The Stuff From U.N.C.L.E.-The Merchandise Affair-Act III

[@JohnSmith-rn5tb]

My late younger brother had the Man from Uncle GUN set shown here- convertible from rifle to pistol-+1965

[@thomassutherland377]

I became an U.N.C.L.E agent in 1966 when a newspaper was offering the cards up. I still have it to this day. I also have the triangular badge, the corgi car , a ring, two figurines, magazines comics books and dvds. Im as much a fan of the show as I was as an 8yr old kid. In fact I'm rewatching the show at the moment.

[@Bigbeat4u]

I had most of this stuff when I was a kid. James Bond stuff, Secret Sam, Agent Zero M. I had a good time when I was young, great memories. Thanks for posting. America was different back then. It was fun to be a kid.

[@woopit2011]

Is it wrong that I am 62 years old and still want to play with these things?! :O

[@todaystarr]

It is utterly, totally and sinfully wrong! So enjoy yourself, cuz their is nothing better than gear porn.

[@jonoeschger1552]

I’m 68 now and along with my fond memories...I still have my U.N.C.L.E. Badge.

[@switcherxx]

love the music too

[@Silberdachs]

Thanks for posting this, brought back a lot of fond memories of my childhood.

[@XenaPeel]

Producer Norman Felton dies at 99, he co-created 'The Man From U.N.C.L.E' RIP Norman Felton

[@Davidkevin]

It was cool that you referenced David McDaniel's backronym for THRUSH: Technical Hierarchy for the Removal of Undesirables and the Subjugation of Humanity. Sam Rolfe didn't know about it until I told him at a convention in 1986. Mr. McDaniel had THRUSH being founded by Prof. James Moriarty's assistant Sebastian Moran after the Professor's death while fighting Sherlock Holmes at the Reichenbach Falls.

[@SoloPilot6]

Uh . . .I'm pretty sure that he knew about it in 1966, when it was sprung on him in a radio call-in show. His response was "The Technological Hierarchy for WHAT???" It was that interview which brought DMac to his attention as a writer.

[@BingCherry11]

When I was 10 years old I had a number of Man From UNCLE toys too! To my friends and I even the boxes were precious! When I or one of my friends would get a Man From UNCLE toy or game we would open it very carefully making sure the box was not damaged in any way! I had the UNCLE attache case and the UNCLE Sniper cap gun. It was fun being a kid in those days! In my Fifth Grade class picture I was the kid in the back sticking his chin out trying to look like Napoleon Solo! LOL ...LOL!!!

[@imback3200]

Man From Uncle Toys and Lost in Space Toys were the two biggest sellers of the mid 60's. I never had any Man From Uncle Toys but I did have a Star Trek Rocket Launcher Pistol, a Lost in Space Switch n Go set with the Space Chariot, a Johnny Magumba Rifle and one of my favorites was the Major Matt Mason astronaut with rocket pack and Space Crawler. I would have been a rich man if I had kept them. One more thing, Open Channel D.

[@LaMusicade4]

no kidding... i got most of the stuff for christmas! i remember the "attache case" hahaha it was awesome !

[@baldwincollins4344]

thanks for posting the toy guns, i was a owner of a atache suit case with the gun add-ons. had fun growing-up watching the tv show back in the 60s era

[@johnwagner4776]

I asked for only one Christmas toy in '65 and I got it: The big Napoleon Solo Gun from Ideal. Wish I still had it. (Mint-condition-in-box might cost >$1,000 in 2022)

[@SashineB]

Great! Thanks for sharing this. I've seen photos of the props on another site, but nobody seems to have April's communicator (she had one that looked like a small transistor radio, and it was also a sleep-dart gun.)

[@Davidkevin]

I hadn't known there were variant add-ons for the Luger, the 1911A Colt .45 semi-automatic, or a revolver. The James Bond Attache Case toy had similar add-ons, plus additionals to match the case in FROM RUSSIA, WITH LOVE. The "U.N.C.L.E.-mobile" wasn't popular with the actors as the door sill was so high that there was no non-awkward way to get in or out of it. You'll notice that the photos are of the actors standing outside the car, or already seated in it, but never entering or exiting it.

[@VoightKampf]

The car was also reported to be uncomfortably hot because it lacked AC

[@Maginel73]

2:34 - 2:37. Had one of these as a boy. Been looking for one for many years.

[@сергейКурмыза-щ4й]

2:09 A THRUSH infra-red scoped riffle, using the german UHU sight.

[@chogokin666]

I had the lighter communicator, fabulous stuff, class!

[@Potomacstud]

I am ditching my iPhone 4s for that pen communicator !

[@davidosterman2919]

my little brother had the toy UNCLE gun with the stock and barrel attachments and the badge; boy, was I jealous . . . .

[@stanneubert4911]

I had the Walther P38 carbine. I got a lot of use out of that weapons system. I wish I still had it, collecting different carbine versions would be fun as they were all based on what are now historical pistols.

