Boba Fett is back, and the mysterious mercenary stands revealed!

1980s Toys Generate Dollar Signs in the Latest Hake’s Auction

The 1980s! The decade where we got a glimpse of the future, and were amazed by its visions of flying cars, transforming trucks, and robots made of jungle animals. And while much is made of the music of the 1980s, it’s the toys of that era that have truly withstood the test of time. Hake’s Auctions has a variety of 1980s toys on the auction block this month, and they inspire dizzying levels of nostalgia, both for those who lived through it and those who wish they did. Check out some of the top items:

MASTERS OF THE UNIVERSE (1986) – ETERNIA SERIES 5 PLAYSET AFA 70 EX+

Ah, Eternia – home of Snake Mountain, Castle Grayskull and a little-used monorail system that connects all three. Seriously, why did He-Man never take the monorail? It would have saved a lot of gas for the Air Raider and Sky Sled. Anyway, the Eternia playset’s monorail featured the Battle Tram, Sky Cage and Jet Pack Fighter, and all seem like perfectly acceptable, all-electric forms of transportation. This massive box was marked down to $70 back in 1986, but you’ll pay a little more for it today. Starting Bid: $5,000

MASTERS OF THE UNIVERSE (1986) - ETERNIA SERIES 5 PLAYSET AFA 70 EX+

TRANSFORMERS (1985) SERIES 1 – OPTIMUS PRIME AFA 85 NM+ (HASBRO/IGA MEXICAN RELEASE)

Mas de lo que ves! That means “More than Meets the Eye” in Spanish, more or less, and that’s what it says on the box of this Mexican release of Optimus Prime. Much more rare than the US release, this version replaces the Tech Specs chart on his filecard with a full Spanish biography, just one of the many little touches that makes this a collector’s must-have. Current Bid: $2,000

TRANSFORMERS (1985) SERIES 1 - OPTIMUS PRIME AFA 85 NM+ (HASBRO/IGA MEXICAN RELEASE)

VOLTRON – DEFENDER OF THE UNIVERSE (1984) – PANOSH PLACE GIFT SET AFA 75 EX+/NM (WINDOW BOX)

Sure, you can gift someone a PART of Voltron, but then you need to know what lions they have, or which color is their favorite, or what body part they prefer to play with. Better to just gift them the full robot, with all five lions and a bevy of weapons. This gift set from 1984 is any kid’s (or adult’s) dream. Opening Bid: $1,000

VOLTRON - DEFENDER OF THE UNIVERSE (1984) - PANOSH PLACE GIFT SET AFA 75 EX+/NM (WINDOW BOX)

TEENAGE MUTANT NINJA TURTLES (1988) – TURTLE BLIMP SERIES 1 VEHICLE AFA 85 NM+ (VIDEO GAME NOTICE)

You’ve gotta love the attitude rolling off the box for the Turtle Blimp by Playmates: “Blueprints included for easy-to-follow assembly. If you’re a know-it-all, chuck ‘em!” “Collect all the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle accessories… or else!” “We’re four wild and crazy guys!” Okay, that last one was likely cribbed straight from 1970s SNL episodes, but overall we’d say the copywriter deserves a raise for making a blimp sound like a fun time. To seal the deal, it comes with a joke book. Opening Bid: $1,000

THE REAL GHOSTBUSTERS (1986) – FIRE STATION HEADQUARTERS SERIES 1 PLAYSET UKG 75%Q

With the firehouse making a new appearance in the latest Ghostbusters film, demand is sure to double for the original 1986 Firehouse action playset by Kenner. The only downside to owning this graded, 75% rated (opened but not played with) boxed set is that you can’t play with the working firepole, ghost trap, containment unit and Goop Grates. Sure you can see them all on the box, but that’s gotta be torture. Starting Bid: $1,000

THE REAL GHOSTBUSTERS (1986) - FIRE STATION HEADQUARTERS SERIES 1 PLAYSET UKG 75%Q

M.A.S.K. (1985) – THUNDER HAWK SERIES 1 AFA 85 NM+ (SECOND RELEASE, LONG MASK)

While every MASK vehicle had its own appeal – the pickup, the semi, the motorcycle that turned into a helicopter – the most iconic was definitely the Thunder Hawk, a Camaro that turned into fighter jet. (Okay, “jet” is generous, it was really just a flying Camaro.) While this 1986 release spells out “Camaro” on the box for the first time, it also features some other minor differences from the 1985 release, not that anyone will be looking closely enough to care – they’ll be too busy admiring the picture of the flying Camaro. Starting Bid: $1,000

M.A.S.K. (1985) - THUNDER HAWK SERIES 1 AFA 85 NM+ (SECOND RELEASE, LONG MASK)

