[MarioMania]

Anyone collect them??

I want too, but to expensive on ebay

 

[tmlfan]

I have some, but have had hundreds over the years... wish I kept them...I plan on rebuilding my collection after I am done with my SW stuff

I think monchito collects a few of the Transformer toys.

I wish I did!

Instead Ive got a small stash of Masters of the Universe Classics.

Id trade them for a boombox in an instant.

I know the feeling. I have a barge load of Star Wars crap (1995-2002) sitting in the attic. I'd trade all of it if I could.

The only "vintage" stuff I have left is my collection of trading cards and stickers.

Seeing this thread reminded me of a "Pawn Stars" episode where they go to a guy's house to see a MASSIVE transformers collection. IIRC, that collection was valued around $20k or more!!!!

Found it on youtube, of course...

For $10,000 I would have let them go if I was expecting a baby.

Yea, I was thinking $10k was a fair offer considering the effort it would take to piece out the collection and get max value. But, I'm no Transformer expert, and maybe the $20k he was originally asking was a very conservative estimate?

The seller should store them and just take his time and sell those bad boys piece by piece on ebay.

I think he will make alot more money doing it that way.

What a collection I wish I had it.

I grew up on it! Its on the hub now at midnight evry weekday! I DVR it and it is top priority

I had alot of the toys growing up! now I just have Roadmaster, and a toy blaster.

 

[MarioMania]

I watch it on the Hub also

But I have it on DVD

Always wanted a Soundwave, with his little transforming vulture cassette.

Still do, actually. Although Jetfire was my man. Sure he was a bit of a dick, and pretty cerebral.

But he could turn into a jet.

I think I got like $100 for him on eBay.


This is entirely unrelated - yet seems appropriate. Anybody remember a little rubber guy, that was sort of a swampish brown/green color, who was really stretchy? You could pull his appendages until they stretched a lot - and then they would snap off. But sort of fit back on again because they were made of a sticky rubber stubstance. I'm pretty sure this was a real toy I had when I was little, and not just a dream which a little bit reminds me of Swamp Thing.
