Haven't inherited mine yet. I'm sure itll just go in the safe when I do. They kick like a mule, just isn't as easy to shoot as the new stuff. I can't imagine shooting one all day. They are beautiful though.

The Palisades Toys Muppet collecting were bad arse. It's a shame they went out of business just as they were getting some traction. Some of the prototypes for sets that were never completed are really cool and it's a shame they ended the line.

I have a collection of die cast cars (Hot Wheels, Johhny Lightning, Matchbox, etc.) that is sizable enough to objectively cause concern for my mental health.

I still have all my legos and matchbox cars.

I actually just bought the Saturn V rocket lego set on a whim when it went on sale on Amazon for Black Friday. The first lego set I've bought since I was in middle school. Like I'll ever have the time to put it together....

You are my cultural brother. I suspect you might be around 47-52 years of age. The Space 1999 gives you up.

I had all of that, and I mean all of that.
*the Space 1999 were hand me downs.

I was thinking about Super Nintendo and a college football game I had the other day. It didn't have all of the school names (i.e. Penn State was Happy Valley and Texas A&M was College Station, I'm sure there were others but those are the two I can remember), and you could also make a high school and play a high school season as well. Is that the same game you have?

I don’t have pics but my mom kept a bunch of our toys. When my daughter was two, and both my sisters had only boys, she got my grandfather to bring this nice wood doll house to us for her to use. Still in her playroom. And there were chests of old toy cars, guns, transformers, He-Man characters, and LEGO’s/Construx pieces. My 5 year old son has a few but most are at her place for he and my nephews to play with.

When the star wars figures first came out we purchased full sets for our two sons, knowing they would be valuable one day. Not too long after that, the wife called me at work one day and told me she caught them in the back yard blowing them up with firecrackers. I asked some collectors later and found out that their value was seriously degraded that day. Oh well, our sons enjoyed it.

i ruined thousands of dollars worth of collector money by playing with my toys instead of storing them.
