I actually started this before Christmas. A very intimidating project for a not so saavy 'bag' maker. But I powered through, it isn't perfect! But I love it!!

El hombre quiere convertirse en Dios y la máquina en hombre. La cuestión es: ¿Quién de los dos actúa como un robot?
Kenner "Elegant Lady" outfit for the Bionic Woman. An outfit that shows waaay too much cleavage for a child's toy no matter how you tie it.
Updating my Flickr with Bionic Lego custom models. This is Steve Austin's villa. The model is based on the Big Jim Kung Fu club from the same era. Now instead of being a place for training it's a place for fun with the best 70's technology.
Before Hiro on Heroes, there was Steve Austin - The Six Million Dollar Man. Before Buffy Summers on Buffy The Vampire Slayer, there was Jaime Sommers - The Bionic Woman. Now, television's classic wonder people of the 1970s are back and stronger than ever in - THE BIONIC BOOK: THE SIX MILLION DOLLAR MAN AND THE BIONIC WOMAN RECONSTRUCTED, written by best-selling author Herbie J Pilato (Bewitched Forever, The Kung Fu Book of Caine).
Co-billed as the Cybernetic Compendium To TV's Most Realistic Sci-Fi Superhero Shows, THE BIONIC BOOK is chuck full of commentary culled from Pilato's exclusive interviews with Bionic stars Lee Majors (who played half-superman/half-mechanical marvel Steve Austin), Lindsay Wagner (Jaime Sommers - Steve's female counter-part and one true love), series creator (and science fiction novel icon) Martin Caidin, executive producer Harve Bennett (who would later help to ignite the Star Trek feature film franchise), producer/director Kenneth Johnson (The Incredible Hulk and Alien Nation) and actor Richard Anderson, the latter of whom portrayed Oscar Goldman - Steve and Jaime's stoic but understanding supervisor on both shows (and who has penned the book's foreword).
Much more than a mere TV trivia guide, THE BIONIC BOOK explores in-depth the social, psychological, medical and scientic influence, appeal and message behind two of the most popular and heroic science fiction television programs of all time.
Astrayds The Crystal Worlds - The Outer Worlds Of Khrysthos Kharnel by Daniel Arrhakis (2023)
A bionic alien civilization but with crystal-metallic similarities with an almost infinite average life span.
Alloys of rare metals and crystalline networks are organized into different tissues and anatomical forms and can remain inactive for long periods of time in a crystallization process similar to viral forms but much more complex.
Klystron (*) , a planet of rare metals and crystalline clusters similar to a gigantic Geoid, is the main planet of a planetary conglomerate called Astrayds.
The strange set of planets escapes traditional planetary orbital systems and was discovered by Khrysthos Kharnel, a first-order space explorer.
His records were compiled in a set of diaries that are in the Mars Library and were for a long time considered pure artistic invention until a probe that accompanied the exploratory ship was found adrift, two hundred years later in Moon Europa's orbit.
The images that the probe revealed came to revolutionize the way we see alien civilizations in so-called Outer Space.
This series was based on the drawings and reports of Khrysthos Kharnel in his diaries and the records and images from the Apotheos probe that was in Astrayds.
(*) The classification and designation of the planet was named after the space explorer who discovered it Khrysthos Kharnel.
The true name of the planet remains a mystery to this day, as the language used by the civilization that occupies it cannot be translated into a known language.

Back Row:
Kenner Bionic Woman Figures with Mission Purse and NASA track suit in their original boxes. The NASA doll still has her application to join the Bionic Woman Fan Club, which I did. I have the original certificate and sticker and will photograph it what I can find a suitable frame for it. You can also get a peek of my newest Dr. Rudy Wells 8" figure from Big Bang Pow. I always wondered why Kenner never thought of producing an action figure for this character. Probably because there were three different actors that portrayed the character, they probably couldn't decide which mold to make. Oh well, I'm glad Big Bang Pow resolved that for us with making a figure with three interchangeable heads, one for each actor that played Rudy Wells on TV.
Front Row left to Right:
Steve Austin in his undercover OSI mission outfit. Next is Jaime Sommers with hazel eyes wearing a fashion called Peach Dream, which resembled her dress from the episode Bionic Beauty in her 1st season. Next up is a Bionic Woman 1st edition with blue eyes wearing a designer budget fashion called Party Pants. This figure still has her original rubber roll up sleeve which I managed to keep in great condition. Today, I would dare attempt to roll it up for fear of breakage but thanks to a few collectors who have managed to duplicate Kenner's recipe for her rubber arm (as shown in the next and final figure), I'm not worried too much.
We move on to Katy, one of the rarest and most expensive figures in the Bionic Woman toy line with two detachable face plates, one resembling Jaime Sommers and the other Janice Whitby, the actress who portrayed Katy, Dr. Franklin's 1st fembot. What a shame that there wasn't a Peggy Callahan doll but she was a tiny thing anyways. She was, however, Jaime Sommer's best friend and Oscar Goldman's secretary.
Finally we come to another 1st edition blue eyed beauty wearing a customized black suit with a black & white neck scarf. This figure represents the Bionic Woman when she was resurrected during the premiere of the 3rd season of The Six Million Dollar Man called The Return of The Bionic Woman when Steve and Jaime infiltrate a refinery owned by Carlton Harris. I basically took her mission jumpsuit and used a poly dye black, a pair of black loafers from a Ken doll figure and a random neck scarf purchased on eBay. Let me add that the 1st generation Bionic Woman figure had a tendency to break at the foot, a costly kink in the doll by Kenner that was corrected in the later versions of the figure.
The rest of my photos are various angles of my collection. Some of my un-pictured playsets include the Bionic Beauty Salon, The Bionic Woman Sports Car (Why red, when Jaime drove a metallic blue Datsun, now Nissan 280Z, The Bionic Woman board game, A custom Maximillion dog, The Six Million Dollar Man's Bionic Transporter and a whole mess of misc. fashions and accessories I purchased and am playing around with. I hope you enjoyed my photos and will continue to add new ones as time and money allows.

No biological birds were harmed in the making of this video. This is a remote controlled bird called an Avitron.
All mechanical systems require fine-tuning once in a while. Working on my arm is always challenging because it often requires more than one hand.
