Transformers VS. Galactic Man


Look! I just saved 200 million dollars for Michael Bay!

The Transformers 2 movie this weekend reminded me of an offshoot of the franchise, Galactic Man, sold at Radio Shack in the 1980s. This was an officially licensed toy, although the name was new. Let's watch Galactic Man transform from a robot to a space pistol.

Legs go in.
Legs compacts and toes fold in. Head spikes go down. Arms twist and compress.

Legs go into the body to form grip. Arms combine and pivot.

Completed gun. Extra piece caps arms, body splits, and site comes up.

You have your choice of sounds with Galactic Man. Watch video below to hear the sounds.

Godzilla Lighter



Why didn't they think of this before? A cool metal Godzilla cigarette lighter in the flaming Tokyo box. Actually, this is a 30th anniversary edition from 1985.



Oh Yeah.
I love it when things work as advertised. Click pics for larger versions.
