I've never watched the film D.A.R.Y.L from 1985.
I was amazed to see it involves one of my favourite 'Spacex' type designs, the Blackbird SR71.
Here's a You Tube sample:
As an Eighties sci-fi flick involving a kid I expected there to be loads of collectables but no.
There's a VHS video courtesy of my attic:
There's a film tie-in paperback
An LP record soundtrack
and a single from it by Teddy Pendergrass
There are also lobby cards and cinema posters.
Surprisingly I couldn't locate a single toy, game, jigsaw or model based on D.A.R.Y.L.
There is one knockoff toy, Thunder Ball, which as far as I know has nothing to do with the movie other than the lifted box art!
Have you any D.A.R.Y.L collectables and have you seen the film?
