Yup, I love spinoffs, so let’s give Thrift Justice Road Trip a shot. There probably won’t be many, but I felt like this deserved its own umbrella. Anyway, on the way home from our honeymoon, Lindsay and I stopped at the Williamsburg Antique Market. Don’t let the exterior fool you. It may look small, but this thing is like a TARDIS with infinite space inside! I didn’t really buy much, but I saw enough conversation pieces that I thought I’d share ’em with ya. This is primarily a picture post, but there are a LOT, so get comfortable!
I only recently started paying attention to Johnny Lightning, but this is hardly an “antique”. That said, it’s pretty cool they had the V.I.P. license. Man, I miss that show…
I can practically see this on Mr Roper.
Y’all, my penis is SO confused right now…
This was interesting. It’s the same shape as the 3M bookshelf games, but was made by Hasbro, licensed by NBC.
In the final season, Ken is replaced by G.I. Joe
I don’t care what this box says. That’s a Phyllis Diller doll!
Strawberry Shortcake. In box!
I was tempted. This was $30. Remember that for later…
This dude will dance ANYWHERE
According to this box, “Anything” either means “Be a doctor” OR “Be a dumb bitch with cute clothes”
Somewhere in America’s heartland, the American Pickers just got boners.
The accursed replacement Dukes. Surely, this must be cheaper than the Bo & Luke lunchbox we saw above. WRONG! $80!!! How are the hated replacements MORE than the beloved?!
I’ve only seen this show once, but I swear this was the least attractive cast in television history. Epstein looks like he shat himself, while Mr Kotter looks like every pedophile in every afterschool special EVER.
“Dear Santa, I want that game with the creepy mean old man who got shot.”
Another of my Pop Culture Blindspots. I know he was an alien, but did they have sex? If so, did she get cervical cancer or anything?
This thing had a lot of rust which kinda made it more distinguished. Ya know how toy customizers like to “grime up” figures and pretend they made them better? Well, this is like that, but it works.
In 80 years, the Ken doll will be wearing Barbie’s uniform, and no one will bat an eye.
According to this lunchbox, this show is about a telepath who commands 4 tiny men with his powers. I love how the invention of Photoshop has made everyone a graphic design asshole, including people who know nothing, like myself!
Well, I hope you enjoyed this version of Thrift Justice from the road. I typically show you what I bought, but it really wasn’t anything exciting. Trust me!
I don’t know much about Mork & Mindy either but I can only assume sex was a part of the deal. Why else would you harbor a freeloading alien in your attic if it isn’t for the National Enquirer payday? He must have been Morking her pretty good.
MORK AND MINDY was a crazy show. They did have sex and Jonathan Winters was the result.
Epstein shat himself! HAHA
Yeah Mork and Mindy finally got it on toward the end and had a full grown adult man baby who hatched out of an egg. I can’t remember if Mork screwed the same way he drank. (Google it)
Ahh that wall of old gas station signs would rob me of all my $dough!
