Some of them cost $70 a piece 
Decided to break out the Thundercats. Most these haven't seen daylight in quite some time. Not a complete collection by any stretch. The only ones I still really want to get are Bengali and Grune and the Brebils.
Mando, you are my new hero!
Shiner and Cracker both came from the lcs junk bins hence the spotting and wear.
Seb, your Joe dislay is pimp!!My 3 3/4 Gi Joe collection.
Sorry for the crappy pics but it's kinda dark here!
Awesome! All your stuff look to be in prostine condition, Deak!
Congrats on the Thundercats, I see a lot of rarer figures in there.
Joes look great as well. Those risers are a great way to display lots of figures in one space.
Super Powers are some cool figures. I had a pretty substantial amount of them but ended selling most of 'em a few years ago. Nice to see Swampthing in there as well and is that the Toybiz DC Riddler or the Argentinian one? I think I see John Stewart in there as well.
Secret Wars were pretty cool. Used to love the hell out of that Wolverine. Fine vintage.
Yeah, its surprising. I don't know much about the Battle Beasts... but its a similar story with M.U.S.C.L.E. figures. In the US there were 236 different figures, but in Japan there were an additional 180 or so sculpts.
In my picture the gumball machine (and yellow figures outside of the containers) is a complete set of the non-US sculpts. Took me nearly 10 years to complete and I invested close to $2000 to do
I'm just working on a complete set of the US, flesh colored figures which I had as a kid...
Man, how I wish I still had all my old toys, we moved around a lot when I was a kid and everything would disappear. I had near complete collections of G1 Transformers, He-Man, Thundercats, G.I. Joe, Die-Cast Voltron (Lion and Vehicle) and a ton of other stuff. This thread brings back so many memories.
cool stuff guys, I don't have ANYTHING from my childhood and never really went back in time to get them.
Thanks GB! Everyone here has a lot of cool stuff, I need to post pics of my MIB (it was sealed) Castle Grayskull. I also have a complete Kenner SW collection but don't have pics. Most of this stuff is in boxes now, they need new Billy/Besta cases.
For the US ones you don't want to pay over a $1 for any... except maybe Satan Cross (non-poster figure #236) but the non-US start at $2-$3 and can go up to $1500
And since people in the US are crazy about "The Claw" (#153); purple ones, which are said to be rare sell for close to $200
Nah, just know #s for some of the more popular ones. But I do have the poster which is an immense help... too bad I got it after having nearly completed my set using on-line resources
But come to think of it I do know the actual Japanese Names for at least 1/2 of them. Funny thing is most of the figures are duplicates of previous characters, but in different outfits/poses. Never knew that until I started getting into collecting the Japanese ones.
Battle Beats had a poster as well... only seen it once though, but I think it had names and numbers.
That's what happened to a lot of our stuff. Over time the Ghostbusters dissappeared, Silverhawks dissappeared, MOTU dissappeared. Not really sure what happened to a lot of it. I do know that both Lion-Os broke because I played with them so much.
Prog, I don't think I've got anything from my childhood except for a few Joes. Most of it's been picked up second hand throughout the years. Every once in while I get bit hard by the nostalgia bug and I track down an old gem circa 198?.
Gotta agree there! I found Captain Marvel's cape for fifty cents at a Flea Market some years ago amidst a pile of junk McDonalds toys. It took me three years to find a decent Captain Marvel (sans cape) to go with it. He'd pop up on ebay in mint/complete condition and then soar to crazy amounts. Finally scored a nice one for about $30 without the cape.
Must... see... MIB... Castle...
The original Castle Greyskull had some killer boxart. I had a cousin who I'm pretty sure had all the Masters stuff. I think that's where I first saw Faker and then a couple years later picked up the re-issue around '87 or so.
