I think the bigger question is, why are you holding it loud and proud?

I feel we lived in a simplier and to an extent better time... from the toys, to the tv shows to the women...

And that pic is an example of the women and the true beauty that we were blessed with for the age.

The 80s were a good time for me. I was still young enough to have not had any deaths in the family. Everyone was alive and healthy.

Agreed. It was a fun time all around us. Music, movies, tv, toys, cartoons, family. Even with hard times, there was a joy there. Memories galore... all that led me to you guys now and my extended family.

Yep. I've since lost 3 grandparents, a parent and an aunt.

Space discovery was thriving, there wasn't much war in the world (certainly less terrorism), Reagan was a good President, the economy was doing well, prices were reasonable (I still remember my 86 cent ESB figures in 1980), you could afford to take your entire family to the movies, OJ was still an American icon... XXX theaters were still around... And lastly, mainly for me and Something Sexy, the Milwaukee Brewers were a great team (with Molitor, Yount, Gantner) and went to the World Series!

Whats wrong with OJ? I still drink it. What do you drink? Apple, grapefruit, what?

Wrong OJ! Coincidentally, OJ is back in the news this week. He wants a re-trial. HA! They should tell him "OK, we'll let you have a re-trial for the robberies, if you'll let us have a re-trial for the double-murders as well!" It's all or nothin, OJ!

Better take 2 bibs with you. Going to be a full meal.

All comes down to Sunday. I see us trouncing Newcastle. and Sunderland will be fighting tooth and nail.

I knew OJ was back in the news. I'm in Las Vegas after all. It's big news here.

I was just giving you a hard time.

You give everyone a hard time.

I had an pic of my older brother opening an x-wing at Christmas back from the '78 or so... so when the POTF2 line came out, I got him one of the new x-wings, and snapped a pic right as he opened it just like the ol '78 pic. Pretty cool. He now has a pic of him as a kid, and an adult nearly 20 years later opening an X-eing at Christmas.

Dude, that's awesome. If you can post pics of that. I wish I had pics of me with my toys as a kid, I don't have many pictures of my childhood at all.

They do look nice. The solution for wanting to read them is to have either nice hardcover copies of the story lines on your shelves, or even just beater trades. There is definitely a schism between collecting comics, which we all admired as kids, and looked forward to new comic book day, which I remember being on Friday, and bolting off the bus at the end of the school day, hitting the bike, and high-tailing it to my local comic shop; and collecting them again twenty or thirty years later, slabbed in a CGC graded envelope...

I have some comics that I'd love to CGC but it's mostly signed issues that I would love to preserve and I already have them in trades as well. However, I know they have a weird thing for signed comics.

That stinks.

Ehh, it is what it is. I lucked out and got that Thuggee 2 weeks ago for $36 which was a steal. This set would have yielded me a double that I would have had to sell. Maybe I'm just meant to find Mola and Indy cheap on their own. It will be more fun this way.

Holy crap! That must have went for a pretty penny.

It ended at $247 which is $47 above my limit. The only reason I would have paid a few $ more is because the Mola had almost a perfect clear bubble which EXTREMELY rare with these figures.

The 80s were a good time for me. I was still young enough to have not had any deaths in the family. Everyone was alive and healthy.

You're lucky. I lost both Grandfathers in the 80's, my Mom in the 90's and both Grandmothers in the 00's. I've dealt with death too often in my short life.