[@crownprussian]

LOVED the UNCLE toys as a kid...

[@brucekuehn4031]

I had the attaché case, but I thought it rhymed with Apache so that’s how I said it. I also had a Six Finger. It was spring loaded and shot out little missiles that were easy to lose.

[@vitabricksnailslime8273]

My UNCLE gave me a bad case of THRUSH.

[@jsilence418]

Some of the most coveted toys when I was a kid , thanks .

[@soloillya]

I noticed that you had several of my guns included in this video. Thanks! Nice job on the video!

[@сергейКурмыза-щ4й]

0:44 Well, hello, Megatron!

[@diamonddog257]

Coolest!......the car looked...lotus....I can't hit the ground with an actual P-38 ....... .....Anyhow; KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK!

[@khankrum1]

I always thought that Intrucuction theme was far better than what replaced it,

[@todaystarr]

Far far far far far better.

[@yell50]

WOW great memories i was about 7 years when The Man From Uncle was shown on TV i always wanted to be a spy when i grew up and i finally made it, i am a spy of a sort, i'm a security officer lol..lol

[@tpacklick]

You are welcome and thank you for the compliment. I had fun assembling the images and editing it with the music.

[@nealbradleigh5069]

Funny, who would have thought as a kid watching the show premiere that years later, I'd be interviewing one or the armorersfor the production company! Did you ever hear the story about ATF agents bracing to PEOSECUTE the prop personnel, for violating ATF regulation? They modified functional handguns (the WALTHER P-38 and the original MAUSER unit).

[@tpacklick]

You are welcome. There was U.N.C.L.E. mania in my elementary school.

[@WalterDWormack214]

N. Solo: "Whatever happened to the special UNCLE Guns, we used to carry?" Armorer: "If you must know, They're in the special "UNCLE WING", of the Smithsonian!"

[@raphuscucullatus7078]

Those things were prototypes. When I got older, I acquired or built the real versions - Napoleon.

[@markshaw7253]

I finally got the gun after months of begging my parents. The next morning I sat on it and snapped it in half.

[@fredeinsel7983]

I used to have a replica of the Man From U.N.C.L.E. gun

[@elultimo102]

If you didn't get an unexpected visit from ATF, I'd love one of those p-38s, with all the accessories.

[@miamimann1]

Oh how we had great toys back then.....

[@jeffreylombardo782]

Dear God, I had one of these when I was 8!

[@tpacklick]

Thank you for watching and thank you for the kind words.

[@switcherx]

awww, the last music clip was the best... please rerecord and make this longer... LOL

[@chrischeshire6528]

That clip was from the opening teaser of the "Deadly Toys Affair". When Napoleon and Illya blew up the storage tank.

[@tpacklick]

Thank you for the comment. Yes, it was dfferent then, but we have our memories, and it was a great time to be a kid.

[@johnnyroxx8513]

Man I had this shit as a kid ..THRUSH......OHHHH take me back IILYA KURIAKIN......

[@tpacklick]

I find it quite bold of THRUSH to brag about " Subugation of Humanity" !!!

[@elultimo102]

@@tpacklick Long ago, I read that the THRUSH acronym was an afterthought, and was not originally part of the storyline. At first, in was just a name for the adversarial organization.

[@VoightKampf]

So disappointing that the UNCLE car was never utilized to its maximum potential. It was designed to have an array of weaponry and be amphibious. Most of those features were never seen in the series.

[@chrischeshire6528]

In was used in a Girl From UNCLE episode.

[@armandrodriguez8501]

I had no problem walking around the neighborhood with guns like this in the 1960's. Today they would call the cops if they saw a 10 year old with this.

[@tpacklick]

The Piranha car was part of a failed scheme to sell plastic car parts. It had a Chevy Corvair engine. Corvair cars were to come to be known as "Unsafe at any speed".

[@wlliebowen2043]

The Producers of the Man From U.N.C.L.E. Should have used the.Chevrolet Corvette C2 coupe or The Ferrari Daytona coupe.

[@silvershinobi7374]

Omg it's G1 MEGATRON!!! 🔥 (At 1:26)

[@BOBXFILES2374a]

I want the "Pen" sound for my cell phone!!

[@carlr0gers417]

Love tha ' armory the most ridiculous lookin' shit, way cool in the swingin' 60's , don't make no sense. 😂😂.

[@williamwurthmann1573]

Are these "MAN From UNCLE" weapons still for sale?

[@slippery396]

wow ... so I see the car was actually a Corvair ! ... anybody know more about this ?

[@yell50]

A great concept because their guns only put the enemy to sleep i cant remember the guns killing anybody if im wrong please feel free to correct me

[@wlliebowen2043]

I had The Man From U.N.C..L.E.

[@wlliebowen2043]

[@BOBXFILES2374a]
