Deak, sent a PM your way regarding Thundercats

 

[Darth Waller]

I know, right? I just figured I can't collect everything so I am downsizing a bit. But I can't part with my Kenner SW figures or my GI JOES. Secret Wars and Super Powers may get the boot...maybe.

I've been known to jump into a thread and post a FS post myself.

And...

Kenner SW for life!

[galactiboy]

Yeah, I know... but they're figures I've been wanting to get into for a long time. I just have a few, but they were childhood favorites

 

[Skiman]

Kickass man!

It doesn't get too bad until you come up against the POTF figures... I probably spent more on those 17 than the whole rest of the collection

I'd still like to add a few vehicles to my collection... definitely need at least a Falcon, X-Wing and Tie Fighter. After that I'll likely be done with the Vintage figures.

Saw all these this weekend at a auction along with a AT-AT, they all went for $40+ ea.

Going to go through a couple more SW tubs tonight because I just know my daughter will ask about it when we get home.

I felt like a kid again yesterday when I was setting up the Cantina and Hoth playsets. Kids today just don't know what they're missing by not getting playsets.

 

[galactiboy]

Yeah, those sets are pretty sweet. I don't have any of them, but one day would at least like to get one of the escape pods.

 

[Skiman]

Death Star playset was there as well.

 

[galactiboy]

Yeah, that's a pretty cool one... but no real interest in owning it. Seems like you can get a good falcon (w/o box) for around $50 w/o too much trouble... and the others are a bit less.

 

[Skiman]

I was very tempted on the AT-AT, I never had it as a kid.

 

[Nintenjoe]

these are doubles so i will probably end up selling them but they're nice to look at for now.

 

[galactiboy]

The AT-AT is badass... I got one from Goodwill when I was a kid for $3 (missing a few pieces, but guns still worked) and it was a ton of fun

Would definitely like to get a complete vintage one. A guy about an hour south of me was selling an AT-AT and Falcon for great prices, but sadly someone else had them on reserve by the time I got to him

Yessir! It just showed up today. Now I need to track down some Indy figures.

 

[galactiboy]

Very cool... always liked the Indy figures, saw them once or twice in stores when I was a kid but never got any.
