Skybox's 1993 The Simpsons Series I Trading Cards Wiggle Card Insert, W7

From the hit animated show The Simpsons comes Radioactive Man, the Simpsons Universe’s own comic book superhero created by Morty Mann. As a parody of both DC’s Superman and Batman, he is said to have the powers of super speed, flight and nuclear heat vision, and is accompanied by his young sidekick Fallout Boy when fighting crime.

This is a rare insert wiggle card, #W7, by Skybox for their 1993 The Simpson Series I trading cards featuring the Simpsons Universe's own comic book superhero, Radioactive Man!





The front of the card features Radioactive Man delivering a knockout blow to his arch enemy Dr. Crab, while the back of the card features one piece of a nine piece puzzle set. As you can see from the pictures the corners are pointed however on the back of the card the color in three of the corners appears a little faded.

In 1993 Bongo Comics publish a real life comic book series based on Radioactive Man. Issues of the comic book series were some times published out of order in regards to their numbering and were often retro-dated to reflect the timeline of when the issue was released in regards to the Simpsons Universe.

Skybox's 1993 The Simpsons Series I Trading Cards Cel Insert, C4

Originally intended as filler material before and after commercials for The Tracey Ullman Show, The Simpsons came into their own in 1989 and took over America’s prime time television.  Today the multi-award winning animated series is setting records as the longest-running American sitcom, the longest-running American animated program, and the longest-running American primetime, scripted television series.

Here is a rare insert cel card, #C4, from Skybox's 1993 The Simpson Series I trading cards featuring America's favorite dysfunctional family sitting on their living room couch, sans Maggie, as they normally would appear during the opening credits of their television show.



In the second picture showing the back of the card there appears to be a dark circle where Bart is sitting above the Bongo logo; this is due to the lens of my camera. There is no such spot on the back of the card.

1998 Star Trek The Original Series Season 2 Barbara Bouchet (Kelinda) Autographed Trading Card

It may be difficult to imagine now but the Priceline Negotiator use to play a role as one of sci-fi’s most popular Don Jaun’s. The interstellar Casa Nova known as Captain James T. Kirk of the Starship Enterprise has managed to charm just about every female across the galaxy. From green skinned dancers to robots and even shape shifting cats, Captain Kirk held no inhibitions when it came to the ladies.

Though Captain Kirk definitely had plenty of ladies in his life one of his most memorable conquests had to be of a shape shifting alien who happen to take the form of a very attractive human female by the name of Kelinda in the Star Trek episode “By Any Other Name”. After all, his ability to seduce this previously emotionless being is what essentially saved the day.

Now, what I have here is a rare autographed 1998 Star Trek The Original Series: Season 2 trading card by SkyBox featuring actress Barbara Bouchet as Kelinda.



Barbara Bouchet is a well-known actress who has played several roles in film and television such as Miss Moneypenny in Casino Royale, Patrizia in Non si sevizia un paperino, and Mrs. Schermerhorn in Martin Scorsese's Gangs of New York.

If you are a fan of Star Trek or of Barbara Bouchet and is interested in this limited edition autographed trading card you can find it for sell on eBay by clicking here.
 

About

I've been a huge comic nerd for a long time. It was my dad who first introduced me to comics when I was very young. He gave me his small collection of comics at the time and ever since then I’ve continued to add to it. Over the years I have collected hundreds of comics, toy figures, and other memorabilia. And though I would really love to hang on to them, due to unfortunate circumstances I have to let them go. *sigh* So, the purpose of this blog will be mainly to showcase what I have up for sale on eBay. Most of the items will be comic related memorabilia but I also have a few other “types” of collectables that I hope to be getting rid of as well. And every once in a while in between the post of what I have for sell I may just post some of the crazy ideas that pop-up in my head which of course you can simply choose to ignore. Thanks for stopping by.
