Any Star Kid who read comic books in the 70s (and I'm guessing that's pretty much all of us) will have these 4-color advertisements for Kenner's Six Million Dollar Man and Bionic Woman action figures and accessories burned indelibly into their brain matter. Hell, I actually remember these ads better than the toys themselves!
Loved the 6 Million Dollar Man action figure! I had the figure and most of the accessories, including those shown above. Being also an avid comic reader, the ads look like I just saw them yesterday. Although it was actually 35 years ago. :)
ReplyDeleteIt was cool how big the figure was too.
I had the figure as well. Oscar Goldman and his exploding briefcase, too! I was jazzed about the "cranking" arm. My G.I. Joes might have had "Kung Fu Action Grip" (TM), but could they lift a car engine? ;)
ReplyDeleteHilarious how Jaime gets stuck with a "bionic beauty salon"
