ZARGON JARGON

 I saw this rocket-shaped vending unit on an American auction list at the staggering price of $25,000!


Listed as a Star Wars vending machine, the only link to Star Wars I personally can see is the inclusion of a Darth Vader knockoff, the Action Man Captain Zargon Space Pirate!


Is this over-priced?

  1. you really need to ask ? Its home made! the insides aren't original and have been added by the last owner, presumably as a star wars tie in.

    1. Yes I need to ask! The whole point of my blog is to cause debate about vintage toys and collectables. Thanks for your contribution, very interesting.

  4. lots of sellers will place a phrase or word in their listings that they know will draw attention to it, even though it has nothing to do with the item being sold. I see that a LOT for MPC/Marx/Ideal/Lido etc. Little Green Army Men

    Many kits are also described as Aurora even when the kit has nothing to do with Aurora, the most famous name in plastic model figure kits.
