box?

Pitty the Jetter Mars toys are expensive. They'd be a nice piece to my collection. That picture of Astro being hypnotised is interesting. Can that even happen? and as for those Sailor Moon crayons, big LOL!! I've seen stuff like that with other things. I think I once saw a toy Laser gun that had a Power Rangers sticker on it despite that it didn't look anything like ANYTHING ever seen on Power Rangers XD

Somebody in China is trying to sell a pack of shoddy Astro Bags for ten bucks. Go figure.


See this angry, angry Astro on a scooter? The auction ends around five in the morning (tomorrow), and it's currently going at $2,650.


Another French-Canadian toy! This one has three miniposters and a puzzle made of cardboard blocks, of which you'd have to turn about to made a picture. (My brother and I had a similiar puzzle of Sonic the Hedgehog, but one day he sat on the whole puzzle...)



More crazy menkos. There's quite a lot of things to see at once, even a little Gigantor, Popeye, and...angry dogs?

So cute!
