Buck Rodgers Twiki Valuation :-/

[fuzzybuzzytoys]

Hi guys

Sooooo as part of a gorgeous job lot of 70s and 80s toys this weekend I found this, a blow up Twiki from Buck Rodgers!

Really cool toys with motor feet and a remote control. Love it. But I have never seen one, never seen one on eBay and have no idea on what value to put in it.

Anyone help

Oh yeah, I forgot to mention, I blew him up but then went upstairs to get my camera and my daughter decided to dress him up as Ariel!

Errrr , I hope you can still help??

You can't remember this.......... I remember spending hours looking at his picture in the catalogues - he was a full sized real robot that actually moved (well sort of)
Obviously as much as I wanted him he never made it on my Birthday/Christmas list as that would have knocked something SW off it :shock:

Pal if I had the money I'd buy it just to give it to your daughter - super cute picture

On a side note - If anyone comes across the Wilma Deering (Erin Gray) motorised blow up doll I'd definitely be interested

I would not call these rare, but they are hard to find. I assumeit holds it's air and has no holes (unless you made new ones :lol: :lol: ).......Worth around 50 to 75 in sterling.

Really, that all? Man I just paid out £10 on batteries to ****ing test it

Oh well

£195 and there's been an offer. Not bad 8)

 

[fuzzybuzzytoys]

Mine hasnt got a box. And I guess alot will depend if it fires up tonight. Fingers crossed will keep you posted

 

[tiefighterboy]

Yeah withou the box I am afraid they are not an extrme gold mine, but considering what it is...still not bad. You could get more if the moon is full and the timing is right on the Ebay.

 

[fuzzybuzzytoys]

It works like a dream. I get soooo excited to see a toy running after so many years. Beautiful.

Brilliant toy actually. Would have loved one as a kid.
