The figure comes with hand and leg shakles, a chair with rope, and even a straight-jacket in which you can thrust old Harry up. The package notes our hero's "weapon of choice" -- MAGIC!
The Houdini Action Figure can be found in novelty stores and on Amazon
Where was this when I was ten?

Recent post led me to this oooold post (omg I was 27!). I remember seeing this somewhere (eBay, maybe?) and there was nothing in it. The caption was something about how even the packaging couldn't hold Houdini. Something like that. But it gave me a chuckle. And so does the little bit of string called a "rope." I have plenty of that! Wonder if I could sell it to little figure companies. Hehe!

Yea.... Felt the same way... I should have purchased one a few years ago when their numbers were many for sale... Now looking again... And not for $35... Phssst!
ReplyDeletetrue story - about 22 years ago i ran a shop that sold Houdini Action Figures in the uk, then some chap from the magic circle asked us to get him a box of 48 from our supplier, accroutraments. So we did... Then, SHAZAM!!, like magic he disappeared. Then we had lots of Houdini Action Figures atfer that.:D no one wanted any...I write this here and now as i came across it looking for info on the Houdini Action Figures as I'm about to relist...Yes, we kept the stock! Please don't think I'm doing the hard sell, google listed this site 2nd when you search for Houdini Action Figures. :D
