Anyone old enough to have played with Matchbox cars back in the 60s? Here is my collection - and no, these are not the ones I had
all those years ago.

This is an awesome HULK toy from 1978. You could pump him up and he would get larger. LOOKS A LOT LIKE BOWEN'S SMACKDOWN HULK (my all-time favorite Hulk). Stands about 12" tall.

These are all the BATTLE BEASTS I could find. They're pretty beaten up, with mis-matched weapons :)

" put heem in de camel clutch, break he's back! den f'k his ass!!" :lol

Oh Iron Sheik..

I loved those wrestling figures, you held them by just the top of the card they were on and the weight alone from the figure would crease the card easily.I had the ring and maybe 40 figures(including sheik and volkoff).Castle Greyskull was another childhood fav of mine but, did not compare to the day i got Cats Lair(Thundercats) under the tree.
 
Nice stuff guys!

Those Marx figures are amazing.

I still need one of those GB Firehouses for the new figures...
 
I have extras of some more Joe's but they are boxed up these are some photos of whenever I had them last out...

.

Love the Lone Ranger, I have LR, Tonto w/headband, Butch, and Red Sleeves all pretty much near mint. These were great as a kid. Mother bought me the horses as a bride to learn the alphabet.

I also had the plastic Fort Apache set when I was a youngin, I noticed your are missing some of the figures that came with the set.

Calvary man walking with gun over shoulders carrying a pheasant, and my favorite; kneeling Indian with arrow in his back/side!

Oh and the Totem poles and tepees.
 
Yodason,

Your Matchbox collection is very cool, it reminded me so much of my late brother's collection that I had to go dig some out and snap some shots. Here are just a few in his collection.

To think I used to take these out in the mud and play with them, then lie to him when he came home and said I never touched them, I'm sorry brother. :monkey3

These are just a few items from his collection, I have many more such boxes. My brother's name was Andrew and he was a Truck Driver by trade, and if you couldn't tell, he loved his trucks. Miss you Man!
