Normally I have a healthy dose of sarcasm in my posts, but I'm totally serious with every word I'm typing. My all-time favorite show growing up was Airwolf (far beyond Knight Rider).
- It started with the smokin' theme song
- that awesome helicopter pictured above (with retractable guns and rocket launchers, "sun burst" defense system, bullet-proof exterior, and in later episodes the lazers).
- The way "the lady" looked in the "lair": Airwolf's hidden hangar in a butte in some desert.
- The characters: Strinfellow Hawk (Jan Michael Vincent), Dom Santini, Archangel.
- The cool air battles at the climax of each episode showed off what this fine specimen this vehicle and it's writing truly was.
Right now, I have to find creative ways to purchase one of the 26 helmets on eBay that are available from the show. Bids start at $700 and Buy Now is $900. This is geek memorabilia in it's purest form.
Please help!
