He’s baaaaaaaaaack!
Kinda.
Reader Vic alerted me to a sighting of Bandana Kid in the latest Go-Lo catalogue. I was skeptical at first, seeing as Bandana Kid has heretofore only appeared in catalogues for that other great discount chain, The Warehouse, but it turns out ol’ Vic was right:
The image used is actually the ‘zactly the same as one from a previous Warehouse catalogue, which is kinda weird. I dunno if The Warehouse and Go-Lo are owned by the same parent company, or if maybe The Warehouse traded Bandana Kid to Go-Lo like some albino Muggsy Bogues. Maybe next season Bandana Kid will be traded to The Reject Shop! With that big ‘Thumbs Down’ logo and Bandana Kid, Team Reject Shop will be UNSTOPPABLE!
And the Kid’s also back in the latest Warehouse catalogue, which makes me unsure where his loyalties lie. I’m pretty sure the shield/axe pic is a reprint, but the cutlass one is all-new and all-gold. What a dashing swashbuckler our boy makes!
Why would they randomly capitalise the word ‘knight’? They’re either illiterate, or this is a reference to Bandana Kid’s Daniel85-led superstardom. Be a Knight… B.. K… Bandana Kid? You decide.
So Bandana Kid is now in two national catalogues. I guess it won’t be long before we see him on TV, billboards, perhaps even… the silver screen?
LOL! I love that crazy banana kid. I forget where his name as Banana Kid even comes from. But i love him. You need to start a genre called “Banana Kid” so we can relive the BK experience.
BK lives. Bandana Kid is forever and not even death can conquer him.
I think the protagonist for the Star Wars and LOTR stories were in fact based on his real life exploits (Only they had to play some events down as that would look too unrealistic onscreen if he did all that stuff)
We need a YTMND of him.
You’re absolutely correct, not too long ago the Warehouse bought Go-Lo from the Miller’s Retail Group.
They claimed there would be cost savings by merging the two. Clearly they got the ‘pound of flesh’ from Bandana Kid.
It also got me wondering how much undiscovered Bandana Kid material may have been in previous Go-Lo brochures?
I don’t even want to think about what we’ve missed of Bandana Kid’s career over the past 10-15 years…It’s kind of like when you find a ‘new’ band you like only to discover that they have had 3 albums previously…You just feel like a big fat idiot for having missed so much greatness.
DUDE! You guys are such poseurs! I was following BK when he was creating his underground portfolio. Get off the band wagon, People.
Banana Kid, Crommo?
Come one, we were all thinking it. Someone had to say it.
Banana Kid was BK’s dad. I guess it IS genetic how he gets all the hot chicks like that.
