I have always had a fondness for “Tank Girl” although I don’t think I’ve ever sat down and read an entire comicbook. I’ve just seen frames from the books and of course the Lori Petty movie which people seem to love or loathe. I loved it because at the time it was really freakin’ rare to see women kick ass. I do remember that the target roundel showed up here and there but I didn’t even know what that was about at the time. I just thought she was making herself a target which fit in with her M.O. perfectly. I also didn’t think of her riding a scooter. A yak-like animal and well, a tank. So I was very happy to come across these images and things all started clicking into place. It is a British comic after all.

The poster magazine up top is available for £6.99 at this site.

The other cover can be considered a bit of Rare Swag but the tenacious among you will no doubt find it.

And for a little mid 90s nostalgia, watch the Tank Girl trailer here.

I would love to know what magazine this uh, spread came out of. If any of you out there have scooter toilets like this, please take a snap and send them on. I had heard of this idea before but had never seen it actually executed.

Thanks to Cassie for this find!

There’s a new group up on Facebook that is another great source for ScooterSwag – in this case toys! Lots of familiar faces posting here but also new friends too who are just as fanatical as you guys. Not sure who turned me on to this but thank you!

Recently spotted on eBay this album is from the Japanese duo Pizzicato V and came out in 1987. (Japan CBS Sony 07SH-1939 Promo) I wasn’t able to find out very much about the record so I’m posting “Baby Love Child” — my favorite song from the band:

It’s nice that this porn DVD doesn’t just taunt us with a nice scooter on the box. There’s actually a scooter in the movie itself, driving around Paris. Now I’ll bet you’re wondering “Just how many times has porn been featured on ScooterSwag?” Well, here ya go.
