Oh, the fun you'll have with walkie-talkies shaped like bananas.

Was putting some old comics away when I found this. I was going to scan it in myself, until I found somebody else already had done the deed.

I was there in 1979 when Marvel books ran this back cover ad, so I guess I have kind of a creeping nostalgia for it.

I realize that a lot has happened in technology and toy costs in thirty years, but doesn't $13.95 sound really expensive for that?

These days, Chiquita Banana is best known for funding South American paramilitary groups and committing human rights violations! If only the power of the Banana-Compass could help them today.
