Vintage Collectibles Thread

I sold all of my vintage He-Man stuff.

Almost all of my other vintage stuff is in storage but a few of my GI Joe are on display in my collection-- Here's the jewel. A '81-'82 Snake-Eyes that looks straight out of his shell.

What kind of shelves are those, Neil?

What kind of shelves are those, Neil?

They were specialty ones that I bought on-line from a collecting site--I got the last two that they had. They were called Protech Deluxe Acrylic Display Case (By ProTech).

I found their site (but it's sold out).

There is another one there ($95) but it isn't exactly the same.

Thanks for the info.

Great Joe collection DN! Joes were one of my childhood faves but I just never got the itch to collect them again. Maybe someday.

Thanks for the info.

I think JJJ has something like that for his vintage SW. They're really nice in person.

No problem.

Thanks. I don't really collect the vintage Joes-- These are some of the ones that I had as a kid (same as my Transformers, SW, MASK, etc.). I had a great He-Man collection too but like I said, I let that go for dough. Oh well.

Has anyone had any experience with buying repro labels for vintage toys? I found a site that has some MASK ones and I'm thinking of updating a few of my vehicles but I'm not sure how the quality is.

I've used both ReproLabels.com and CobraStickers. Both were quality.

Just say no to repro labels.

Repro labels don't bother me. Repro weapons though I can't stand. The trade off must be in the material.

I remember toy departmental stores used to stock their toys so high it's like a warehouse.

Back in those days there's only so many cool stuffs out there and kids only buy toys. Now the interest has spread and it's no longer lucrative to sell as many as possible. And things kept getting smaller and smaller for kids toys to cut cost.

Wow, that's incredible - & those store shelves!!!

It's like a toy Mecca..

Just wondering which is the latest release of Transformers G1 Wheelie? Did he come with some small bot packs?

Are you talking about the Takara reissues?

I know he was included in the "Transformers Collection" reissue line, packaged with Kup. I don't believe he's been released since.

I have that. But it's not the original Wheelie. Takara Hasbro are both fine.

Saw that in the flyer posted few pages back i find him interesting.

I know this isn't the buy/sell area but I don't think anyone would care over there... I have this giant commander Voltron I'm thinking of unloading...

Needs new decals, and I think one of the arm lions is missing a spring... I'm also not sure if the base works or not since I bought this over 15 years ago and never once tried it out...

I have only seen one recently on eBay so I have no idea on a price... basically I'm looking for someone interested or someone who knows someone who might be.

If you're not familiar with this verson he stands about 2 feet tall and is made of hollow plastic.

PM me or shoot me an email at [email protected]...

Oh... and star war fans, I also have a vintage and rare Don Post Weequay mask if anyone is looking for one.

Thanks!

M.

New from ZICA Toys, The Six Million Dollar Man retro style action figures! Get ready to travel back to 1974 and relive the adventures of the world’s first bionic man. Sculpted in 3.75” scale, these harken back to the heyday of action figures, when the designs were simple and the fun factor was off the charts!

Assortment 1 includes Colonel Steve Austin (red tracksuit) and Bionic Bigfoot. ZICA Toys has big plans for this line and is hopeful that vehicles and playsets will eventually be available. Variants and exclusives are also planned but rest assured that everyone will have a fair opportunity to get them. Preorders are expected to begin soon so keep checking your favorite online retailer for more info.

Saw the thread about those yesterday... look pretty cool. I might be tempted into buying a few. Be interesting to see if they start adapting other properties that never got the 3 3/4" treatment.

Six Million Dollar Man is before my time, but those are nifty looking figures.

Good luck. These are such a pain in the *** to find MOC. I've been trying to get them too but I've only looked on ebay.

I've been looking for those as well in the wild but haven't come across one in at least 10 years. I just want them loose but even still. Anything Madballs is just bananas.
