MPI commemorative belt buckle on eBay

A very cool piece of Magnum memorabilia on eBay ... Check out the engraving on the back.

Sorry, but not sure how to attach photo from an iPad.

Tom Selleck's screen test for Indiana Jones

Funny. He sounds just like Magnum.

Only movie of MPI will be a fan film

The ship has sailed on any revival of Magnum. That goes for movies and a TV series. There just isn't a big enough, interested enough 18-34 year old male demographic that could make a new film profitable enough after 25 years since the end of the show. However, a revival could be achieved with a fan ...

Re: Higgins' watch

Maybe Higgin's Seiko digital watch was a nod to the Seikos worn by James Bond in "The Spy Who Loved Me" (1977), "Moonraker" (1979), "For Your Eyes Only" (1981), "Octopussy" (1983), and "A View to a Kill" (1985). Google "james bond seikos" and you'll see plenty of Seiko digital watches of the type Hi...

They should pull a Veronica Mars and pull this together on Kickstarter. VM raised over $2m in just a few days. I know there are other roadblocks, but perhaps fan interest as demonstrated by a fan contributed fund via Kickstarter would get their butts into gear. Then again, VM has a very young and en...

Steinhart makes a great homage to the Rolex GMT Master with Pepsi bezel for about $500. It isn't a fake or replica and has had some great reviews on plenty of watch fora out there. I think the modern Magnum would be wearing a Casio G-Shock or Edifice watch. That's really a modern version of the acti...

Why go for the off brand when you can buy a "replica almost original" Rolex GMT?

Magnum Gear: Rolex GMT Master substitute

I really want a GMT, but this is pretty close for a tenth of the price. Anybody have any other suggestions for a Rolex stand in?

Magnum's Jungle Bird shirt appears in Savages

Just saw Savages this weekend. Magnum's jungle bird shirt is worn by one of the main characters. The set design has a beachy, tropical feel to it. The theme of the movie of course is very different from Magnum.

About time. They had all eight seasons about 4 years ago. Hopefully they'll add the rest soon.

Gold Monkey

Tales of the Gold Monkey has a Magnum Mania type site too.

It's a little dated, but it does for TOTGM what MM does for Magnum.

Ahh, yes ... satire. Was wondering how long it would take for the faithful to catch on. However, Magnum is strangely addictive. That part might not be so satirical. But probably not for most because of Selleck's good looks.
