More Conan Collectibles on eBay!

As promised, ebay seller Johncad3 has put more of his astounding collection of Conan and related collectibles up for sale! There are so many incredible items (and many that I’ve never seen before) that I simply must cross-post a few more samples here for all to see!

First up, these three very rare Conan the Barbarian Red Nails comic books from 1975, featuring a very blond Conan!  I'm sure you'll recognize the Barry (Windsor) Smith artwork and we all know who Roy Thomas is.  I've seen thumbnails of these covers on the interwebs before, and if I remember correctly they were published in the UK.  These weren't published by Marvel, and at a glance the logo in the corner looks like that of Curtis...can anyone confirm or deny that?

 


And who the $&*$#% doesn't like balloons?  They kick almost as much ass as stickers!  Here's a vintage/rare Conan the Barbarian mylar balloon from 1982... almost 18" across, and just like brand new!


We've seen this next little fella on Crom! before.  The Dark Horse Conan "Classic Comic Book Character Series" Statue from 2005...one word: want!



And what's this?  Also from 2005, it's a Conan Animated Red Nails lobby card!  Kind of like salting an open wound seeing this, but at the same time it's pretty frigging cool!


This next item caught my eye because, well, I'm a pretty big fan of scantily clad ladies packing cold steel.  It's Faster and Larson's 7 of Swords portfolio from 1991...7 prints, 11"x14", yum yum!









How's about a press kit from Conan the Destroyer?  Black and white photos and write-ups about the movie and it's characters.  I think I got the pages a little jumbled below, but click on them and have yourself a look-see and a read, it's interesting stuff indeed!













This next item has made several appearances on Crom! but it's so ridiculously cool that when the opportunity arises, it will be seen again!  You guessed it, all 8 inches of vintage 1974 Mego Conan!


Lastly, check out this 1970's Conan belt buckle that Johncad3 describes as EXTREMELY rare.  He explains that he ordered it from a comic book as a kid, and has never seen or heard of another since...I've certainly never seen anything like it!


What's above is just a small sample of what can be yours...if the price is right!  So head on over, bid early, and bid often!
