RedM Posted July 16, 2008 Share Posted July 16, 2008 That's awesome. I have a load of the original Toys in my dad's loft. All in their packaging and hopefully they'll be a nest egg one day. Ever worked out how much you've spent? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Branners Posted July 16, 2008 Share Posted July 16, 2008 I had a few Star Wars toys saved up by my son is so mad on star wars that I let him play with them. I feel a toy never reaches its destiny unless its played with by a proper child. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pot Posted July 16, 2008 Share Posted July 16, 2008 Blimey, that's a damn good collection - I sort of regret trashing all of my old toys when I was a kid, but like Branners says, I guess a toy's there to be played with... And I'm still angry with my Dad for never buying me an X-Wing or Millenium Falcon, I had an AT-AT and AT-ST... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lexsum Posted July 16, 2008 Share Posted July 16, 2008 i have previously been a star wars trader and i would advise you to get food bags and individually bag each figure to stop scratching on the plastic cases. ideally you should also have a piece of board inside to, to stop curling of the card corners. or if you have the cash beter still would be star cases. these will not be worth as much as you paid for some time yet. (15 years maybe) the luke motorbike makes me laugh - must have missed that bit in the movies! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SILKYSMOOTH Posted July 17, 2008 Share Posted July 17, 2008 Now that is a big collection, I used to collect some too but parents though it all out from the loft, thinking it was old rubbish. Im hoping the ATAT (Dog walker) is still there somewhere in the loft. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel a toy never reaches its destiny unless its played with by a proper child. That's such a true statement. If it's a toy it needs a child!

ShamelessTT Posted July 17, 2008 Share Posted July 17, 2008 That is a monster collection!!! well done. However ive never understood collecting......few of my mates do it, just look at them in the box etc. If they just sit in a corner getting dusty id rather be pimping my car or churpsing a woman with the money LOL.

Ark Posted July 17, 2008 Share Posted July 17, 2008 I car-booted my originals, probably 15 years ago. I had my fun with them, and to this day I think the £50 I made by selling them on was much better than the potential £500 I _might_ have made, a great many years down the line - there's enough old crap in my house as it is. And woe betide your 4 year old for having fun with toys! : Still, they're your hobby, you enjoy it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