G.I. JOE WEAPON TRANSPORT PROTOTYPE VEHICLE

When was the last time you saw a prototype GI Joe vehicle? This all-grey model of the Weapon Transport is made of plastic and styrene, with part numbers labeled in marker. Sure, it’s missing a tire and has a few cracks in it, but this is a piece of history, a behind-the-scenes piece of an iconic American toy line. It’s your patriotic duty to place a bid, assuming you’re an American. If not, it’s still pretty darn cool. Starting Bid: $1,000

G.I. JOE WEAPON TRANSPORT PROTOTYPE VEHICLE

HONORABLE 1970s MENTION:

MEGO WORLD’S GREATEST SUPERHEROES (1976) – AQUAMAN CARDED FIGURE AFA 75 EX+/NM

The Mego Corporation is back, churning out pop-culture icons in the 8-inch scale on a regular basis, but they only recently regained the DC license at that scale, which they did so well with in the 1970s. This 1976 Aquaman is mint on card, with a clear blister and crisp green pants, and is one of only four examples graded by the AFA. Starting Bid: $2,000

MEGO WORLD'S GREATEST SUPERHEROES (1976) - AQUAMAN CARDED FIGURE AFA 75 EX+/NM

HONORABLE 1960s MENTION:

GILBERT JAMES BOND 007 THUNDERBALL ACTION FIGURE IN BOX

While G.I. Joe was the first action figure, James Bond was hot on his trail! This 1965 Gilbert figure of James Bond as he appeared in Thunderball includes the likeness of Sean Connery, as well as a mask, snorkel and swim fins. Once you buy it, you have the right to remove the snorkel from the front of his pants, thereby avoiding awkward conversations. Starting Bid: $200

Dark Horse Direct caps off a Celebration of 30 Years of Hellboy Comics with a Hand-Numbered, Limited Edition Screenprint

Throughout 2024, Hellboy creator Mike Mignola, Dark Horse Direct, and curator Eric Garza have teamed up to produce the Hellboy 30th Anniversary screenprint line, reproducing some of the most iconic images in the fan-favorite character’s history. Now, Mignola has created a brand-new piece of artwork to complete this line of incredible screenprints and honor three decades worth of Hellboy adventures. Featuring colors by Dave Stewart, this striking piece will be available exclusively from Dark Horse Direct as a limited edition of 300.

The Hellboy 30th Anniversary Special Screenprint is the sixth and final Hellboy 30th Anniversary screenprint. While the Seed of Destruction #1, Wake the Devil 1994 Comic Ad, Dark Horse Presents #90, The Corpse and the Iron Shoes, and Pancakes screenprints all reproduce pivotal moments in Hellboy’s history, this final screenprint represents the culmination of the character’s legacy, juxtaposing images of the hero as a child and as the devilish Anung un Rama surrounded by some of his most fearsome foes. 

This new, 9-color screenprint is 24 inches wide by 36 inches tall and printed on 100# Cougar uncoated paper. Hand-numbered and limited to 300 copies, this collector’s piece is expected to ship in February 2025. The Hellboy 30th Anniversary Special Screenprint is $75.00. Fans can pre-order now and order the other screen prints in the Hellboy 30th Anniversary collection exclusively from Dark Horse Direct.

Challenge the fate of mankind with Hot Toys’ T-1000 Figure

James Cameron’s Terminator 2: Judgment Day (1991) wowed audiences with groundbreaking CGI, setting a new standard for visual effects. The film brought the return of the T-800 in a new role, tasked with protecting a young John Connor from the T-1000, a relentless Terminator made from a mimetic poly-alloy, allowing it to mimic other shapes.

Based on his on-screen appearance, the T-1000 1/6 Scale Collectible Figure by Hot Toys masterfully captures the look of Robert Patrick in this iconic role.

The figure comes with two hand-painted headsculpts: a version featuring Hot Toys’ rolling eyeball system, plus a second swap-out, battle-damaged version with liquid metal design and an adjustable left eye. This highly poseable figure features 30 points of articulation and comes with a variety of swap-out hands including three liquid metal effect forearms.

The T-1000 wears a tailored outfit including a police jacket, a shirt with badge and nametag, plus a utility belt. Additional clothing allows for a variety of display options with two pairs of pants and three types of shoes, including one with a liquid metal effect.

Accessories include a helmet, a flashlight, a walkie-talkie, a pair of sunglasses, a pair of handcuffs, a submachine gun, a pistol, and a set of magnetic liquid metal effects. A specially designed steel mill-themed base with LED light-up function allows collectors to create a cinematic display.

Challenge the fate of mankind with the T-1000 1/6 Scale Collectible Figure. Available to pre-order now!
