Shazaam VHS Tape
$15.00
Warning: I should point out that THIS TAPE IS NOT REAL. It is FOR DISPLAY PURPOSES ONLY.
Remember that time Sinbad was in a genie movie?
No, I'm not talking about Kazaam with Shaq. I'm talking about Shazaam (1994). We all rented it from Blockbuster back in the day. But nowadays? It's like the movie doesn't exist. Nothing on IMDb, Wikipedia, or anything. Some people say I'm misremembering things, but I think there is a much more simple explanation: our reality has merged with an alternate universe and the lack of info about this movie is the only evidence. Us believers call this the Mandela Effect.
This is a uniquely made VHS replica of Shazaam (aka Shazam), the film so many 90's kids are convinced is real, despite the complete lack of evidence. The entire box is a tribute to the Mandela Effect.
This box and the labels were designed to be identical to a real life VHS release for an actual movie. The cover and the design on the back were painstaking recreations of the Kazaam box art, but adapted to resemble the collectively remembered Shazaam movie. The cover features Sinbad, star of "House Guest" and "Aliens for Breakfast". Best of all, the box also includes tons of references to other Mandela Effects: the Bearenstein Bears (Bearenstain Bears), Fruit Loops (Froot Loops), and even the Fruit of the Loom cornucopia. The description on the back, the credits, even the production studio logos, and more all tie back to popularly reported Mandela Effects.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Is the Shazaam movie actually on the tape?
Nope. There is an actual tape with a label that says Shazaam. However, if you put the tape in a VCR and press play, you won't see Sinbad grant wishes. This is a novelty item. Fun to have on the shelf or give to a friend who believes in the Mandela Effect.
Q: So, what is on the tape?
A: It's a mystery! The tapes are all repurposed VHS, so there could be anything on there. It could be a copy of The Empire Strikes Back, a couple Loony Toons, or even just some old episodes of Pokemon. You won't know until you pop it into a VCR.
Q: Do you ship to my country?
A: Yes! We offer shipping worldwide. For orders outside the US, I have tried to make it affordable as possible, but shipping is more cost effective with larger orders.
Q: How long does it take to ship?
A: Shipping is through USPS Priority Mail. Tapes are typically shipped within 2-3 days of placing your order. In the US, priority mail typically takes 1-3 business days to arrive.
