GazzaGSi Posted May 6, 2008 Author Share Posted May 6, 2008 Its quite amazing really, guess people will buy anything on ebay. A chap on another forum sold a box of random bits for over a hundred quid and had less than half whats in my pics. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DamanC Posted May 6, 2008 Share Posted May 6, 2008 Chuck it on ebay quick then! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Branners Posted May 6, 2008 Share Posted May 6, 2008 let me know the link once its done. Lego prices are a little random on ebay so I will certainly watch with interest. regards Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GazzaGSi Posted May 6, 2008 Author Share Posted May 6, 2008 Should I just box it all up an sell it or sell each individual car and ship etc. I reckon it'd be easier to sell as a whole job lot...? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Branners Posted May 6, 2008 Share Posted May 6, 2008 from the stuff I have seen go past a job lot tends to get better prices but it usually has a 'special' item in it like a Harry Potter castle or a star wars droid set. Figures also get a lot of attention especially if collectable. JB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marbleapple Posted May 6, 2008 Share Posted May 6, 2008 I used to have the helecopter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michael Posted May 6, 2008 Share Posted May 6, 2008 I used to have the helecopter. Me too, did it have a little winch on it too? I have lots of Lego somewhere in the house, one of these days I'll get it out and have a play, obviously I'll leave a piece on the carpet to be stood on later too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pabs Posted May 6, 2008 Share Posted May 6, 2008 I still have LOADS of that - got lots of the technix stuff too - the huge red car with gearbox, suspension etc, got the large trucks/lorries and pirate boats too! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scott Posted May 6, 2008 Share Posted May 6, 2008 I've got lots of technic from years ago. I have kept it as i'm very nostalgic. I have loads of stuff from my younger years. Got around 40 consoles/computers etc too. Used to have loads of the really old lego, as in the actual blocks (can't see the pics to see if its the same) don't have any figures. Think it was either given away or thrown away. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edge Posted May 6, 2008 Share Posted May 6, 2008 Can we have a little play pen at japfest so we can sit there and make things from lego and technic? Maybe best creation gets a pirze! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

michael Posted May 8, 2008 Share Posted May 8, 2008 Forget making a Supra, let's pool resources and go for this record... http://dvice.com/archives/2008/05/worlds_tallest_1.php Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JustGav Posted May 8, 2008 Share Posted May 8, 2008 I've got a whole stack of lego technical at home in the loft from when I was younger. I had the fully working race car with the moving 'square' pistons and the reclining seats... Pity I don't have the plans anymore. In fact, does anybody know where you can get some of the classic plans from when lego used to be lego and not this odd shaped stuff they have these days.

AndrewOW Posted May 8, 2008 Share Posted May 8, 2008 I too have that very same large red race car, and loads of space lego. I did want to keep it for my kids, but thats a long way off. Well probably Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michael Posted May 8, 2008 Share Posted May 8, 2008 I have the red car in it's box with instructions, could probably photocopy / scan them for you JustGav but I suspect they will be online somewhere already. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pabs Posted May 8, 2008 Share Posted May 8, 2008 I too should have all manuals and paperwork for all of my lego models... they were filed away (somewhere lol) Surely they'll be online somewhere - if not shouldn't be too hard for a grown person to work out how to make it from pictures EDIT: perhaps I should remove that comment - looking at pictures it is harder than I thought! lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, mine's also in the box with instructions. Its probably the only possession I've got that's still as new. It could be worth quite a bit, if no one else had theirs as well!
